Short Dump during SE38

[Former Member]

Hello SAP Experts,

We have installed SAP ECC 6.0 in our company. With database as MS SQL Server 2005. Now when the ABAP developers are working in SE38 it is giving short dump with message "PXA_NO_FREE_SPACE" Can anyone give me some solution.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

I have restarted the system but still in ST02, the column Swaps has three " Field definition = 1,699 and Program=18520 and generic key=17" these are red.

The server has 408GB HDD, 4GB RAM and it is ECC 6.0 IDES. Please suggest.

Thanks & Regards

You could increase the buffersize to about 400000 to begin with and you'll also going to need to review all the abap/heap parameters...

It's all described in the note!

Restarting the system will only clear the buffer but you'll get this problem again.

Presently it is 150000. It doesnt mention anything in the note.

Hi ,

Dont increase of you size.. pleasse chk in st02 of your buffer values... if in red color , try to restart the sap server only.

This could solve this issue..

I don't know what kind of hardware are you using or if this is your DEV, QA or PRD box... but in any case if 150000 is the value or your abap/buffersize parameter then is probably too small.

Follow the note i gave you and all notes related.

150 000 is much too small.

For your information, on our ECC 6 system, we set the abap/buffersize to 1 500 000 .

Yes, that is ten times more than your value !

Even if this value we some times get a little bit of program swaps.

We use servers with 32 GB of RAM wih 50 GB of page file.

Hi ,

still if your facing the error, then try to increase the parameter abap/buffersize = 900000..
