java.lang.NullPointerException

, ,
1

WE are trying to send idoc from sap to BC. In Routing>Transaktions we get roll back error and we are not able to see the sender and receiver. When we checked in SM58 (Trfc monitor) we get an error (java.lang.NullPointerException ‘IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS’).
We have also attached the screenshot of the same for your reference. By the way, SAP user which i use have SAP_ALL privileges.
Could anyone please let me know why this happens.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi ESIMov,

I suspect the one of field data type is not supported by webM and its causing this issues. Usually it happens due to Character set type definition mismatch (Uni Code or Non Unicode).

Go thru all the fiels and identify the data type by executing a look service thru SAP adapter service Admin page.
Also increase the log level, to print the incoming data.

Hope this helps to start with.

Hello,
Thank you for your reply. I am very confused. But I think we are problem with RFC, because we found these trace files :

esimov,
did you ever resolve this, i see the last posting was july
I have the same error
my situation is this was working fine, up until the r/3 system was upgraded to ECC6 and Unicode
It feels to me like a version incompatibility either jvm/jre or jco
but i have changed various things and not got it resolved

thanks in advance for any pointers

regards
graham

i have changes the setting in my listener from unicode to “No” but then also we are receving same error while sending the idocs from SAP system lerror ike “JCO server could not create server function”

Hello RJ,
You can check this aspects…
1.change the setting in your listener from unicode to “Yes” (test again)
2.Check the privileges from the User which you posting idocs.

Thanks Esimov,

That a partially resolve solution of my requested posted.
but i want to add one more thing like we have to do same setting in SAP system while configuring RFC destination like Unicode (check radio button setting in SAP system)
1 check radio button in SAP system for unicode while rfc setting
2 change setting in Wm listener Unicode value to YES.
3 publish all manedatory value in idocs
now i am able to view the idocs coming from SAP side with sender,receiver & msgtype values

Thanks
RJ

Hi,
SAP system in our organisation was also upgraded to Unicode (will move to ECC later as well) and I received exactly same errors in SAP Business connector 4.5 while receicing RFC calls. I changed the setting in the listener and selected ‘Unicode Listener’ as yes.
