Missing TP.exe

[Former Member]

I installed WAS 6.20 in my computer and was trying to configure the transport system. While using transaction STMS I got an error. I ran the report RSTMSPT and the report tells me that tp.exe is missing. Installation went ok, so I don't know how this happened. Has anybody encountered this problem? Is there a way to add tp.exe separately? I have a file in the home directory called tp.pdb? What is that file used for?

Thanks

Are you saying you don't have the tp.exe program at all?

I guess you can update your kernel to get it...

The answers given by few people are correct and able to solve this missing TP.exe. This issue should be closed.

Check if your tp.exe is available in your kernel dir. If yes, check if DIR_TRANS is set correctly.

If it's not available, go to the SAP marketplace, download the latest tp.exe, r3load.exe, r3trans.exe for your SAP release/OS/DB combination and copy them to the kernel dir.

Peter gave the good answer, and I just give more details.

So, I had the same problem as Hari (missing tp.exe in miniwas 6.20). Note: Miniwas installation was perfect, it was well running, but when I wanted to transport, surprise tp.exe not there (nowhere on hard disk)!

What I did (thx to Peter), I went to http://service.sap.com/swdc (with my OSS user), looked for "kernel". I got a list of kernels among which there was KERNEL 6.20 32-BIT.

Then I went deeper up to the windows / database independent kernel:

SAP KERNEL 6.20 32-BIT
|__ Windows Server on IA32 32bit
     |__  Database independent

And you get a list of programs to download, among which there is:

tp_1943-10001664.SAR

(note: SAR files are SAP compressed files)

Download it to your computer

From the windows explorer, look for the miniwas main directory (it contains programs disp+work.exe or sapcar.exe for example), right-click on it and choose "open command window here", and run this commande:

sapcar -xf TP_1943-10001664.SAR

It's done...
