  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_ADM_BIN_MSG114 - MIME type mismatch: Given &1 received &2 (DPS) ?

    The SAP error message ESH_ADM_BIN_MSG114 indicates a MIME type mismatch in the context of the SAP Enterprise Search (SAP ESH) system. This error typically occurs when there is a discrepancy between the expected MIME type of a document and the MIME type that is actually received during processing.

    Cause:

    The error message specifies that the system expected a certain MIME type (denoted as &1), but received a different one (denoted as &2). This can happen due to several reasons:

    1. Incorrect Configuration: The MIME type settings in the SAP system may not be configured correctly for the document types being processed.
    2. File Format Issues: The file being uploaded or processed may not be in the expected format, leading to a mismatch in MIME types.
    3. Content Repository Settings: If the content repository settings are not aligned with the document types, it can lead to this error.
    4. Document Type Registration: The document type may not be properly registered in the system, causing the MIME type to be incorrectly identified.

    Solution:

    To resolve the MIME type mismatch error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check MIME Type Configuration:

      • Go to the transaction code SICF (HTTP Service Hierarchy Maintenance) and check the MIME type settings for the relevant services.
      • Ensure that the expected MIME types are correctly defined.
    2. Verify Document Format:

      • If necessary, convert the document to the appropriate format.

    4. Check Document Type Registration:

      • Ensure that the document type is properly registered in the system. You can check this in transaction OAC2 (Document Type Maintenance).
    5. Update or Reconfigure:
