Hi!

I am facing with hanging SPAM patch of SAPKB 13 -16.

I am on windows with SAP DB.

Now It is not possible to log onto SAP system

The error is: syntaxerror in program SAPLSFES.

Can some one tell me how to proceed?

Until now I have done the following:

>tp addtobuffer SAPKB70014 ERB pf=D:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_ERB.PFL tag=spam -DCTC=0 -Dtransdir=D:\usr\sap\trans

>tp setsyncmark SAPKB70014 ERB pf=D:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_ERB.PFL

>tp import ALL ERB pf=D:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_ERB.PFL tag=SPAM -Dclientcascade=yes -Drepeatonerror=8

Now the output in CMD console is:

This is tp version 372.04.40 (release 700, unicode enabled)

The information from SLG-file:

INFO: event SAP_IMPORT_START triggered successfully

START DD IMPORT ERB H 20081130171756 erbadm bera9011 STOP DD IMPORT ERB H 20081130171756 erbadm bera9011 INFO TBATG CONVERSION OF ERB N not needed erbadm bera9011 START tp_getprots ERB P 20081130171756 erbadm bera9011 WARNING: System ERB. Warning. 20081130172201 :

Hi,

This is a frequently occuring problem. As per your post you already have halted the patch application. May sound irrational, but try restarting the server and start patch application again. Crude way but helped me a lot.

Hi!

Now I can access to SAP system and go to SPAM tcode.

Unfortunately when I start the SPAM patch (SAPKB13 - 16) it will be stopped after few seconds.

The error is:

SPAM

IMPORT_PROPER

Reason: TP_STEP_FAILURE

Return-code: 0008

Error message: OCS package SAPKB70013, step u201CAu201D, return code 0008

In log file I could find that DDIC activation ended with return code 0008.

Can some one help me to solve this problem?

Thank you very much!

regards
