recreating trans/data files for support package

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Someone deleted the files in our /usr/sap/trans/data directory while we were in the middle of a support package installation. I'm now getting an error in the IMPORT_PROPER phase that file /usr/sap/trans/data/RB70013.SAP cannot be accessed, which is no wonder since the file is no longer there. Is there some way I can use the OS-level tools (i.e., tp or R3trans) to recreate only the data files for the support packages? I've still got the .PAT files (and would obviously be able to get them again easily).

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Hi Michael,

You may be able to reset the import queue depending upon which phase u r in...

if its too late..like for example you have crossed IMPORT_PROPER, then what I would suggest is,

Use some other system in the landscape to generate the data files using the test mode...in SPAM..Settings-->test mode...

That will generate the data files and then you can use them to continue with the import in the current system..

Hope that helps
