Hello Sir Gaurav,

Yes Sir , I will. This issue cannot be resolve right now , since we`re on the business operation and so it is only suggested to do if weren't on the operation because it needs a server restart/reboot. I can't do it at this time but I will be trying this solution, I had made an activity plan for parameter changing and changing of size of the paging file. I appreciated the way you help me Sir, thank you so much!

Hello Sir Sriram;


Here`s the content of runtime error @ st22 :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Runtime Errors :   PXA_NO_SHARED_MEMORY

Short text:            800000 kilo bytes of shared memory for PXA not available.

What happened?

    When starting the R/3 System, 800000 Kbytes of storage space

    was required for the ABAP/4 program buffer (PXA), but this

    was not available.

    The system was started as an emergency system and is not fully

    operational.

    It is intended only for display and to eliminate errors.

    Under no circumstances should it be used for production

    purposes.

Error analysis

     The error probably occurred when installing the

     R/3 system.

     The return code of the SAP shared memory control was 1.

     The error reported by the operating system is:

     Error number..... 0

     Error text....... "No error"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just want to know how to resolve this error.

Thanks Sir!
