Summary :
Error connectivity issues with BEx Analyzer due to RFC_ERROR_COMMUNICATION are generally caused by an inactive SAP gateway host or a closed TCP/IP port designated by 33xx (where xx is the SAP system number). Ensure the host system is operational by issuing a ping request to the specified IP address. If unresponsive, a system boot may be necessary. Confirm the relevant TCP/IP port is open, and if required, start or restart the SAP gateway service. TCP/IP ports should be verified against entries in the services file under the 'sapgw' or 'sapgwxx' format, located typically in Windows system directories.
