  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SPRX125 - Interface definition missing in WSDL document ( missing) ?

    The SAP error message SPRX125 indicates that there is a problem with the Web Service Definition Language (WSDL) document being used in your SAP system. Specifically, it suggests that the WSDL document is missing a <portType> element, which is essential for defining the operations that the web service can perform.

    2. Service Configuration Errors: There may be misconfigurations in the service definition or the service itself in the SAP system.
    3. Network Issues: If the WSDL is being fetched from an external source, network issues could prevent the complete WSDL from being retrieved.
