BPM Process is running forever

[Former Member]

I'm using local correlation only and this was working scenario. We had applied patch to PI ( former XI ) last weekend and it messed up. This is a working scenario up until new Patch installed.

Now the Problem is

Mapping ( Transformation step ) is 'in process' forever without completing the process.

This step has technical details such as

Message Text: Execution will continue in background

Exception : 0

Error type: 0

Area: SWF_RUN

Message: 609

Can someone suggest what to do.

HI,

Run the transaction SWF_XI_CUSTOMIZING- traffic lights must be set to GREEN here.. check this

also check transaction SXI_CACHE for the active runtime version

Refer this SAP Note - 818783

Moorthy,

from the note you gave..

Solution

For an ABAP implementation, you can check with transaction ST22 whether the method has triggered a short dump.

For Java implementations, you should analyze, for example, the trace files of the mapping.

---

How can I see trace file of the mapping as its a transformation step in BPM.?

[moorthy · Accepted solution]

to make it easier, you can test the mapping in the integration repository with live data.. SO it will give you the error.

TO check the trace file , you need to look into Visual admin..

Also delete the workitems entry with transaction SWWL and re-run the interface

Hi,

we did not changed the interface at all. It was working interface and the data is same as well. Iam sure Mapping has no problem. If there is a mapping issue it should have thrown mapping exception.

This work item has message text 'Execution will continue in background '. Do you think some Service is not running which I strongly suspect..

Thanks

SWF_XI_CUSTOMIZING is working fine?

Check the workflow log SXMB_MONI->PE and technical details .. till how many steps it went successfully... and check it there..

If you have transformation error, because of huge amount of data etc, you need to check this in the workflow log..

Hi,

Please go to your message, than go to workflow log and display container for transformation step. Check here entry "trace".

Look also at this note 791352

SWF_XI_CUSTOMIZING is fine.. all Green

Data is basically having 8 lines.

Trace is not SET.

As there is no Exception Message in Technical detail says

Execution wil lcontinue in background

Exception = 0

Error Type = 0

Area = SWF_RUN

Message = 609

So it doesn't say there is an issue with mapping but something not triggerd which it suppose to.

Hi,

Try to activate trace, transaction SWELS. Afterwards run your process and one verify your trace (you can do it in SWEL)

in SWEL:

Receiver type: WS90000003

Receiver FM: SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT_IBF

RFC Dest : WORKFLOW_LOCAL_001

Check FM: SWF_XI_CHECK_PROCESS_START

Trace Data:

WF-BATCH

Main Program : SAPMSSY1

<b>Action: Check FM ends with exception</b>

check this:

If I were you I'd kill all work items which belongs to this BPM and I'd reactivate this business process. For me it still looks like problem with cache.

a) check message monitor

b) verify cache

c) refresh cache
