• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_HTTP067 - System is a handler server: No remote handler entry available! ?

  The SAP error message SWF_HTTP067 indicates that the system is configured as a handler server, but there is no remote handler entry available for the requested service. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow or when using the SAP Business Workflow system, where a handler server is expected to process certain requests.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The most common cause is that the necessary configuration for the handler server is missing or incomplete. This could mean that the system is not properly set up to handle the specific workflow or service request.
  Network Issues: There may be network connectivity issues preventing the handler server from communicating with the required remote systems.
  Incorrect Routing: The routing configuration for the workflow might not be set up correctly, leading to the system not being able to find the appropriate handler.
  Authorization Issues: The user or service account may not have the necessary permissions to access the handler server.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SWFVISU to check the configuration of the workflow and ensure that the handler server is correctly defined.
  Verify that the handler server is correctly registered in the system and that the necessary entries exist in the relevant tables (e.g., SWF_HTTP).
  
  
  
  Define Remote Handler:
  
  If the handler server is not defined, you may need to create a new entry for the remote handler. This can typically be done in transaction SWF_HTTP or through the relevant configuration settings in the SAP system.
  
  
  
  Check Network Connectivity:
  
  Ensure that there are no network issues preventing communication between the systems. You can use tools like ping or telnet to check connectivity.
  
  
  
  Review Routing Configuration:
  
  Check the routing configuration for the workflow to ensure that it points to the correct handler server. This can be done in transaction SWF_CUST.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user or service account has the necessary authorizations to access the handler server. You can check this in transaction SU53 after attempting to execute the workflow.
  
  
  
  Restart Services:
  
  Sometimes, simply restarting the relevant services or the entire SAP system can resolve transient issues.
