hi experts

I am getting an error during the creation of any master data's like XD01, XK01 etc and Migo level

the error is as below

Runtime Errors DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR

Exception CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB

Database error text........: "SQL8001N An attempt to connect to the database

failed due to a product licence problem. SQLSTATE=42968"

Internal call code.........: "[RSQL/DELE/PAKDATBUF ]"

Please check the entries in the system log (Transaction SM21).

If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to

find an interim solution in an SAP Note.

If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following

keywords:

what should be done.

Sudhir

Hello Sudhir,

Always try to search according to SQLxxxxN code or SQLSTATE code, you will get more and clear understanding of the cause of the error and the resolution direction as well.

For e.g. for SQLSTATE=42968, you will find below IBM link. If you are on regular support for 'SAP on DB6' then you can include this practice as a regular habit. So as Hans said, please go ahead to verify the license using database user or ask your sap admin/dba team to verify it.

Hi,

probably your DB2 license expired.

You can check the status with the following command: db2licm -l

If you are an SAP OEM customer, follow SAP note 816733.

If you have purchased the DB2 software directly via IBM, you need to get the license from IBM.

THanks for your fast response, I am an SAP SD Certified consultant, working for a client, here we have an IBM purchase DB6.

i would like to know whether this can happen even when we activate the Revenue Recognition in SAP System.

Thanks

Hi Sudhir,

I couldn't see your latest response. I see you probably don't have access to OS/DB level. So pls interact with your admin team very soon.

And yes until the db2 license is not updated, you will keep getting this kind of error in any of your functional tasks.

Thanks

Hello Hans.

I believe you made a typo of the OSS Note. The actual Note is 816773 and not 816733.

Just as a reference:

816773 - DB6: Installing an SAP OEM license

816733 - KEAT - Schedman: User decision is not executed  <---Irrelevant to  the DB2 licensing
