Import queue is running - couldn't delete

Hi,
   I have imported a request (by manually copying the export to import folders - since they are different servers on windows). The first imort worked well, importing all data dictionary objects.
When I tried to import the function group, function module, the import started running (it keeps showing  running even after an hour), but function module and function group are not imported. When I tried to import again, I couldn't import again, I am getting the message - import queue is still running. I closed the queue and deleted the queue and recreated the queue, but it looks like some background process is still running.
Could anyone help? Thanks,
Regards,
Sundar.

Hello Sundar,
In case you are talking about TP imports -STMS then there might be some old TP processes running at os level.Please kill them. Also delete any enries you find in /usr/sap/trans/tmp folder pertaining to the transport and then also delete any entries in import monitor.
After this you can start afresh with the imports.
Regards.

  • Need to delete the SPAM requests from the import queue

    Dear all,
    There were some issues with my QA system SAP patch application and we were forced to do a DB refresh from our production system. Now our QA system ABAP stack is having an issue with the  STMS import queue which shows 4 old patches(witch were applied to the system before the refresh)  with u201Crequest will not be importedu201D status. When I try to delete these requests from the import queue it shows the following error
    u201CThis is tp version 372.04.29 (release 700, unicode enabled)
    ERROR: Client 'ALL' is not possible.
    tp returncode summary:
    TOOLS: Highest return code of single steps was: 0
    ERRORS: Highest tp internal error was: 0246
    standard output from tp and from tools called by tpu201D
    When I try to import a new support package it gives the  following error,
    Error in phase: CHECK_REQUIREMENTS
    Reason for error: QUEUE_NOT_EMPTY
    Not sure how these requests arew still in the import queue even after the DB refresh. How can I delete these 4 old requests from the import queue?
    The System is ECC6.0 ABAP+JAVA stack with Oracle 10g on Win2003 server.
    Thank you,

    Dear Ganesh,
    I have tried the steps you suggested, but still the import queue is not cleared.
    Now I just wanted to remove these entires from the STMS=>queue=>import queue list.
    Number   Request      Clt   Owner          Short Text
         1   SAPKB70013   ALL   SAPUSER        Basis Support Package 13 for 7.00
         2   SAPKA70013   ALL   SAPUSER        ABA Support Package 13 for 7.00
         3   SAPKB70014   ALL   SAPUSER        Basis Support Package 14 for 7.00
         4   SAPKA70014   ALL   SAPUSER        ABA Support Package 14 for 7.00
    I think these requests(Patches) are not there in the tp buffer/(import queue) but somehow some table entries shows the status that they are still in the  queue. So I just wanted to reset the status that These TPs are already applied.
    Thank you,

  • Cannot delete service pack in import queue

    Hi all,
    we restored our system and I want to apply some patches now. In SPAM I get an error that the queue is not empty.
    I checked STMS and found a support package stuck in the import queue which we tried to upload before we restored the system.
    I tried to delete it but the delete job get stuck while the taskbar shows "tp user check ok".
    Can anyone give me a hint how I can free the import queue again?
    Thanks in advance

    I solved the problem.
    I just give the answer in case anyone experiences a similar problem.
    The thing was, that the file did not exist anymore but the queue was still blocked because the buffer was not cleared after the system was restored.
    All I needed to do was to delete the file "<sid>" in the folder /usr/sap/trans/buffer and do a refresh in transaction STMS.
    Hope this will help someone in the future
    Cheers

  • How to delete 100+ released requests from the import queue?

    Hello
    How to delete 100+ released requests from the import queue?
    One by one or there is more convinient way?
    Thanks

    To delete multiple non-imported transport requests, you do the following while in the import queue on STMS:
    1) Highlight the status field of the import queue.
    2) Sort the import queue by the status.
    3) Put your cursor on the first non-imported transport, right-click, and click on Select Block.
    4) Scroll down and put your cursor on the last non-imported transport, right-click and click on Select Block. This will highlight all requests from the first one selection to the last one selected.
    5) Go to menu option Request > Delete.
    If all of the requests in the import queue haven't been imported (no imported, including failed import, requests), you can jump to Steps 3-5.

  • Need TP command for Add  Transport Request to import Queue all at a time

    Hi SAP gurus,
    Can you tell the o/s  or  TP  command  to  Add   Transport Request to import Queue all at a time which are available in co files directory   ,
    Because I have to add 500- 600 request .  For every request I canu2019t  do like this  STMS_IMPORT  -- Extras=> other requests -add--
    Thanks and regards

    Hi,
    You can export list of all transport requests from your DEV system in one shot, from SE09-> Display (provide your required selection criteria) -> Goto -> "Display as List"
    You can export these all Transport Requests as Spreadsheet. Then Filter out all your required 400 to 500 Transport Requests.
    Now,use another excel sheet to create a file with the list of required transport request Nos only, then concatenate all of them to generate the required TP commands as mentioned below.
    The syntax will become as follows:
    column1           column2         column3
    tp addtobuffer DEVK900123 <SID> pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp addtobuffer DEVK900124 <SID> pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp addtobuffer DEVK900125 <SID> pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp addtobuffer DEVK900126 <SID> pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp addtobuffer DEVK900127 <SID> pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp import          DEVK900123 <SID> client=### pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp import          DEVK900124 <SID> client=### pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp import          DEVK900125 <SID> client=### pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp import          DEVK900126 <SID> client=### pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    tp import          DEVK900127 <SID> client=### pf=<Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL
    -> Open Notepad and Copy+Paste these three columns & save the text file in the <Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\ folder.
    -> Then rename this .txt file to *.bat.
    -> open a command prompt and change to the <Drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\ folder and run the .bat batch file.
    Make sure that object lists of all the Trans. Requests are checked and confirmed for the transport to avoid data incosistency in target system. (e.g. Number Range Object)

  • How to clear import queue?

    Hi All,
    we are using WebAS 6.20 and we have a huge number of transports in our landscape.
    The import queue of our systems therefore is quite big (several thousand transports) and slow.
    I found an option "Delete Imported Requests".
    But most of the transports get a yellow (ready for import again) or green (waiting to be imported) status after import and not an "already imported" status.
    So the option above ignores them.
    Any ideas welcome.
    Thanks in advance,
    Martin

    Hi Martin,
    Generally, you'll want to keep the list of transports shown in the queue short and leave the transport files out on in the transport directory for a longer period of time. But, that of course depends on how much space you have and the policies your company has for keeping files around.
    Is this for a large installation of SAP?
    Thanks,
    J. Haynes

  • Systems in same transport domain, but PRD import queue is empty

    Hi all!
    I have previously set up ERP 2005 development and QAS system, and there has been some development and transporting occuring between these two systems. Now I have installed the production system and added it to the transport landscape in STMS. The three system are in the same transport domain and the same transport group. In STMS I have created the Delivery route to the PRD system.
    When I check the import queue for the production system, only transports created AFTER the installation of the production system appear in the import queue. Transports created and released from DEV to QAS before the production system was available is not displayed in the queue.I know that I can add single requests to the import queue easily, but that required a lot of manual work and making sure that the transports are added to the queue in the correct sequence.
    How can I get all the transports to appear in the PRD system import queue? In AL11 in PRD, I am able to access the TRANS_DIR and I see all the transport requests in the directory.
    Regards,
    Thomas

    Hi Thomas,
    "Only transports created AFTER the installation of the production system appear in the import queue." - <b>This is expected</b>
    From table E070, you can get a list of all transport imported into QAS system. Sort that list according to the date imported, and save the transport requests into a text file.
    Run this below script from production by logging in as <sid>adm.
    Provide the transport text file as an input to the script. It will add the transports to queue automatically one by one.
    @echo on
    set SID=<Prd SID>
    set CL=<Client>
    set filename=<drive>:\usr\sap\trans\scripts\transports.txt
    FOR /F "tokens=1,2* delims=K" %%i in (%filename%) do (
    tp addtobuffer %%iK%%j %SID% client%CL% pf=<drive>:\usr\sap\trans\bin\TP_DOMAIN_%%i.PFL >> )
    Before running the script, take a backup of the production buffer at the OS level, incase u need to restore it.
    Cheers,
    Fahad

    Hi Danny,
    Can u just clear us is the is the problem with transport control program is resolved.
    in the above reply u r telling the requests don't load in the queue.
    Is that means spool request or transport request. please clear the point.
    Also as ur telling in  SM21: "Spool is full" ; and another message says: "Run-time error "SPOOL_INTERNAL_ERROR" occurred"
    are occurring. Can u just go to those work processes, and analyze the trace file errors(which will be listed in red colour).
    if ur having any issues, paste the trace file error log here.
    let us know if u have any issues,
    Regards,

  • STMS import queue

                 Think some body deleted TR request (or something happend in the import queue) from the import queue, from that day onwards there was no transports are going on from development to quality systems. is there any chance to rebuild import queues, it was a problem in STMS imports.
    pls help me.

  • Import queue frequently goes into locked status.

    Hi Team,
    In STMS--->import overview---->( SID ) 
    Im fornt of SID , we see locked button  frequently. Even after unlocking the queue, it comes again.
    Please let me know if you have any hint on this.
    Best Regards,

    Hi,
    SAP_BASIS release ?
    Check weather the <SID>_MOVE.LOC file is there under \usr\sap\trans\buffer directory ? <SID> is the System ID for which the import queue is getting locked frequently.
    If such file is there, then delete it. Then refresh the Import Queue.

  • Import queue

    Hello friends,
    is it possible to have a list of all TRs that have been deleted from the import queue on a SAP instance, on SAP or OS level (AIX) ?
    Thanks in advance,
    J.

    Hi Niko,
    I tried to solve the problem, by checking tables E070 and E071.
    My new question would be:
    I need to know how can I check why the transports have been deleted from a queue.
    To be more explicit:
    I have the data and the cofile on OS level, but on SAP level (QAS) they do not appear. I checked in se01, in import queue and so on, but they are not there.
    How can I check why they were deleted, or by who ?
    Is there any place I can check ?
    PS: they do not exist in:/usr/sap/trans/log
    Thanks in advance,

  • Transport mass addition to the import queue

    I have around 500 transports to be added into import queue after refresh. Now if i add once at a time, it will take a lot of time. Is there a way to add multiple transports at the same time.  I know about running multiple transports in a single type but not sure about adding them in a queue.
    Also we are doing this as a part of refresh, do we hvae a better way rather than to take the transport backup of requests waiting to be imported and manually add than run them again one by one.
    Thanks.

    Refer to the below link:

  • Who clear the import queue?

    Hello,
    The import queue at our site was cleared by someone. I recovered the queue from backup but would like to know if there is a way to discover who cleared the list?
    TIA,
    Yossef

    There is more than one way how an import queue might have been deleted.
    The file may have been deleted or emptied at OS level, by tp command or other operating system commands. Follow Rishi's advice to investigate further.
    All the transports may have been deleted from the queue by means of transaction STMS. In this case you may find out from the transport protocols the time when this happened. Then you may find out who called STMS at that time by transaction STAD.
    hope this helps
