Exception 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE '
Hi friends,
In one of my bank transfer report i'm getting the runtime error CONVT_CODE_PAGE with the exception
CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE.I don't what is the reason for this dump and how to correct it.So can anyone of u provide me help on this.
I'm attaching the detailed description of the dump below.
Short text
A character set conversion is not possible.
What happened?
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4103' to codepage '1100':
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
codepages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
The running ABAP program 'ZFFOCN_A' had to be terminated as the conversion
would have produced incorrect data.
The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not
be converted), is 2. If this number is 0, the second error case, as
mentioned above, has occurred.
Thanks in advance,
Vadivel.

Exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE in DOM approach xML conversion
Hi gurus,
I got error like below while converting xml file to internal table by DOM parsing approch as said in the Robert Eijpe's blog.
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103':
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
codepages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
The running ABAP program 'CL_ABAP_CONV_IN_CE============CP' had to b
terminated as the conversion
would have produced incorrect data.
The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore

Error while downlaoding smartform into Application server in PDF format
Hi friends,
I am downlaoding Smartform to Application server in PDF format. getting below dump while executing
OPEN DATASET p_filename FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
TRANSFER i_tline TO p_filename
CLOSE DATASET p_filename.
if i add " IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS " after ENCODING DEAFULT then i am not getting dump and pdf file is creating but i am not able to see LOGO in SAP Application server ( downlaoded back from application server to my pc and checked it).
DUMP:
here i am getting dump saying that : You cannot convert the character set
Runtime Error CONVT_CODEPAGE
Exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
What happened?
While a text was being converted from code page '4102' to '4110', one of
the following occurred:
- an character was discovered that could not be represented in one of
the two code pages;
- the system established that this conversion is not supported.
2 characters could not be represented (and thus could not converted).
If 2 = 0, a second or a different error has occurred.
Please Help.
ThanksHi
I think some basis related configuartions to be done
Try like this and inform me
A cyclic job runs, which processes the messages seen in the SOST queue.
Are you sure it's not the frequency of the cyclic job, rather than the
number of messages in the queue, that you are observing? In messages
that are queued and before the cyclic job runs, "wait for comm. service"
is the normal status.
If you mean that there are always 4 items queued in SOST regardless of
the cyclic send job, then I have no ideas. I would have thought there
was no way to do that.
when the send job runs it just never
picks them up & sends them, while it picks up many others. The send job
is somehow blind to these; no error message occurs. In this case, I
'delete' them from the queue (in SOST) and then 'undelete' (drop down
menu -> /Go to /Deleted Items) them and then re-queue them. THEN they
actually get picked up & sent when the next cyclic send job executes.

Short Dump - CONNE_IMPORT_CONVERSION_ERROR
Hi,
We just trying to upgrade to ECC6 EHP4 SP12.
when trying to delete transactions in a company code, we are getting the short dump.
Runtime Errors CONNE_IMPORT_CONVERSION_ERROR
Exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
Error in IMPORT statement: Change of length on conversion.
The current ABAP program "SAPF020" had to be terminated because it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
I have tried to debug into the program, but I could not find the root cause since we are not allowed to debug macro.
I had crawled the SDN forum and SAP notes, and still can't find the appropriate solution.
Do anyone has any idea about the short dump I got? Please kindly advice.
thank you.

EdisonHi All,
I got the solution for this issue for my kind of problem.
In program RPU600BT_CONV_SINGLE_CL we commented the following
START-OF-SELECTION.
IF 1 = 0. MESSAGE e567(3g). ENDIF. "#EC *
PERFORM append_message USING 1
space
'567' "report not necessary
space
space
space
space
'P'.
STOP. "check note 1314769 whether conversion is necessary
After this execute the same program and we will get the old results get converted.
And one more is we should be careful in checking SAPU & SPAD transaction codes. There shouldn't be any partially implemented notes.
Think will help at least one.

LSMW: Codepage conversion error with a Unicode data file
Hi all,
I am currently developing a LSMW upload program which has to use a Unicode data file. The underlying system/target system is NOT a Unicode system. The data file also contains non-Latin2 characters.
In the step "Specify Files", I have specified my Unicode data file and specified the codepage type "4110 - Unicode UTF-8".
In the step "Read Data", then I get the runtime error "CONVT_CODEPAGE", exception "CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE".
I would expect that all non-Unicode characters are automatically transformed to "#", but the conversion progam breaks. The character transformation to "#" would be fine.
I am really wondering why, at first, I am able to specify the Unicode codepage type, but then, the file cannot be converted correctly.
What do I make wrong, what can I do to avoid the error?
Thanks a lot in advance for helping me out...
Regards,
KlausHello,
You need convert the file with the format UTF-8. In notepad you can choose this option.

German Special Characters in XSTRING to STRING conversion
Hi Experts,
I have a CSV file (created from a Windows Excel file) with German Special Characters (e.g. 'ä', 'Ä') and I am trying to read this into ABAP internal tables. By using the THTMLB tag 'thtmlb:fileUpload' I get an XSTRING and I am trying to convert this into STRING. However, wheny trying to do this I get an exception 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE'.
This is my coding:
data: conv type ref to cl_abap_conv_in_ce.
conv = cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create( input = lr_upload->file_content ).
conv->read( importing data = lv_content ).
Note: lr_upload is my XSTRING object from the file upload, lv_content is a STRING.
In the CSV file the German special characters look fine and the SAP system is a Unicode system, but it seems like there are some problems with the conversions somehow. Any ideas from the experts?
Thanks a lot and Regards,
JensAs you mention a csv file I'm wondering if your encoding is wrong: I.e. when you create your instance of cl_abap_conv_in_ce you don't specify the encoding of your source hex string, so that means the default encoding is used, which should be UTF-8 in your case. So if your csv file is not encoded in UTF-8, specify the correct encoding in the create method and see if that helps.
Depending on how you get the file contents you might actually be able to combine the file retrieval with the conversion in one step. E.g. if the file is read from the application server you could specify the used code page via [open dataset ... in legacy text mode ... code page|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPOPEN_DATASET_MODE.htm#&ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_4@4@]. Similarly method gui_upload of class cl_gui_frontend_services also allows you to specify a code page.
If all of this doesn't help, post some further details on your file (e.g. sample content & encoding) and possibly add some further details from the exception you're getting. As you mention a Unicode system it basically means that we should be able to convert all characters without any problem as long as we specify the correct source code page.

ABAP dump CONVT_CODEPAGE in ECC 6.0
Hi,
In ECC 6.0 the following error is coming while reading data from Unix file.
<b>Runtime Errors CONVT_CODEPAGE
Except. CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
The termination is caused because exception "CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE"
occurred in
procedure "GET_DATA_FROM_UXFILE" "(FORM)", but it was neither handled locally
nor declared
in the RAISING clause of its signature.</b>
The program logic for opening dataset and reading is as shown below, dump is coming while reading dataset.

Do we need to change the read command to avoid this dump in ECC 6.0?
Thanks,
SreedeviI think syntax Open dataset option ENCODING DEFAULT in unicode system expects a file in UTF-8 encoding.
It's dumping because read dataset failed to convert a character in the fil to UTF-16.
You need to convert to UTF-16 before transfer

i want to create file with header record,item records,control records they all should come in same file with differnation in application sever.
check the sytax to do .
OPEN DATASET
Basic form 1
OPEN DATASET dsn.
Extras:
1a. ... FOR INPUT
1b. ... FOR OUTPUT
1c. ... FOR APPENDING
1d. ... FOR UPDATE
2a. ... IN BINARY MODE
2b. ... IN TEXT MODE [ENCODING (DEFAULT|UTF-8|NON-UNICODE)]
2c. ... IN LEGACY BINARY MODE [(BIG|LITTLE) ENDIAN] [CODE PAGE cp]
2d. ... IN LEGACY TEXT MODE [(BIG|LITTLE) ENDIAN] [CODE PAGE cp]
3. ... REPLACEMENT CHARACTER rc
4. ... IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS
5. ... AT POSITION p
6. ... TYPE c
7. ... MESSAGE m
8. ... FILTER f
In some cases, the syntax rules that apply to Unicode programs are different than those for non-Unicode programs. For details see the section File Interface.
Effect
Opens the specified file. If you do not specify a directory, the system uses the directory defined in the profile parameter DIR_HOME.
In programs without active Unicode check, the file is opened for reading in binary mode if you do not use any additions for OPENDATASET. To ensure downward compatibility with Releases <= 4.6, file names containing blanks are truncated at the position of the first blank.
In programs with active Unicode check, you must specify the access type (such as ... FOR INPUT, ... FOR OUTPUT, and so on) and the mode (such as ... IN TEXT MODE, ... IN BINARY MODE, and so on). If the file is opened using ... IN TEXT MODE, you must still use the addition ... ENCODING. If the Unicode check is enabled, it is possible to use file names containing blanks. Applying OPEN DATASET to a file already opened - in the same internal mode - triggers an exception of the type CX_SY_FILE_OPEN.
The Return Code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
The file was opened.
SY-SUBRC = 8:
The file could not be opened.
Example
DATA:
dsn(20) TYPE C VALUE '/usr/test.dat',
rec(80) TYPE C.
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
READ DATASET dsn INTO rec.
WHILE sy-subrc <> 0.
WRITE / rec. READ DATASET dsn INTO rec.
ENDWHILE.
CLOSE DATASET dsn.
The system opens the file test.dat in the directory usr of the application server and reads it line by line.
Notes
The system must be able to reach the file from the current application server. You cannot edit files from the current presentation server. If you need to do this, use the function modules GUI_DOWNLOAD and GUI_UPLOAD.
The form of the file name depends on the underlying operating system. To make your programs portable to different operating systems, use the function module FILE_GET_NAME, which returns the system-dependent name for an abstract file name. You can define file names using the transaction FILE.
The system automatically performs an authorization check. If this check fails, a runtime error occurs. You can prevent this by checking the authorization in advance using the function module AUTHORITY_CHECK_DATASET.
Note
Access rights to files:
When you create a file, it is created under the user name used to start the SAP System. This is not usually the name of the current user. To allow the system to create files, you must assign write authorization to the user name of the SAP System in the relevant directory.
Addition 1a
... FOR INPUT
Effect
OPEN ... FOR INPUT opens the file in read mode.
If the file does not exist, OPEN ... FOR INPUT fails with Return Code SY-SUBRC = 8.
Note
If OPEN DATASET is not executed in a Unicode program and if the user has write authorization for the file, the file is opened in read and write mode. Otherwise, it is only opened in read mode.
Addition 1b
... FOR OUTPUT
Effect
OPEN ... FOR OUTPUT opens the file in write mode.
If the file already exists, its existing content is deleted. If the file does not exist, the system creates it.
Addition 1c
... FOR APPENDING
Effect
OPEN ... FOR APPENDING opens the file in append mode.
If the file already exists, its contents are retained, and the system moves to the end of the file. If the file does not exist, the system creates it. If the file was already open, the system moves to the end of the file.
Note
When you open a file using FOR APPENDING, READDATASET always returns Return Code SY-SUBRC = 4 which is used to display the end of the file.
Addition 1d
... FOR UPDATE
Effect
OPEN ... FOR UPDATE opens the file in read and write mode.
If the file does not exist, OPEN ... FOR UPDATE fails with Return Code SY-SUBRC = 8.
Addition 2a
... IN BINARY MODE
Effect
Data is read or written unchanged (as stored in the memory). (For details, see READ DATASET and TRANSFER.)
This file format is used if you do not specify a MODE addition.
Addition 2b
... IN TEXT MODE [ENCODING (DEFAULT|UTF-8|NON-UNICODE)]
Effect
Data is read or written line by line. (For details, see READ DATASET and TRANSFER.)
Note
on ENCODING (DEFAULT|UTF-8|NON-UNICODE)
This addition specifies the character representation in the file:
DEFAULT
Corresponds to UTF-8 in Unicode systems and to NON-UNICODE in non-Unicode systems.
UTF-8
Characters are represented in the file in the format UTF-8.
NON-UNICODE
Characters are represented in the file in the code page defined by the text environment current at the time a READ or TRANSFER command is executed (see SET LOCALE LANGUAGE).
Addition 2c
... IN LEGACY BINARY MODE [(BIG|LITTLE) ENDIAN] [CODE PAGE cp]
Effect
Data is read or written in a form which is compatible to BINARY MODE in Releases <= 4.6. This addition is primarily used to convert a file into the code page format specified already when it is opened. At runtime, the system uses the format of the system code page of the application server. The system saves the file then again in the code page specified. This procedure is important if data is exchanged between systems using different code pages. For more information, see READ DATASET and TRANSFER.
Addition 2d
... IN LEGACY TEXT MODE [(BIG|LITTLE) ENDIAN] [CODE PAGE cp]
Effect
Data is read or written in a form which is compatible to BINARY MODE in Releases <= 4.6. This addition is primarily used to convert a file into the code page format specified already when it is opened. At runtime, the system uses the format of the system code page of the application server. The system saves the file then again in the code page specified. This procedure is important if data is exchanged between systems using different code pages. For more information, see READ DATASET and TRANSFER.
Notes
on BIG ENDIAN, LITTLE ENDIAN
These additions specify the byte sequence in which to store numbers (ABAP types I, F, and INT2) in the file.
These additions may only be used in combination with the additions IN LEGACY BINARY MODE and IN LEGACY TEXT MODE. If these are not specified, the system assumes that the byte sequence determined by the hardware of the application server is used in the file.
If the byte sequence specified differs from that determined by the hardware of the application server, READDATASET and TRANSFER make the corresponding conversions.
These additions replace the language element TRANSLATE ... NUMBER FORMAT ... which must not be used in Unicode programs.
on CODE PAGE cp
This addition specifies the code page which is used to represent texts in the file.
This addition may only be used in combination with the additions IN LEGACY BINARY MODE and IN LEGACY TEXT MODE. If this addition is not specified, the system uses the code page defined by the text environment current at the time a READ or TRANSFER command is executed (see SET LOCALE LANGUAGE).
This addition replaces the language element TRANSLATE ... CODE PAGE ... which must not be used in Unicode programs.
Addition 3
... REPLACEMENT CHARACTER rc
Effect
Specifies the replacement character which is used when a character cannot be converted during a character set conversion.
Note
This addition may only be used in combination with the additions IN TEXT MODE and IN LEGACY ... MODE. If the addition is not specified, "#" is used as the replacement character.
Addition 4
... IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS
Effect
This addition ensures that no exception is triggered when an error occurs during character set conversion and a file is accessed in read or write mode. If you do not use this addition, the exception CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE is triggered when a conversion error occurs. (For details see READ DATASET and TRANSFER.)
Addition 5
... AT POSITION p
Effect
Sets the read/write position in the file to p. p is interpreted as the byte offset from the beginning of the file.
Notes
You can use the command GETDATASET POSITION to access the current read/write position. This value can be used as the parameter p for the AT POSITION addition.
When you use the OPEN ... FOR OUTPUT AT POSITION ... variant, the file contents are destroyed if the file already existed. To prevent this from happening, use OPEN ... FOR UPDATE AT POSITION ... if you want to change an existing file at the position specified.
Addition 6
... TYPE c
Effect
You can specify additional file attributes in the field c. The field contents are passed to the operating system without changes and without any checks for correctness. For more information on the correctness of the attributes specified, refer to the open system call documentation of the relevant operating system.
Note
If the application server runs under Windows NT and the file was opened using IN TEXT MODE or IN LEGACY TEXTMODE, the TYPE addition is interpreted as follows:
c = 'NT'
The end of the line is marked with "CRLF".
c = 'UNIX'
The end of the line is marked with "LF".
Other
The addition is ignored, and the end of the line is marked with the line end character possibly already used in the file (see the note at the end of this document).
Example
Generating the OS/400 file test.dat with the properties specified under TYPE. The following example specifies the record length, the block size, and the record format.
OPEN DATASET 'test.dat'
TYPE 'lrecl=80, blksize=8000, recfm=FB'
FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
Addition 7
... MESSAGE m
Effect
If an error occurs opening the file, the corresponding message of the operating system is stored in the field m.
Example
DATA: dsn(20) VALUE '/usr/test.dat',
msg(100).
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR INPUT MESSAGE msg
IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
WRITE / msg.
STOP.
ENDIF.
Addition 8
... FILTER f
Effect
If you are working under UNIX or Windows NT, you can specify an operating system command in the field f.
Example
Under UNIX, the following
DATA dsn(20) VALUE '/usr/test.dat'.
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR OUTPUT FILTER 'compress'
IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
opens the file dsn and writes the data to the file in compressed form using the UNIX command compress.
OPEN DATASET dsn FOR INPUT FILTER 'uncompress'
IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
reads the file again.
Exceptions
Catchable Exceptions
CX_SY_FILE_OPEN
Cause: The file is already open (only in Unicode programs)
Runtime Error: DATASET_REOPEN
CX_SY_CODEPAGE_CONVERTER_INIT
Cause: The required conversion is not supported (because you specified an invalid code page or a language with SET LOCALE LANGUAGE not supported during conversion).
Runtime Error: CONVT_CODEPAGE_INIT (catchable)
CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
Cause: Internal conversion error
Runtime Error: CONVT_CODEPAGE (catchable
CX_SY_FILE_AUTHORITY
Cause: No authorization to access a file
Runtime Error: OPEN_DATASET_NO_AUTHORITY (catchable)
Cause: Authorization to access this file missing for OPEN DATASET with addition FILTER.
Runtime Error: OPEN_PIPE_NO_AUTHORITY (catchable)
CX_SY_PIPES_NOT_SUPPORTED
Cause: OPEN DATASET with addition FILTER is not supported on the current operating system.
Runtime Error: DATASET_NO_PIPE (catchable)
CX_SY_TOO_MANY_FILES
Cause: The maximum number of open files has been exceeded.
Runtime Error: DATASET_TOO_MANY_FILES (catchable)
Non-Catchable Exceptions
Cause: You attempted to open a pipe already open.
Runtime Error: DATASET_PIPE_POSITION
Note
End of line marking under Windows NT
Since under Windows NT the line end in text files can be marked both with " CRLF" and with "LF", text files are handled in a special way on this operating system when opened using FOR OUTPUT or FOR APPENDING:
You can use the addition TYPE to specify the desired end of line marking.
If you do not specify an end of line marking using the addition TYPE, the system searches the file (if it exists already) for end of line markings. The first marking found is used for future search operations.
If the file does not already exist or if no marking is found, the format specified in the profile parameter "abap/NTfopen" is used.
If the profile parameter is not set, "CRLF" is used.

Shortdump on File upload from unix and CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE
Hi,
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was no
caught in
procedure "OPEN_INPUT_FILE" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
clause.
Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
The reason for the exception is:
Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
conversion error occurs.
Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
'4110' or '4102' is not known to the system.
Example: µ is creating problems.
I have a problem in uploading the file with below format
F091US122580164 PECOSPHERE C18,3µm,33X4.6MM
1. I am using a custom program to read the file and then updating internal table
2. Unicode code system
Please help to resolve this issue.
Thanks and Regards,
RaveendraHi Raveendra,
Similar problem is faced by me in my current project. The solutions I have suggested are as below. I have not received any confirmation as to which solution to be applied.
To avoid the dump:
1. Read the file as a NON UNICODE file.
-- For this we use open dataset statement as OPEN DATASET <name> IN TEXT MODE FOR INPUT ENCODING NON-UNICODE. The file is read as a non-Unicode file. This avoids the dump but it uploads also the non Unicode data in the system. We need to analyse if this will cause any other effect on the system.
2. Upload file after removing the special characters
-- We need to upload the file again in the application server after removing the special characters in it.
3. Bypass the dump by displaying error message
-- By using OPEN DATASET........IGNORING CONVERSION ERROR, we can suppress the dump. Here the file is not read but only the dump is suppressed.

Raising exception in file......
Hi Experts,
This is my code for reading file from application server......
READ DATASET p_filename INTO p_read.
CATCH cx_sy_conversion_codepage INTO exc.
text = exc->get_text( ).
CONCATENATE text 'File: : ' p_filename INTO text.
Problem arise when number of file is 10000 this exception is raised.......which is producing dump....raising this exception.....
I want to by pass this exception .....
please guide me???
thanks
babbalHi,
use this code
TRY.
READ DATASET p_filename INTO p_read.
CATCH cx_sy_conversion_codepage INTO exc.
text = exc->get_text( ).
ENDTRY.
CONCATENATE text 'File: : ' p_filename INTO text.
