APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The IDoc listener actually opens two connections:
    Server and Destination, and the Destination one can use ASHOST
    and MSHOST.
    I made a modification that separates the two and uses the MSHOST
    parameters when load balancing is enabled.
    

Local fix

  • use 6.5 Idoc listener binaries as they are compatible with v7.
    

Problem summary

  • The IDoc Listener in version 7.0 cannot connect to the SAP
    message server in a load balanced configuration (regardless if
    separate or stand alone gateway).
    Symptom is the error "Connect from SAP gateway to RFC server
    failed" in the IDOC listener log
    ( <IIS
    Location>\Server\DSSAPConnections\<Connection>\IDocListener.log
    )
    

Problem conclusion

  • Code fix. Enabled the use of MSHOST parameter when Load
    Balancing is enabled.
    

Temporary fix

  • Use the IDOC Listener binaries from version 6.5.0.2 (replace
    whole folder DSSAPbin)
