Consume webservice from abap system using X509

[Former Member]

Hello abap experts,

I am having difficulties consuming a secure SOAP webservice in ABAP, and was hoping one of you could help me.

The webservice uses both SSL and X509 signing, The SSL connection part is working fine, the connection is accepted by the receiving party, but the SOAP messages are not signed by the X509 certificate. I have searched around, and never found a defenitive answer, wether it is even possible.

I created the logical port in the consumer proxy manualy (without wsdl), and get the option to select a certificate for the SSL connection, but I never see any settings regarding transport security (X509 signing). When i researched this I do see screenshots where this settings are available, but the screenshots are always of older versions of the SOAMANAGER.

The system I am trying to configure this on is 7.40 SP5

thanks,

Jorg

Hi Jorg.

Any progress on this issue?

Unfortunatly not.

Are you facing similar issues?

[gunnlaugurth_einarsson]

Hi Jorg.

Yes .. the very same issue. This is no problem using .NET and/or Java(SOAPUI). However this seems to be not that straight forward via SAP SOAP. We are on an older system 7.02 SP7.

I have some links that I think might be useful:
