  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRPC_XI_PROXY008 - Only TypeCode=1 is supported in &1 ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WRPC_XI_PROXY008 Only TypeCode=1 is supported in &1


    Cause

    This error typically occurs in the context of SAP PI/PO (Process Integration / Process Orchestration) or when dealing with proxy communication in SAP systems. The message indicates that the system encountered a data type or serialization format that it does not support.

    • TypeCode=1 refers to the primitive data type in the SAP proxy runtime.
    • The error means that the proxy runtime expects only primitive types (TypeCode=1) but received a complex or unsupported type.
    • This often happens when the proxy interface or the message structure contains complex types or collections that are not supported by the current proxy runtime or adapter.
    • It can also occur if the message payload or the data type used in the proxy is not aligned with the expected format, e.g., trying to send a complex object where only primitive types are allowed.

    When does it occur?

    • During proxy message processing (sending or receiving).
    • When using certain adapters or communication channels that only support primitive types.
    • When the proxy interface or the message type is incorrectly defined or mismatched.
    • When the XI runtime tries to deserialize a message and encounters an unsupported type.

    Solution

    1. Check the Proxy Interface Definition:

      • Verify that the proxy interface uses only supported data types.
      • Avoid complex types or collections if the runtime or adapter does not support them.
      • If complex types are needed, ensure the runtime and adapters support them.
    2. Adjust the Message Type:

      • Modify the message type to use primitive types where possible.
      • If complex types are necessary, consider using different communication methods or adapters that support them.
    3. Update or Patch SAP System:

      • Sometimes, this error can be due to a bug or limitation in the SAP kernel or proxy runtime.
      • Check SAP Notes for any patches or updates related to proxy runtime and XI adapters.
    4. Check Adapter/Channel Configuration:

      • Ensure the adapter or communication channel supports the data types used.
      • For example, some adapters only support primitive types and not complex structures.
    5. Review the Payload:

      • Check the actual XML or message payload being sent.
      • Make sure it conforms to the expected schema and data types.
    6. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for the error message or related notes.
      • Example SAP Note: 1789270 - "WRPC_XI_PROXY008 Only TypeCode=1 is supported in ..."

    Related Information

    • TypeCode in SAP Proxy Runtime:

      • TypeCode=1: Primitive types (e.g., string, int, boolean)
      • Other TypeCodes: Complex types, arrays, etc.
    • Proxy Runtime Limitations:

      • Some proxy runtimes or adapters only support primitive types.
      • Complex types require specific handling or different adapters.
    • SAP PI/PO and Proxy Communication:

      • Proxy interfaces must be designed according to the capabilities of the runtime.
      • Mismatches between interface definition and runtime capabilities cause errors like this.
    • SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Always check the latest SAP Notes for updates or known issues.
      • SAP Help Portal for Proxy Runtime and XI Adapter documentation.

    Summary

    Aspect Details
    Cause Proxy runtime received unsupported data type (only primitive TypeCode=1 supported).
    Solution Use only primitive types in proxy interfaces, adjust message types, check adapter support.
    Related Info Proxy runtime TypeCode definitions, adapter limitations, SAP Notes (e.g., 1789270).
