SECSTORE 089(“Key … for entry … is missing in the secure storage in the file system”)

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We have Done our NW7.4 Gateway ABAP system DB Migration from Oracle 11.3 to MaxDB 7.9 on Solaris 5.10 OS, while performing post activities

we are getting the issue during Checking the ABAP Secure store phase.

While checking the secstore we  are getting the issue as :Key … for entry … is missing in the secure storage in the file system”

So for the above Issue in the Inst Guide Solution as below:

SAP Help link:Importing Missing Encryption Keys - System Security - SAP Library

As  per the above links we have tried , it is asking the Source system id Key value but unfortunately we don't have stored any key values of the source system.

In this case how we can proceed , is there any way to get the Source system key value, or else can we delete the source system key and generate the new key on  target system as per generate option in Key management -> generate option  in Secstore. if we do like this is there any other side effects will occur and any other things do we need to do.

Experts please suggest

Regards,

Samba.

Hi,

This is problematic but you can create a new key in source system. Then afterwards make a new backup and restart migration process. Only alternative at this point would be to contact SAP they have some very nice not publicly available tools that  can assist in situation like these.

Lets hope the migration is registered.

Hello Samba

You can try restoring the DATA and KEY files from the source system located in usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\global\security\rsecssfs\data and usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\global\security\rsecssfs\key

Hello Samba,

You can find the encryption key if you have the SAP installation directory.

The key can be found in the sapinst_dev.log file.

Hello,

Maybe the SAP KBA 1789377 can help.

Hello Samba,

I doubt if there is a way around this. If all else fails try this.

I'm assuming you have a backup or export so try and build the source system again from it and retrieve the key as suggested.

Thanks.
