If virus scan profile is not set up properly then while uploading files through NetWeaver Gateway (File Upload/Download through NetWeaver Gateway) it will throw an error “Virus scan profile /SCET/GUI_UPLOAD is not active” as below. We worked with our basis team to get it resolved. Here are the steps.
Error:

Solution Steps:
1) Go to transaction 'VSCANPROFILE' and make sure /SCET/GUI_UPLOAD profile is not active.

2) Go to trtransaction: /n/IWFND/VIRUS_SCAN (Configuration of virus scan profile for gateway).
Current Settings: Virus scan profile is switched on for /SCET/GUI_UPLOAD.

3) Remove virus scan profile and Switch off virus scan check box. Execute.

This message should appear.

Now virus scan issue should be resolved and you should get a HTTP status code 204.
