• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ICF_SYSTEM_LOGIN006 - No switch to HTTPS occurred, so it is not secure to send a password ?

  The SAP error message ICF_SYSTEM_LOGIN006 indicates that the system is attempting to process a login request over an insecure HTTP connection instead of a secure HTTPS connection. This is a security measure to prevent sensitive information, such as passwords, from being transmitted in an unencrypted format.
  
  Cause:
  
  HTTP Instead of HTTPS: The request is being made over HTTP rather than HTTPS. This can happen if the URL used to access the SAP system does not specify HTTPS.
  
  Configuration Issues: The SAP system may not be properly configured to support HTTPS. This could be due to missing SSL certificates or incorrect settings in the Internet Communication Framework (ICF).
  Browser or Client Settings: The client (browser or application) may not be configured to use HTTPS, or the URL may have been entered incorrectly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Use HTTPS: Ensure that you are accessing the SAP system using the correct HTTPS URL. For example, instead of http://your-sap-system, use https://your-sap-system.
