HTTPS calls to HTTP_AAE sender channel

[former_member541302]

Hello Guys,

We have got a requirement to send HTTPS calls to the HTTP_AAE sender channel.

I have done the SSL configurations as per the link below:

http://scn.sap.com/community/pi-and-soa-middleware/blog/2013/05/13/believe-it-or-not-ssl-enabling-fo...

I was able to test this channel through "SOAPUI" tool when SSL configurations were not there in PI with the below url(kind of):

http://ABC:57000/HttpAdapter/HttpMessageServlet?interfaceNamespace=ABC&interface=ABC&senderService=ABC&qos=BE

However, when I changed it to HTTPs because of the SSL configurations in PI, its giving me network related error.

https://ABC:57001/HttpAdapter/HttpMessageServlet?interfaceNamespace=ABC&interface=ABC&senderService=ABC&qos=BE

Please, would you be able to provide a clue how can I test my configurations for this sender channel with SSL configurations?

Note: I cannot test end to end until I move my changes to QA. Our DEV environment is not open for the vendor and before moving to QA I want to make sure that HTTPs communication with HTTP_AAE would be successful with the vendor by using the new URL.

Hi Simran,

My few cents.

However, when I changed it to HTTPs because of the SSL configurations in PI, its giving me network related error.

How you  restarted the PI java instance after SSL installation?

If you want to test https connection without any scenario developed. You will need to do it with an external tool like telenet + openSSL: check these lnks:  telnet for testing ssl/https websites | Bearfruit

Hope this helps.

Hello Vila,

I restarted the java instance for SSL and now the below url is working.

https://ABC:57001/HttpAdapter/HttpMessageServlet?interfaceNamespace=ABC&interface=ABC&senderService=ABC&qos=BE

However, SOAPUI is a good tool to test these calls with SSL certificates.

Basically you have to import client certificate in soap ui to test.  If you want help in configuring you might also want to see the below link

Hi Simran,

I think you can test HTTPs with SOAP UI. Check this one.

Thank you Nabendu, I didn't know about this option before.

Hello Azhar,

That link was helpful, but does that mean "HTTP_AAE" cannot be implemented with SSL configurations? SOAP + HTTPS is the only option in PI to use SSL during communication with PI.

Even after activating the SSL configurations in NWA of PI, HTTP_AAE sender channel is still working without even using SSL certificate on SAPUI tool. How is this possible?

When I am trying to implement with SOAP adapter its ending up into error.
