• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /UI2/BASIS_UTIL106 - SSL should be inactive for HTTP connections for &1 ?

  The SAP error message /UI2/BASIS_UTIL106 indicates that SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) should be inactive for HTTP connections for a specific service or endpoint. This error typically arises when there is a misconfiguration in the system regarding the use of SSL for HTTP connections.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Issue: The system is trying to establish an HTTP connection while SSL is enabled, which is not appropriate for certain services that are meant to use plain HTTP.
  Service Settings: The specific service or endpoint may not support SSL, leading to this error when an attempt is made to connect using SSL.
  Network Configuration: There may be network settings or firewall rules that are interfering with the SSL connection.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Service Configuration:
  
  Verify the configuration of the service or endpoint that is causing the error. Ensure that it is set to allow HTTP connections without SSL if that is the intended use.
  You can check the service settings in transaction SOAMANAGER or relevant configuration transactions.
  
  
  
  Adjust SSL Settings:
  
  If the service is intended to use HTTP without SSL, ensure that SSL is disabled for that specific service. This can usually be done in the service configuration settings.
  If SSL is required, ensure that the service is correctly configured to support SSL connections.
  
  
  
  Review HTTP/HTTPS Settings:
  
  Check the HTTP and HTTPS settings in the SAP system. You can do this in transaction RZ10 or RZ11 to see the parameters related to HTTP and SSL.
  Ensure that the parameters icm/HTTP/enable and icm/HTTPS/enable are set correctly based on your requirements.
  
  
  
  Network Configuration:
  
  If there are any network devices (like load balancers or firewalls) in between, ensure that they are configured to allow the necessary traffic and are not enforcing SSL where it is not needed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the connection again to ensure that the error is resolved.
