[Former Member]

Dear Guru's,

After completing the installation of solman 7.0, started the post-installation and we planned update the support package level to current level, so we started to apply the support packages, in the beginning itself if ask for SPAM update and we copied the SPAM/SAINT (SAPKD70038) update file to EPS/in. Now its throwing an error message.

Start STMS and delete the current queue. Then start SPAM again and apply the SPAM update.

Dear Markus,

As per your message, I tried by deleting the queue and started the spam update again, now its throwing different error.

Reason for error: CANNOT_DETERMINE_EPS_PARCEL

saying that it doesn't have anything in the EPS Parcel.

- Stop SPAM (leave transaction)

- step on OS level to /usr/sap/trans/buffer

- rename the current <SID> file to e. g. <SID>.old

- start SPAM

Dear Markus,

Downloaded the same file and copied to EPS/in, after that the issue has been fixed.

You should run transaction STMS once.

This will ensure you have a transport domain.

Without one you can't update any packages.

p.s. SPAM/SAINT should be updated to 39.

Hi David,

Thanks for your information.

Already we did this, trans dir also mentioned there. still we are facing the issue.

I faced that same issue only 2 days ago, but when I ran STMS again it solved.

You could try deleting your stms configuration and creating a new one.

Dear David,

Tried with re-configuring the STMS, still same issue only.
