System_failure error with the function module HTTP_POST

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

While executing the function module "HTTP_POST" ,sometime we are getting the error "System_Failure" exception.

Can anyone tell what could be the reason for this exception,any configurations need to be done on SAP???

For this FM we are passing the RFC destination"SAPHTTPA" as one of the paratmeter and

The two import paramters we are passing to this FM are

URI :

http://10.74.40.31:8686/ArchiveBridge/?informaticaArchive&contRep=IA&sumFile=MYTA_SUMMARY_2009082006...

Destintion : SAPHTTPA

Thanks all in advance.

Hi,

Check if any proxy is maitained in the client by going into transaction

SICF-> Goto-> HTTP Client Proxy -> HTTP LOG TAB.

If there is anything maintained under Host name and port, if yes you need to specify the IP address while calling FM HTTP_POST

under PROXY as

192.168.0.1:8080 where first part is IP address & 2nd part(8080) is port.

Also test connection for SAPHTTPA under SM59 to see if its properly configured.

Hi Amit,

Thanks for your answer.I have checked both client proxy settings and SAPHTTPA settings both are good.

The issues I'm getting the System_failure error randomly,

what could be the reason for getting this error randomly.

Thanks & Regards

Have you reviewed the ICM trace file? Set the trace file setting on the highest level, clear the file, and re-run your post. What version are you using? Why the old function module and not the object oriented method?
