Changing text in SOTR_EDIT(in same language)

122 Views

hello experts,

We have some texts maintained in SOTR_EDIT in EN and FR language.

I could change some of them(in the same language) successfully using Tcode SOTR_EDIT, click 'Change'.

But most fo them throw the following error

"SAP names file for <SAP UNAME> locked by another process"

On further drilling, it says

Message no. PU815

Diagnosis

An operating system file (the SAPNAMES file of user <SAP UNAME>) could not be accessed from the program that is running, since it is locked by another transaction.

The name of the lock file is "/usr/sap/trans/tmp/<SAP UNAME>.LOS".

Procedure

Execute the function again after a few seconds.

If the message occurs regularly, contact your SAP administrator.

I also tried changing the text by EDIT>Context>Change but no luck.

Any help to overcome this will be appreciated.
