Reading transport log

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

Does any one know how to read the transport log with specific date and time?

Hello,

there's a program RDDPROTT and several function units beginning with TR_LOG (e.g. TR_LOG_OVERVIEW_REQUEST), but the drawback: they all need the transport number or at least a selection of transport numbers.

So you would have to read first the transports into an internal table and then in a loop the transport protocols checking them by date.

This will last a minute or two...

The other way around: Via transaction AL11 to /usr/sap/trans/log and read the directory. But if you have a normal transport directory there hundreds or thousands of logs. It'll last a while too.

Think the main problem is that the transport logs are files on a directory and not organized by date. In SE03 you'll see the <u>Change Date</u> of a transport but not the import date.

Hope it helps you a bit

Hope u can see the transpost log with specified date in tcode se03 using search for objects in request/ task.

Set the date & execute the transaction. next screen will display all the related transport. Select and press F6 to see the logs.

Thanks for your reply but in this case the option you offer is to read log for specific request, but I’m looking to read the entire log for specific date and time and not for specific request.
