Button "Ping Web Service" is missing in SOA Manager

[Former Member]

Hi all,

we created a consumer Proxy and also configurated a Logical port for it. Our SAP Partner advises us to ping the port for testing now. However, we cannot find the button "Ping Web Service" in the designated area. It is missing.

Does this happen because we are having an old Version of SOA Manager or because we have restrictions in Access rights? Unfortunately our whole IT department cannot Display this button.

Hi Markus,

Ping button is available since 7.02 SP8 if I remember correctly. I can't tell from the screenshot, if it's older or not.

Without the ping, simply test the service from SE80. It's slightly bit more steps to do, but you can check, if the connection works or not.

See wiki page for steps: http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/x/9AF7DQ#HowtoconfigureaServiceConsumer-QuickTesting

Cheers,
