  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRT_WSP2078 - User switched to internal [ICF alias]. Client/VH:&1. Path: &2&3&4 ?

    The SAP error message SRT_WSP2078 indicates that a user has switched to an internal ICF (Internet Communication Framework) alias. This typically occurs in the context of web service communication in SAP systems, particularly when using the SAP Web Services Runtime (WSR).

    Cause:

    The error message can be triggered by several factors, including:

    1. ICF Configuration Issues: The ICF service might not be properly configured or activated. This can lead to the system trying to access a service that is not available or incorrectly set up.

    2. Authorization Problems: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the specified ICF service or the underlying resources.

    3. Client-Specific Settings: The error may arise due to client-specific settings or configurations that are not aligned with the expected settings for the web service.

    4. Service Activation: The web service might not be activated in the system, or the service endpoint might be incorrect.

    Solution:

    To resolve the SRT_WSP2078 error, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check ICF Service Activation:

      • Go to transaction SICF.
      • Navigate to the relevant ICF service and ensure it is activated. If it is not activated, activate it.
    2. Review Authorization:

      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the ICF service. You can check the user roles and authorizations in transaction SU01.
    3. Verify Configuration:

      • Check the configuration of the web service in transaction SOAMANAGER. Ensure that the service is correctly configured and that the endpoint is valid.
    4. Check Client Settings:

      • Ensure that the client settings are correct and that there are no discrepancies between the client and the server configurations.
    5. Review Logs:

      • Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
    6. Test the Service:

      • Use the SOAP UI or similar tools to test the web service endpoint directly to see if it is reachable and functioning as expected.
    7. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific web service you are working with for any known issues or additional configuration steps.

    Related Information:

    • ICF (Internet Communication Framework): This is a framework in SAP that allows for the creation and management of HTTP services.
    • SOAMANAGER: This transaction is used for managing web services in SAP, including configuration and testing.
    • Authorization Objects: Ensure that the relevant authorization objects are assigned to the user roles to access the web service.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a technical expert familiar with your specific SAP environment.
