Hello Folks,
after updating from B2B Addon SP3 to B2B Addon SP4 we face this odd error within the EDI Separator receiver channel. The channel settings are completely default - no check boxes checked, no acknowledgements in place. Before the update the scenarios were all fine.
The scenarios look like this:
FILE/OFTP -> EDI Separator
EDI Separator -> customer/vendor specific scenario -> ERP
However this error occurs only for EDIFACT messages. VDA messages run fine. In our B2B version we do not have EANCOM entries in place - we just use edifact and VDA messages.
These are the entries within the message log:
| Information | Message entered AF MP exit bean and will now be passed to the JCA adapter |
| Error | MP: exception caught with cause java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method java.lang.String.equalsIgnoreCase(java.lang.String) of a null object loaded from local variable 'cDescr' |
| Error | Message could not be forwarded to the JCA adapter. Reason: while trying to invoke the method java.lang.String.equalsIgnoreCase(java.lang.String) of a null object loaded from local variable 'cDescr' |
| Error | Exception caught by adapter framework: while trying to invoke the method java.lang.String.equalsIgnoreCase(java.lang.String) of a null object loaded from local variable 'cDescr' |
| Error | Delivery of the message to the application using connection EDISeparator_http://sap.com/xi/XI/EDISeparator failed, due to: com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException: java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method java.lang.String.equalsIgnoreCase(java.lang.String) of a null object loaded from local variable 'cDescr' |
The system settings are:
VM Name: SAP Java Server VM
VM Vendor: SAP AG
VM Java Version: 1.6.0_65
VM Runtime Version: 6.1.059 24.45-b11
Kernel Version: 7.40.3301.363358.20140408103655
What I have done so far:
-checked if the correct adapter meta data (SP4) is in place
-checked if the correct SP4 sca files are deployed
-deleted b2b table entries and reuploaded them again
Any ideas how to fix this error? What needs to be checked also?
Thank you in advance.
