IF_HTTP_CLIENT

[Former Member]

Hello.

I am trying to receive a file by HTTP. The file is in a server in the same network as SAP. This server uses IIS and requires authentication.

I am using the following piece of code:

DATA: url TYPE STRING,

http_client TYPE REF TO IF_HTTP_CLIENT,

return_code TYPE I,

content TYPE STRING.

url = 'http://192.168.0.1:6100/file.bmp'.

CALL METHOD CL_HTTP_CLIENT=>CREATE_BY_URL

EXPORTING

URL = url

IMPORTING

CLIENT = http_client

http_client->send( ).

http_client->receive( ).

http_client->response->get_status( IMPORTING code = return_code ).

content = http_client->response->get_cdata( ).

http_client->close( ).

When i run the program i get a popup that asks for a login. I put in the correct login but it wont accept it (Note: The login includes a domain: domain\user) and after 3 times i get a 401 error from the server.

How can i authenticate in the iis server?

Thank you

call method http_client->request->set_authorization

EXPORTING

username = 'xyz'

password = 'xxx'.

Hi Silva,

I have use the same thing thing in Different Way, Like..

We Don't have any http server . but as per our requirement we have to upload a file into SAP Daily a night 01.00 AM. We have tried this this thing with local PC in the same network but it will not work , Then we create a FTP server .

We have created our legecy system like that it's will donwnload the file in FTP server at 12.00. and SAP will catch from there.

hope it will be useful.

Thanks

Swati....
