HELP Emergency!! How do I cancel a Transport Request that has hung?

[MPGraziano]

I think I requested the wrong client ... client 40 instead of 400 and the transport has been running in background (the little truck) for about 20mins. I know for a fact it should not be still going.

I tried..

1. deleting from the transport que and adding again, but when I add it again it just comes up as if it is in progress

2. I have stopped and restarted sap and it still is hung will the little truck in stms indicating it is still running?

Please someone help

If you entered the wrong client, the job should be cancelled.

Still, It might be necessary to do as Markus says: To kill tp and/or R3trans.

First things first:

Go to the import Queue (STMS, F5, doubleclick on target system).

First, mark the request and then

menu: Request --> Display --> Logs

Now you should be able to see how far the job actual came.

If the job have aborted then we can delete the entry from the import monitor.

Go back to the import queue and then:

Menu: Goto --> Import Monitor

There you should see your "still running" import job.

Here you can see the status of the job etc.

Place the cursor on you request and press "minus-icon"

(not the "Delete-icon").

If you go back, and when in the import queue again,

press the Refresh-icon (F5) the truck symbol should be gone.

Now try to import it again, and if it doesn't work this time either you have to find the still running tp and/or R3trans.

Eh, it sounds a bit complicated but I'll hope you got the picture.

Check if any tp and/or R3trans processes running, cancel/kill them if yes.

No offense!

because it might wait for RDDIMDP in the wrong client.

You can also check \usr\sap\trans\log and \usr\sap\trans\tmp, sort them by date and check the logfiles corresponding to that transport to see in which "status" it is.

Hi,

you can check the entries in table TMSTLOCKR.

use tcode SE16 -> TMSTLOCKR -> enter -> enter your TP request number -> execute

you can see the current phase of TP

if you delete this entry then, no more truck symbol for this hang request.

also check
