<b>Dump Analysis</b>

A dump analysis is a comprehensive list that should enable you to identify the causes and possible solutions of program errors. The ABAP Workbench generates a short dump whenever a report or transaction terminates due to a serious error. The system enters the error in the system log and writes a snapshot of the program at the moment when it terminated into a special database table called SNAP.

Dump analyses give the user or programmer information about the causes of the error that has caused the program to terminate. Experienced users can use them to identify very quickly where and why this occurred. He or she can them solve the problem.

<b>

The snapshot contains the following information</b>:

Why the program has terminated

What caused the program termination

Where in the program code the termination occurred

What you can do to correct the error

The values of the relevant system fields when the program terminated

The calls or events that were active when the program terminated

Any other programs that are affected.

In Basis 6.20, you can also reorganize short dumps from within ST22 via menu option Goto->Reorganize but I'm not sure if that exists in 4.6C. This option allows you to specify a different retention period for the short dumps. You would need to use this manual reorganization process in place of the batch version.

<b>If there is requirement for you to keep some of your ABAP short dumps there is also an option in ST22 to allow you to keep them indefinately. When you see the list of dumps, you simply cursor select the required

dump(s0 and select menu option Short dump->Keep. Kept short dumps are not subject to reorganization until they are released again.</b>

Hi Hari,

1. Time out exception (increase the value for timeout parameter value in RZ10 or restrict the data selection)

2. SAPSQL_STMNT_TOO_LARGE - The ABAP runtime environment does not support large WHERE conditions (> 64 KB). If possible, large WHERE conditions are subdivided into several smaller WHERE conditions.

3. CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE - Open Dataset exception.

Regards,

Srilatha.
