Unable to open SAP Screen Painter on the current desktop.

[Former Member]

Hi,

Whenever I try to open Screen painter through SAP GUI I am thrown with an error message "EU_SCRP_WN32 : timeout during allocate / CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV'". This error has been occurring since I have changed my workstation. When I use my SAP login ID on a different desktop, screen painter is working fine. This means that the problem is not with the SAP login or the SAP server, the problem lies with the GUI or current desktop setting. Please look into this issue and help resolving this issue. Please revert if any further information is required.

I have already tried/checked the below steps:

1. Reinstalled SAP GUI.

2. gnetx.exe and eumfcdll.dll is already present in my system.

3. I have checked the setting, Utilities->Settings->Screen Painter->Graphical Layout Editor (Checked)

The issue is when is tested the RFC conection " EU_SCRP_WN32" it gives me the below error.

Logon		Cancel

Can anybody help me with the above issue.

Hhhmm, the reinstall or OSS would've been my favorite candidates. The only other thing that comes to mind - especially due to the timeout issue - is personal firewall. I suspect you have checked that already, but if not I'd make sure that you don't have a firewall or similar program running on the machine that blocks network access for the screen painter...

Changing the VLAN resolved my issue.

Hello!

Tell, please, what means "change VLAN"?

Where I can see this setting?

P.S.: Note 37527 Solution In relation to 3) helped to me.

I was on a different VLAN, changed the VLAN to which it was supposed to be and that resolved my problem.

You need to get the latest version of the screen painter. Check note 133903. I had the same problem in 7.20 SAPgui, and I just updated via this note, and the problem is no more.

Hi Rich,

I followed the correction instruction of the note 133903 but didn't work for me .

I am using SAPGui 7.20.

Details: (after replace the files)

ABAP Development Workbench

Release 7.20

Graphical Screen Painter

File Version 7200.0.1300.354

Build 354w209

05 May 2010 / 16 Jun 2010

OS: Windows 7 Professional 32bit

Some times appears the message box: No response from Graphical Screen Painter - Exiting.

On title bar of message box appears: gnetx.exe

Can I do some thing else?

Regards,

Rodrigo
