HTTP method not allowed error from Gateway

[steven_chen2]

Hi,

When I test my odata service in GW Client(/IWFND/GW_CLIENT), it always says “The specified HTTP method is not allowed for the resource identified by the Data Service Request URI”. (it works well with sdata). I cannot figure it out and we are blocked. can anyone help me here? thanks.

here are the information about my implementation and testing env, I implemented an action to save counting document.

Here is the CountingDoc entity and return entity

*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Entity: Counting Document header
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  lo_entity_type = model->create_entity_type( 'CountingDoc' ).  "#EC NOTEXT
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'countingID'      iv_abap_fieldname = 'PHYSINVENTORY'                   ).
  lo_property->set_is_key( ).
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'fiscalYear'      iv_abap_fieldname = 'FISCALYEAR'        ).
  lo_property->set_is_key( ).
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'siteID'          iv_abap_fieldname = 'PLANT'   ).
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'stgeLocID'       iv_abap_fieldname = 'STGE_LOC'        ).

     .....
  lo_entity_type->bind_structure( '/SRSMOB/STOP_COUNTING_DOC' ).

  lo_entity_type->set_creatable( abap_true ).

  lo_entity_type->set_updatable( abap_true ).

  lo_entity_type->set_deletable( abap_true ).

   *----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Entity: ExecutionMessage
*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  lo_entity_type = model->create_entity_type( 'ExecutionMessage' ). "#EC NOTEXT
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'type'  iv_abap_fieldname = 'TYPE'         ).
  lo_property->set_is_key( ).
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'id'  iv_abap_fieldname = 'ID'         ).
  lo_property->set_is_key( ).
  lo_property = lo_entity_type->create_property( iv_property_name = 'number'  iv_abap_fieldname = 'NUMBER'         ).
  lo_property->set_is_key( ).
  ...

Note:

Here is the POST action in the model,

lo_action = model->create_action( 'SaveCountingLineItemList' ). "#EC NOTEXT
  lo_action->SET_HTTP_METHOD( /iwbep/if_mgw_med_odata_types=>gcs_med_http_methods-POST ).
  lo_action->set_return_entity_type( 'ExecutionMessage' ).
  lo_action->set_action_for('CountingDoc').
  lo_action->set_return_multiplicity( /iwbep/if_mgw_med_odata_types=>gcs_cardinality-cardinality_1_n ).

  lo_parameter = lo_action->create_input_parameter( iv_parameter_name = 'countingID' iv_abap_fieldname = 'PHYSINVENTORY').
  lo_parameter->bind_data_element( '/SRSMOB/STOP_VALUE_CHAR' ).

  lo_parameter = lo_action->create_input_parameter( iv_parameter_name = 'fiscalYear' iv_abap_fieldname = 'FISCAL_YEAR').
  lo_parameter->bind_data_element( '/SRSMOB/STOP_VALUE_CHAR' ).

I didn’t paste the runtime code here since the request never reaches there and sdata works.

I am using GW Client (/IWFND/GW_CLIENT) to do the testing.  No ~CHECK_CSRF_TOKEN  is set. So CSRF security is enabled and I don’t need to worry about this security token since I am using GW Client. My url and error looks as below.

url: /sap/opu/odata/SRSMOB/STORE_OPERATIONS/SaveCountingLineItemList?docId='300000314'&fiscalYear='2013'

here is the meata data for this function import:

- <FunctionImport Name="SaveCountingLineItemList" ReturnType="Collection(STORE_OPERATIONS.ExecutionMessage)" EntitySet="ExecutionMessageCollection" m:HttpMethod="POST" sap:action-for="STORE_OPERATIONS.CountingDoc">

- <Parameter Name="countingID" Type="Edm.String" Mode="In">

- <Documentation>

<Summary />

<LongDescription>Value</LongDescription>

</Documentation>

</Parameter>

- <Parameter Name="fiscalYear" Type="Edm.String" Mode="In">

- <Documentation>

<Summary />

<LongDescription>Value</LongDescription>

</Documentation>

</Parameter>

</FunctionImport>

thanks.

regards,

Steven

Hi Steven

This question gets asked a lot!

You are trying to POST to a query, you can only POST to a single entity.

eg

/sap/opu/odata/SRSMOB/STORE_OPERATIONS/SaveCountingLineItemList('100000001)

not

/sap/opu/odata/SRSMOB/STORE_OPERATIONS/SaveCountingLineItemList?docId='300000314'&fiscalYear='2013'

Cheers
