ABAP error in deleting archived messages

[dhagigeorgiou]

Hello all,

We seem to be having a problem when deleting archived messages.

The archiving background jobs runs periodically (SAP_BC_XMB_ARCHIVE....).

The first part works fine ARV_BC_XMB_WRP...., and i can view the list of the message ids that have been archived in files.

The second bit ARV_BC_XMB_DEL... fails to due a runtime error "NO_DDIC_TYPE":

• check for dictionary type

rel_name = me->get_relative_name( ).

if me->is_ddic_type( ) = ABAP_FALSE or rel_name is initial.

raise no_ddic_type.

endif.

Has anyone come across the above error?

Object BC_XMB has been activated, but i have unable to fill it.

Any input will much appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi,

Have you activated any infostructure? If yes which infostructure is active? SAP_BC_XMB or SAP_BC_XMB1?

If SAP_BC_XMB is active then deactivate it. Activate only SAP_BC_XMB1.

Cheers!

Thanks Samanjay,

I did this. I still have the same problem. The deletion program raises an exception that no_ddic_type exists.

Unfortuantely i am not an ABAP expert.

Any input more than welcome.

Thanks,

Cheers!
