Systemcopy - R/3load (sapinst)

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am trying to export BW3.5 system using sapinst (R/3 load method). In the phase of executing export jobs , I am getting the error in SAPSSEXC.log by mentioning it as altername too old.

The log files are below.

RSCP ERROR: Altername NameTab too old

Hi,

I have the same problem as it is described in your message. Can you please tell me what you did to solve your problem?

Thank you.

Best Regards

A typical reason could occur when copying UC->UC

See note 991481

In "general export parameters" you should check that setting for  "Data File Code Page" has been changed from default value 1100 to the right one for unicode (eg. 4103 UTF-16 Windows little endian / 4102 big endian systems).

Please adjust to appropriate CP - learn more about this setting using TA I18n or Report RSCPINST

Agreed - As Sachin Tendulkar (Little master) used to say " Its never too late"

Thanks for refreshing it out
