Support Packs Issue

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We were applying Support Package SAPKB70012 and TP_IMPORT execution was

contiously going on.

In the logs,

The following call returned with exit code 236:

ERROR: sapevt SAP_TRIGGER_RDDIMPDP -t name=BP1

ERROR: Background jobs cannot be started.

ERROR: Please check trace file dev_evt.

After that we cancelled the TP_IMPORT Phase and deleted entry from

buffer and again started.

Then we manually fired the RDDIMPDP Job.

After that we are trying to logon into server from SAPGUI then we are

not able to login.

The error is comming "syntax error in program SAPMS380".

We are not able to login.

We have SAP Kernel 700 Patch 95,R3trans level 85 and tp level 86 in

Prouduction Server Replica.(System Copy Performed recently in this server)

SAP Basis Patch SAPKB70012 main import terminated with Return code 8.

but we have already applied same patch in Development replica Server with

SAPKernel Release 700 Patch 95 , R3trans level 85 and tp level 86 and no problem at Development replica.

As per SAP suggestion we have only one alternative as of now that is backup restoration. Please give your valuable suggestions.

Thanks&Regards,

Hello Kasaraneni,

If you are not able to login to SAP GUI because of "syntax error in program SAPMS380". And you are thinking of restoring backup, then I would suggest you to check this alternative.

Export the program SAPMS380 from your development / production system

And import the exported transport from OS level

tp import <exported transport request> <target SID> client<client no> pf=< transport profile parameter path> U<uncondiction option>

Once you are able to login to SAP.

Please read the note mentioned below.

Note 449270 - Job RDDIMPDP is not triggered by sapevt

Hope this works for you.

Please check if you are lack of space or there was a database problem at that time.If possible try to manually finish job RDDIMPDP and then you can apply patch from command line as below.Please follow steps as mentioned

1.Pls make sure that you have NOT made any changes to import

buffer. try to use the command to verify

tp showbuffer <SID> tag=spam pf=<...transport profile>

2. check at OS level to see if there is any tp or R3trans still

running;if yes pls stop them.

3. The TRBAT and TRJOB tables should be empty.

4. Pls issue the following tp command to manully import

tp r3i <request> <SID> pf=<Name incl. Path to the transport profile>

tag=spam -Dclientcascade=yes -Drepeatonerror=8

The return code for this tp call must be 0 or 4. otherwise

pls send back this msg to SAP.

5. At this time you should be able to logon system as normal

and you MUST continue and finish the following steps after the

import in SPAM. check queue and confirm after spam finishes.

This method is just alternative to restore old backup option.

Thanks for your reply Ajju.

1.Pls make sure that you have NOT made any changes to import

buffer. try to use the command to verify

tp showbuffer <SID> tag=spam pf=<...transport profile>

Ans: we perform this activity In this case this command doesnt help.

2.check at OS level to see if there is any tp or R3trans still

running;if yes pls stop them.

Ans:The buffer is already modified multiple times,The present buffer file is corrupted.

3.Pls issue the following tp command to manully import

tp r3i <request> <SID> pf=<Name incl. Path to the transport profile>

tag=spam -Dclientcascade=yes -Drepeatonerror=8

The return code for this tp call must be 0 or 4. otherwise

pls send back this msg to SAP.

Ans: Returncode 8. SAP is still working on this issue.
