Problems with HTTP handler

Mon Feb 9 05:35:35 EST 2004

Hi,

Just to let you know that we found out the cause of the problem.  We had not
set our WF_HANDLER in transaction SWR_WEBSERVER in the client in which we
were testing in.

We now have another problem that the approval task (TS21300111) does not
complete as it is not receiving its terminating event EXTSRV COMPLETED even
though the compensation approval has been completed.  Does anyone know how
and where this event is raised?  Is it via the portal or the backend system?

Thanks

Chris

Chris,
What release is your SAP system?
The configuration requirements differ depending on the release.

Hi Mark,

I have been told that we are on the latest version of the UWL.  I think that
you still have to publish the URL in the backend as if you look at the code
on the method Process on the business object EXTSRV it looks in table
SWKHANDT - URI of Workflow Launch Handler for external HTTP Services.  I am
not sure if I need to put an entry in this table and if I do how I go about
doing it!

Cheers

Chris

Hello Chris!

Have you got the most up to date version of the UWL installed? Have a look
on iviewstudio.com to find the most up to date version and documentation.

It used to be the case with the Execution handler (which preceded the most
up to date version of the UWL) that you had to publish a URL to the backend,
not sure if this is the case with the UWL too.  Have you gone through the
MSS cookbooks? These might point you in the right direction.

Cheers,

Mark

Hi,

We are trying to get the standard SAP Web-Approval Process Comp. Adjustments
template WS21300038 working but we are having a problem with the approve
task TS21300111.  We are still getting the message 'HTTP handler for
starting an external service cannot be read'.  We have implement note 646601
and changed override.xml file to task = "TS21300111",iview =
com.sap.pct.hcm.wcpmain.approval, but it is still not working.  Is there
something else we need to do?  Has anyone got this to work?

Regards,

Chris
