Spool request internal error

[Former Member]

Dear All,

When I am executing a report in background using tcode se38, I am not able to view the output of the report from the spool request .

When I try to view the contents of the spool request, It simply gives a message

as follows :

Request 74837 in system PRD : internal error

00000040/ in spooler.

Please advice me on this issue.

Thanks

hello Gaurav,

it is coming because the columns in spool is exceeding the SAP defined limit of 255. Either you need to create a device type with columns greater than 255 or else use the OSS note: 186603. It has a simple report <b>ZRSPOSHOWLIST</b> that you need to create in your system. I created this report and now whenever i have such errors I use it to view the spool.

regards.

If you run this report in foreground, are you able to print it?

Hi Ruchit ,

The output of the report that I run usually consists of around 35 columns and 950 to 1000 lines . Will this report ZRSPOSHOWLIST work out when I am going to view the spool request this time? Is there any other way possible to view the spool request without using this report ?

Please advice on this issue.

Thanks

If this is happening everytime u run the job.

1. In SPAD Full Admin-> perform consistency check of spool db. Delete inconsistent objects

2. In SP12 -> Perform TemSe Consistency check....
