Abap dump CON_CODEPAGE

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

We are getting the following Abap dump

CONVT_CODEPAGE exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE

I have went thorugh various notes but still no help notes are 1057289 and 547308

DUMP:-

At the conversion of a text from codepage '4102' to codepage '1100':

- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two

codepages;

- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported

The running ABAP program 'SAPLZPPEU_FUNCTIONS' had to be terminated as the

conversion

An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.

The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE',

caught in

procedure "CREATE_FILE" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING cl

Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the

exception would occur, the current program is terminated.

The reason for the exception is:

Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many

codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a

codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text

contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a

conversion error occurs.

Can some one help.

thanks

Hi Kris,

I have had the same problem.

In my case the error occurs during a file tranfer to a local file or to a server (transfer DATA-REC to FILE).

First it wasn't easy to find the "wrong" sign which entail the CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE.

The idea was to create a table which contains the unknown signs and define a sign which repair these sign.

To avoid the dump, you can enbed the the transfer comand in try u2026 endtry.

This table named ZSD_SIGNS.

Discription:

IT_SIGNS type table of ZSD_SIGNS,

select * from ZSD_SIGNS

Befor transfer:

loop at IT_SIGNS into WA_SIGNS.

replace all occurrences

of WA_SIGNS-OLD_SIGN

in DATA -> internal table

with WA_SIGNS-NEW_SIGN(WA_SIGNS-LENG_NEW_SIGN).

endloop.

- note: if you want to change one old sign into more then one new sign (example u2026 to u2026) you must process the replacement field by field and change the where condition in the select statement to where TO_USE = 0 or TO_USE > 1!

Now you can look in the table ZSD_SIGNS and define the correct sign for these new record (SE16)!

I hope, it will help you!

Is this a remotely called function?

YES MArkus

[markus_doehr2]

So the RFC configuration is not correct. The calling system doesn't know the target system is Unicode. Check your RFC connection setting from the caller system.

Hi,

Both the calling and caller sysrtem is set t unicode, i have checked it but the error occurs

[markus_doehr2]

And are both systems Unicode? 1100 is an ASCII codepage....
