Dispatcer showing as STOPPED status

[Former Member]

Hello Form,

One node was missing in my SAP MMC but i was able to recover it with the help of below thread

[|SAP MMC Server Node Missing ]

but now as soon as I start the MMC initially the Dispatcher starts but then it stops after some time.

There are no entries in WP Table.

The trace file of dispatcher shows below

Hi,

check the work process trace files in order to find out why those processes died as this seems to be the primary source of you problem.

*** ERROR => W1 (pid 2428) died

Kind regards,

Hi Sven,

Where can I check the work process trace files ?

Thanks,

Vikky

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

You can find the work process traces in the directory /usr/sap/SID/<Instance>/work. Look for dev_wXY (where XY is a digit number) files.

Kind regards,

The problem is that I am not a BASIS person and new to these things but I need to resolve this ASAP

STOP these type of discussions here, No one here will be responsible for your system if it goes wrong.

Discuss with your Lead/Client and get BASIS Support OR Raise an SAP message.

contact your BASIS.

I am locking this

Issue the command R3trans -dx and paste the only ERROR lines from trans.log file.

*You can find the trans.log file at same location where you executed R3trans0 -dx (Current working directory)

Hi Nick,

I have to execute the comand from command prompt ?

Can you give the steps to run this command.

Also if you can give me the exact path for trans.log file that will be great.

Many thanks,

Vikky

Hi Vivek,

Trans Log you will find in the same directory where you execute this command.

Hi Abhijit,

The problem is that I am not a BASIS person and new to these things but I need to resolve this ASAP.

SO if you can give me steps how to execute this command that will be really helpful....my apollogies if this is very basic question.

Thanks,

Vikky

Hi Vivek,

Go to command prompt of the server, from there give command .This will generate log file in the same directory.
