• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWFND/CM_COS_TEST002 - Request URI missing ?

  The SAP error message /IWFND/CM_COS_TEST002 Request URI missing typically occurs in the context of SAP Gateway services, particularly when a request is made to an OData service without a proper URI. This error indicates that the system is expecting a specific request format, but the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) is either missing or not correctly formed.
  Cause:
  
  Missing URI: The request sent to the OData service does not include a URI, which is essential for the service to identify the resource being requested.
  Incorrect Configuration: The OData service might not be properly configured, leading to issues in how requests are processed.
  Client-Side Issues: The client application (e.g., Fiori app, Postman, etc.) may not be sending the request correctly, possibly due to a coding error or misconfiguration.
  Network Issues: Sometimes, network issues can lead to incomplete requests being sent to the server.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Request: Ensure that the request being sent to the OData service includes a valid URI. The URI should point to the correct endpoint of the service.
  Review Service Configuration: Verify the configuration of the OData service in the SAP Gateway. Ensure that the service is activated and properly set up.
  Test with Tools: Use tools like Postman or SAP Gateway Client (/IWFND/GW_CLIENT) to manually test the OData service. This can help identify if the issue is with the service itself or the client application.
  Check Client Code: If you are developing a custom application, review the code to ensure that the request is being constructed correctly, including the URI.
  Debugging: If you have access to the backend, consider debugging the service to see how the request is being processed and where it might be failing.
  Check Logs: Review the SAP Gateway logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
