About STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET

[carlos_zhang3]

Hi Experts ,

When i execute ke24 the system popup the error message :

<b>Runtime errors STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET

Occurred on 07/25/2007 at 17:32:11

&INCLUDE INCL_INSTALLATION_ERROR

What happened?

The current program had to be terminated because of an

error when installing the R/3 System.

The program had already requested 1256707392 bytes from the operating

system with 'malloc' when the operating system reported after a

further memory request that there was no more memory space

available.

What can you do?

Make a note of the actions and input which caused the error.

To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.

You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer

termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion

date.

Set the system profile parameters

- abap/heap_area_dia

- abap/heap_area_nondia

to a maximum of 1256707392. Then reduce the value by 10.000.000 to be on the

.....

...

..</b>

In this case is it reduce the parameter value in <b>abap/heap_area_nondia</b> can solve this problem ??

Our Server's memory is 12GB .. and i think the memory is enough ...

Many thanks !!!

the best solution is upgrade the server to 64bit !

Hi,

I have had this error as well, and found it was being caused when a transaction was run without specifying a GL code. Net result was the transaction ran against all GL codes and the result set was too large for SQL to handle with the memory allocation it had.

Get your end user to explain exactly what they were doing at the time and if whatever they were doing required specific inputs.

hi Carlos,

I have seen a lot of the same problem in my system. I asked SAP to take a look at it, but not much helpful.

I think the problem is a kind of program (R/3) error that we can't do anything with it. Once a work processor falls into an internal loop, or processes a huge job so it consumes all of EM memory, it dies with the error "STORAGE_PARAMETERS_WRONG_SET"

Once a WP got this error, the WP does not return the memory back to OS, and keeps generating the same error to other users. And this was the problem.

When I get this error, I just kiss the processor from the OS level. You can use taskbar from the server or kill command (if you have) . I use pskill.

pskill
server PID

then SAP makes a new WP with new PID. and it is fine.

Thanks .

My SAP enviroment is : SAP4.7 with Ora9.2 on Windows 2003 R2 .

Hardware : IBM X3650 x 2 (cluster) + 12GB memory + 500GB harddisk .

I had checked the profile ... and i also used /3GB this parameter within Boot.ini .... but the error still happened ...

Could you tell me how to solve this problem ? thanks a lot !

Best Regards,

Carlos

taking into account that process already allocated 1.2GB of HEAP, the long term solution will be in direction to install 64bit dialog instance and run the transaction there... note 996600 explains why.

[former_member433984]

nothing to do with RAM.. there is not enough free space in virtual address space for heap - see notes

if not help this might be case for 64bit migration - [url=https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/996600]996600[/url]
