Trying to release a request via RFC.....Transport control program tp could not be started

[Former Member]

Hello!

we are defining our own application to release transport request via RFC and we
are using BAPI_CTREQUEST_RELEASE trough SOAP-RFC service.
Unfortunately we are getting the following error:
-<TYPE>E</TYPE>
            <ID>TP</ID>
            <NUMBER>608</NUMBER>
            <MESSAGE>Could not start transport control program
tp</MESSAGE>
            <LOG_NO/>
            <LOG_MSG_NO>000000</LOG_MSG_NO>
            <MESSAGE_V1>4</MESSAGE_V1>
            <MESSAGE_V2>connection closed (no data)</MESSAGE_V2>...

If we call the BAPI directly trough SE37, the functionallity is working and also
release functionallity is fine in transaction SE09-10...

It seems that the second jump via RFC (the first jump is our RFC call to the BAPI) to the CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_TP' is not allowed. The only workaround that I founded is to create a RFC and call the BAPI in background mode using a submit via job...... and it works.

Any idea about this? Do you think is not possible to do this or do we have a problem in our system tp configuration?

Thanks to all!

Fernando.
