No entries in trace file - ST01

Former Member

Hello gurus,

I'm trying to analyze an authorization problem so I created a test scenario to understand how authorization trace works.

For this test scenario, I'm trying to enter SE38 with a user that has no authorizations and getting "no authorization" error.

I activated the system trace from ST01 with authorization check setting, got the error and then deactivated the trace. But when I try to analyze, there are no records about the authorization error I'm getting.

Is my test scenario correct? If yes, why can't I see the missing authorization from the trace?

Thank you for your input.

Kind regards,

Gökhan

if it is a single server then it should come there or if you have distributed environemnt i mean CI and Application servers then it is server specific that means you have to activate the trace on that server where you are connected.

First activate the trace then analyze the trace then deactivate the trace

It is a single system and I do activate and deactivate the trace. Still no entries.

The trace is not written immediately in my case, but after 3-4 minutes after deactivating it. I could see it after that interval. Thank you for your input.

Hi

Are you saving the trace before displaying the trace file?

I experienced a similar problem as the trace was not being displayed.It got resolved when I saved the trace file and then displayed it.

I hope this helps.

I tried to save the file and got the error:

"Internal error when reading trace files (file incomplete)"

Probably this is also why there are no entries. Any ideas?

Thanks

Hai,

Check the parameters controlling the Traces:

You might have configured less space for writing trace files at file system level/hard disc.
