• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRT_WSP076 - Only one WSDL root element permitted ?

  The SAP error message SRT_WSP076: Only one WSDL root element permitted typically occurs when there is an issue with the Web Service Definition Language (WSDL) file being used in an SAP system. This error indicates that the WSDL file contains more than one root element, which is not allowed according to the WSDL specification.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Root Elements: The WSDL file may have multiple <definitions> elements or other root elements, which is not compliant with the WSDL standard.
  Incorrect WSDL Structure: The WSDL might be incorrectly structured or malformed, leading to the presence of multiple root elements.
  Concatenated WSDLs: Sometimes, WSDL files are concatenated or merged incorrectly, resulting in multiple root elements.
  
  Solution:
  
  Validate the WSDL: Use a WSDL validation tool or an XML validator to check the structure of the WSDL file. Ensure that it has only one root <definitions> element.
  Correct the WSDL: If you find multiple root elements, you will need to edit the WSDL file to ensure that it conforms to the WSDL specification. Remove any extra root elements and ensure that the structure is correct.
  Regenerate the WSDL: If the WSDL is generated from a service or application, consider regenerating it to ensure it is correctly formatted.
  Check for Merging Issues: If the WSDL was created by merging multiple WSDLs, ensure that the merging process is done correctly, maintaining a single root element.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or the documentation of the web service you are trying to consume for any specific requirements regarding the WSDL format.
  
  Related Information:
  
  WSDL Specification: The WSDL specification defines the structure and rules for WSDL files. Familiarizing yourself with the WSDL 1.1 or 2.0 specifications can help in understanding the requirements for a valid WSDL.
  SAP PI/PO: If you are using SAP Process Integration (PI) or Process Orchestration (PO), ensure that the WSDL is compatible with the version of the software you are using.
  Error Logs: Check the SAP application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages that might provide additional context for the issue.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SRT_WSP076 error and ensure that your WSDL file is correctly formatted for use in your SAP environment.
