Hello,

The requirement is to read Bank Exchange Rates from the website,

http://www.nbp.pl/Kursy/xml/a141z080721.xml

I have tried to read it using the Function Module 'HTTP_GET'

with the parameters:

ABSOLUTE_URI http://www.nbp.pl/Kursy/xml/a141z080721.xml

REQUEST_ENTITY_BODY_LENGTH 1000000000

RFC_DESTINATION SAPHTTP

BLANKSTOCRLF X

TIMEOUT 5

But I get the error as

Exception CONNECT_FAILED

Message ID: 04 Message number: 100

Message:

Connect Error: NiHostToAddr proxy error: NIEHOST_UNKNOWN

Please let me know what am I doing wrong, or if there are some configurations that need to be done. Thanks in advance.

P.S: Deserving Answers will be given points.

Hi,

i make it in this way:

CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_GET'

EXPORTING

ABSOLUTE_URI = URI

RFC_DESTINATION = 'SAPHTTP' "s. THTTP PräsenServer

  • RFC_DESTINATION = 'SAPHTTPA' "s. THTTP AppliServer

BLANKSTOCRLF = 'Y'

in URI is the webaddress.

It works OK.

Is there the correct entry in table THTTP?

Regards, Dieter

Hi,

it looks like using SAPHTTPA not SAPHTTP.

Try the FM with "SAPHTTPA" not "SAPHTTP".
