Problem with a stuck yellow process chain

Hi all,
I have a problem with a stuck yellow process chain.
A Meta chain calling a sub chain. The sub chain loads some master data.
Some months ago one process stopped in yellow, no processes still running.
So after that day when the meta chain runs the error msg is as follows
Diagnosis
The previous run of the current subchain, BW_METADATA_MD_ST , is not yet
     complete. This leads to communication errors with the metachain called,
     BW_METADATA_MD .
System response
The current run of the metachain is cancelled.
Procedure
1. End the previous run of the subchain, or wait until the run is
         complete.
         It does not matter whether the run was successfully completed or
         not.
2. Restart the metachain.
How do I end the previous run of the subchain?
There is no process running, just want to set the flag to ended.
Thanks in advance.
BR
Lars

Problem delete chang log from process chain BW 7.01

We have upgrade BW from 3.5 version to 7.01 version two month ago.
Now I realized that the process chain running one a week to delete PSA and change log don't work well after upgrade.
The process chain end without errors (status is green), but the change log are not deleted.
In the test system I try to delete the Change Log in 2 mode:
1-with the variant "Deletion of Requests from the Change Log " and the datastoreobject = myods and all the option (correct request, incorrect request and "Delete Activation Requests Only"). In the log i see this messagge
The following excluded selections will be processed:
No excluded selections found
The following included selectiosn will be processed:
Pattern: DataStore = 0FIGL_O06, InfoArea = *
The following reqeust selections were set:
Number of days = 0000000010, Successful = X, Incorrect = X, Curr. Requests =
The following change logs were selected:
2-with the variant "Deletion of Requests from PSA " and the datasource= 8myods and all the option (correct request, incorrect request). In the log i see this messagge
The following excluded selections will be processed:
No excluded selections found
The following included selectiosn will be processed:

The following reqeust selections were set:

The following PSAs were selected:
In both case the change log is not deleted.
I can delete the change log only using Manage screen of my ods and then using Menu -> Environment ->Delete Change Log Data.

I see that this topic is still active/unanswered...
We're having the same problem, but not just changelogs, also for PSAs. We have a weekly process chain that does housekeeping on our BW system, cleaning up PSAs and changelogs, compressing cubes, realigning time-dep masterdata and renewing indexes.
The PSA chain runs fine and about 90% of all PSAs get deleted, but there are some datasources (all of them are of type 8* datamart datasources) that don't get their PSAs deleted. It says "The following PSAs were selected:" and then nothing happens...
I tried all tickbox combinations and checked that there are no PSA entries blocked by invalid partitions. Manual deletion (via "manage" in the datasource) works fine, but is tedious and time consuming.
Also, most of the 8* datasource PSAs do get deleted. Just a handful (+/- 25) get skipped somehow.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Eduard
PS: We're still running 3.5-style backend dataflow, but will eventually get converted to transformations and DTPs. But that's not on our agenda (yet).

Hi
It seems you used infopack when you select update data inot datatarget then system prompts you a infopack.That's the infopack which is generated by system being used in process chain variant to update data into datatarget.
Create new infopack/ DTP manually then use that infoapck/DTP on the process chain variant then try.

Problem with getting back "synchronous" process result!!!

i have created the partner link to my synchronous process which is already on the server, along with the input and output variable for dealing with that particular process...
my input variable matches the xml schema of my synchronous process... when i expand the input variable node, i can see the elements which i'm trying to pass as the input to my synchronous server.
HOWEVER!!! there's a problem with my output variable, clicking expand on the node, it displays nothing (basically it's suppose to be in the format of the xml schema which i have specified).. hence i cannot work with the output of the asynchronous process...
cheers,
Shivek
how do i fix this problem..

can you please provide little bit more details? where do you click output variable? are you clicking from bpel console debugger?

what is the problem? how come i can't initiate the process?
i will be happy if i could get help..
thanks in advance

can you initate the process from the bpel console successfully?
if so can you use obtunnel from the installation to trace the soap message (that goes over the wire), my best guess in this case is a problem with a header (holding the wsa information) ..
after starting obtunnel it will liesten to a custom port, and will forward the request to the engine, so you need to point your client to this new port..

Problem when running GPS in Process Chains

Hi,
we have a GPS which has a set of planning functions. we have included this GPS in the Process Chain using "UPC_BUNDLE_EXECUTE". we have a selection of two profit centers. It has taken 18 hrs for the GPS to complete. it was running at its maximum speed on the background server it has run.
we split the GPS into two for the two profit centers creating the necessary planning package for the two profit centers. we modified the process chain to run the two GPS in parallel(one for each profit center). This is so that each GPS can run on one server. The background user is BWremote.
when we run the GPS on process chain one of the GPS has failed because of read locks. but the other has completed successfully. this might be because both the GPS were running under the same user id. when we run the same GPS in dialog under two different users at the same time it works fine.
Can anybody help us with some idea of how to run the GPS in parallel without locks for different selections. Is there anyway we can run them with out creating new users for each background job.
Thank you very much in advance.
Ravi.

Hi Ravi,
   Other than the level/package definition that need to be specific for each one of
   the Profit Centers with no overlap records between the two packages, you can
   also try using UPC_BUNDLE_EXECUTE_STEP program to split them into two
   and potentially run without locks in a sequence.Also make sure that the user
   id that is being used to run these functions has appropriate authorization that
   is hopefully not based on a hierarchy but based on Master data.
   Hope this helps.
Cheers

Issue with Delete Index in process chain

Hi All,
I have a situation with Delete Index in my process chain.
Delete Index step, before loading data to cube, is taking around 2Hr to complete but some times it completes within 5 mins.
Anyone faces such issue? If yes, how can I fix it?
Thanks and Regards,
Alok

Hi,
If Statistics are not maintained for the cube then also it might casue the high run time in index deletion.
if its urgent then, can u try doing it manually form performance tab....
or once process chain step is complete, create statistics for the cube. Next run should take less time
Please try.
Regards,
Gaurav

Problem faced in running the process chain

Hi All,
I am having a process chain having few warning..
But I want to schedule that process cahin but I am not able to do so, when I schedule it , it throws a message as
"chain changed, schedule in display mode not possible"..
So how can I schedule it.
Please share the information on it.
Thanks,
vinay.

Hi Vinay,
Have you transported this chain from Devlopment to Production, because sometimes the process chain change will not appear in display mode when you move any tranports, you have to go in a change mode of the particular process chain and activate it manually and try to schedule the process chain, it ll work.
Thanks

Problem with burning/image saving process...

It reported encoding error during the burning try... and it's hanged during 12 +/- hours with the saving image process (after encoding step)...
i checked the console and saw this piece of error repeated every 2 seconds during the 12 hours:
2006-05-11 11:24:25.279 EncoderServer[14780] CFLog (99): CFMessagePortCreateLocal(): failed to name Mach port (com.apple.idvd.EncoderServer)

See /usr/include/servers/bootstrap_defs.h for the error codes.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

it just hangs up in the audio encoding...
It will appear to do that under normal conditions. My 1 1/2 hour iMovie project took about 30 minutes to encode the audio on this computer; two chips working hard.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302988
I have read that some PowerBooks can take a long time to encode a project. Like 12 hours. That doesn't seem right to me, but I've seen it here.
Tell us more about what you're sending to iDVD. MiniDV coming from a camcorder set to record 16-bit audio, not 12-bit?

Problem in Infopackage included in process chain

I am trying to load data by executing infopackage in process chain . But i am getting the below warning and no data is loaded or request is created in the DSO .
The warning :
A type "Data Transfer Process" process has to follow process "Execute InfoPackage" var.ZPAK_4B99H61J5YH0F8TJ0OL2CUVHX in the chain

Hello,
I believe you are in BI7.
The point is that the infopackage(IP) loads data to the PSA and then you must run a DTP that will load data from the PSA to your DSO. So in your process chain, if you've added only the IP, your data is loaded only in the PSA
see there [http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/45/dc799c25c15592e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm]
Remind that you will also have to add the DSO activation at the end of your chain.
Best regards
Stephane

Problem with Apple Care Registration Process

My MacBook warranty will expire pretty soon. So, I ordered my Apple Care Protection Plan from Apple online store in Thailand since September 9, 2009. It arrived this morning (September 15, 2009).
When I try to register Apple care for my machine, Problem was starting. I do following on screen process, put my Macbook Serial No. and Apple Care Protection Plan registration No from package. Screen Show "We're sorry, but this registration number is not valid. Please check your information and try again."
I tried to contact Apple Care representative in Thailand. He was kindly enough to ask Apple online Store about this. He came back with answer that there are some problems about Apple care registration and I have to wait for week for response!!
Why product from apple online have this kind of problem? And customer have to wait for one week without knowing anything!!

You should be fine. The good thing is 1) you bought it from Apple and 2) you have contacted them about it before your initial warranty expired. Just be sure to follow up with them. If you haven't done so... you may want to give them a call back just to get a case number so you can have something to reference in case they don't get the problem sorted out before you warranty expires.

Problems with user-defined update-process

Hi.
I have a small problem in the right syntax in an user-defined updated process.
The process is called by a button on the page and should update a record in a table.
BEGIN
UPDATE wam_mod_allocation SET
alloc_assessment = V('P2120_ASSESSMENT'),
last_update_date = LOCALTIMESTAMP,
last_update_staff = V('APP_USER')
WHERE username = V('P2120_USERNAME')
AND module_id = V('P2120_MODULE_ID')
END;
This is the code of the process. The line with the problem is marked bold. P2120_USERNAME is a text field in the page and contains the username to be updated.
The problem is, that the comparison doesn't work. the value "smith" is available in the table and is the same as in the text field. (both in lower case).
If I replace the part V('P2120_USERNAME') with 'smith' (with single quotes), the update statement works properly.
How do I have to compare the username with the item value that it works properly?

1. Stephan
2 + 3 Well. I enclosed both tags in the TRIM-Operator and it works. First, I thought, a whitespace caused the problems. To determine which value contains the whitespaces I removed the trim-tags on both sides. It works.
It is quite funny, because,if I remove both tags, it works too? Well. Yesterday it didnt.
To be on the safe side, I will include the trim-tags.
Thanks very much.

10.4.9 and problems with rstarting and pcscd process

Since installing 10.4.9 I have noticed two problems on my PowerBook:
1) When I try and restart the machine all goes well until I get to the rotating clock icon (not sure what it is actually called) which looks like it is running a sytem check except the process never ends and I have to force a restart.
2) A process called pcscd takes over the system and uses over 80% of the processor causing the fan to blow. It never quits and I have to restart.
Are these bugs introduced with 10.4.9?
Tony

OK, I have tracked down the cause of this problem and it is related to a known bug. I recently purchased a Blackberry Pearl and there is a known issue with pcscd having problems when connected, possibly because it does not recognise the device. Here are some relevant links:

Very disappointing that Apple have not resolved this issue given that it has been known for some time.

Satus problem with Third party sales process

Hi Friends,
I have an issue with thrid party sales order processing
Step#1
My client runs the sales order for
Material Qty
p-100 10
p-101 10
p-102 10
step-2
Purchase requisition created and from vendor delivery happened
Step-3
My user created billing with reference of sales order for below material
Material quantity
p-100 20
p-101 10
p-102 20
step-4
user found mistake and he cancelled the invoice and created new billing document
for
material quantity
p-100 10
p-102 10
again he found mistake and cancelled this billing document and create one more billing document with reference of sales order
material quantity
p-100 10
p-101 10
p-102 10
now the issue is for p-100 and p-101 it showing being process and p-101 it showing status as completed
please suggest m

Dear Amar,
please see the billing document which you have cancelled and see the status of the item as well as you are saying,
that two items are cancelled, so i believe it is the sap functionality that it is showing the uncancelled item as complete.
also if the user has cancelled the whole document
kindly check all the documents again and then tell me
revert if helpful

Has anyone had a problem with a stuck mouse pointer?

The mouse pointer on my System recently started behaving oddly. The pointer works fine while the iMac boots. Once the boot is fully completed, the pointer is effectively stuck at the bottom of the display (before I launch any application). It is kinda like it is on a rubber band. If I move it quickly, it moves across the whole screen and then gets reset to the bottom of the display. If I move it slowly, it moves half an inch or less on screen and gets yanked back. If I boot into Safe Mode, the mouse pointer works normally. If I boot normally, but log into a different account, everything works fine. But for my primary account, the mouse pointer is messed up. I have run Norton and it finds no viruses or malware. I have run MacScan and it finds no malware.

Something must have worked - just got an E-mail from MacAce saying they've seen the problem and are arranging a refund.
