Ask your Basis guy if HTTPS service is enabled in your system.

You can achieve this at TCODE SMICM -> GoTo > Services.

HI Heber

HTTPS is enabled

Are you trying the connection from an enterprise site? Aren't you behind a proxy?

Maybe you should fill the proxy settings when creating the connection.

Could you check it please?

Hi,

Dear Raghu,

1.   Try uncomment the following and test it as what is the message you are getting.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

*            WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

2.  Please verify the user-id and password again..! 

3.  Did you try the same url directly in browser, to see any proxy path..

Hi,

Remove "https://" from your host string.

i.e use "xxxx.aspx" instead of "https://xxxx.aspx"

As Export parameter "scheme" takes care of the protocol to be used http or https.

Hi,

there are some changes that your code needs :

1. First of all http://xxxx.aspx is an invalid address.

     a URL consists of 3 parts - "protocol used(http/https)" + domain("www.abc.com") + path      ("/xyz/pqr/")

     So your URL should be like - "https://www.abc.com/xxx.aspx".

2. In parameter HOST store domain. It will be like

     host = "www.abc.com"

3. Use integer instead of text literal for value of parameter SCHEME.

     i.e scheme = 2 instead of scheme = '2'.

4. After you set the request data , You need to set the path.

     Use

     cl_http_utility=>set_request_uri( request = client->request

                                                        uri  = uri ).

     where variable uri = "/xxx.aspx'       "uri contains path

5. After call of method http_client->sent( ) and http_client->recieve

     check for last error message using

     if sy-subrc <> 0.

      call method client->get_last_error

                                    importing code = subrc

                                    message = errortext.

6. At the end close the connection using

     call method client->close

                                    exceptions http_invalid_state = 1

                                    others = 2.

Hope following this resolves your issue.

Check if you are behind any proxy server and add the proxy settings if so.
