Hello,
After running the CONVUSRCPT command at STEP(*CHECK) in preparation for moving from classic user concept to the new user concept, the log file has these errors that need to be resolved before proceeding:
For each SID that I run the report for, I am getting this error for a directory in /usr/sap/tmp :
Checking global directory tree: /usr/sap/tmp
ERROR: /usr/sap/tmp/as4exec_dummylinks Not an R3GROUP file but SAPINST /*NONE
The directory as4exec_dummylinks is empty and has these authorisations:
Object . . . . . . . . . . . . : /usr/sap/tmp/as4exec_dummylinks
Type . . . . . . . . . . . . . : DIR
Owner . . . . . . . . . . . . : SAPINST
Primary group . . . . . . . . : *NONE
Authorization list . . . . . . : *NONE

*PUBLIC *RWX
SAPINST *RWX X X X X
Data -------------Data Authorities-------------
User Authority Objopr Read Add Update Delete Execute
*PUBLIC *RWX X X X X X X
SAPINST *RWX X X X X X X
I assume I can just delete this directory - or do I need to change the owner and primary group?
The other errors are numerous and are all referencing objects in a subdirectory of /sapmnt/<SID> named /exe$/uc -
e.g.
ERROR: /sapmnt/QAS/exe$/uc/antlr.o might be broken or circular link or is
otherwise corrupted. Please confirm and correct.
ERROR: /sapmnt/QAS/exe$/uc/ar_AA.ISO8859-6 might be broken or circular
link or is otherwise corrupted. Please confirm and correct.
Under /sapmnt/QAS there is this extra directory exe$ which contains STMFs, SYMLNK->PROGRAM objects and 2 directories jkit and uc. The kernel is Release 720.
Directory . . . . : /sapmnt/QAS
exe DIR
exe$ DIR
global DIR
j2ee DIR
patches DIR
profile DIR
the exe$/uc directory contains SYMLNK and SYMLNK-> STMF objects
Directory . . . . : /sapmnt/DEV/exe$/uc
Object link Type
alsnmptrap_mt.o SYMLNK
antlr.o SYMLNK
ar_AA.ISO8859-6 SYMLNK
ar_AA.ISO8859-6__6 > SYMLNK
bwgis.so SYMLNK->STMF
ccmagent_readme.tx > SYMLNK->STMF
ccmsping SYMLNK->STMF
The dates on these objects is Feb 2011, so it looks safe to delete these as the /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/uc directory has objects with 2015 dates from the last applied kernel.
Thanks
Michael.

Hi, Michael,

as far as i know, the ..../exe$/... directory is a copy of .../exe/... to determine changes on kernel-components.
i guess, the links (to ILE-Objects ?) are broken because of deleted kernel-library ?
so i would delete that links, too.

Hi Michael,
Yes you can delete directory /usr/sap/tmp/as4exec_dummylinks if it is empty. It will be recreated automatically when it is needed again with the correct credentials.
Yes you can delete the whole /sapmnt/QAS/exe$ directory tree, as it is only the backup of a previous /sapmnt/QAS/exe created by a preceding APYSIDKRN call when the new /sapmnt/QAS/exe was built. If you are nervous save it before deleting.
Best regards
