Solution Manager 7.1 upgrade - PHASE MAIN_SWITCH/MODPROF_TRANS

[Former Member]

Hi,

I encountered error during solution manager 7.1 upgrade in phase MAIN_SWITCH/MODPROF_TRANS.

The error shown as below.

SAPup broke during phase MODPROF_TRANS in module MAIN_SWITCH / Downtime I: Switch tables and Kernel

Error Message: Unknown macro 'PROFTYPE'

I try to google but can't find anything. Is it something to do with the profile parameter?

Thanks,

KJ

Hi KJ,

This is a known issue of SAPehpi release lmt_001 version 40.025.

Developers are working on the fix. For a quick solution, please replace

ALPXPOOL.XML at DIR_PUT/abap/bin with the attached ALPXPOOL.XML file in below link:

https://sapmats-de.sap-ag.de/download/download.cgi?id=HTYGSBGS17PRIRIINZ6PA8BDOAR7BNNFZHMTTK8UYFFCVN...

It should work. The fix will be included in the next release of SAPehpi.

Thanks

Hi just to update this thread also helped solve my issue upgrading ECC6 EHP4 --> EHP5

and Thanks also to Carsten..for your help...

SAP AGS said suggested to use the latest SAPEHPI, saw a new one released yesterday 8th March. Since I already at the start of downtime I ended up just the workaround suggested above...and it worked

Hi Guys,

I've got this error during an ERP 6.0 to ERP 6.0 EHP5-Upgrade as well.

And I did not find a SAP note to this as well, but this hint helped me out.

Maybe a SAP note would be a helpful thing for others too. Or a new

SAPEHPI maybe...

Kind Regards,

Carsten Loeffler
