• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMPS_PRO071 - No mime header ?

  The SAP error message RMPS_PRO071 "No MIME header" typically occurs in the context of SAP's document management or web services when the system expects a MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) header but does not find one. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when uploading files, sending emails, or interacting with web services.
  Cause:
