Some wrong with C_WRITE_SYSLOG_ENTRY to write some logs into System Log

We have many SAP System, in one SAP System (SAP R/3 Kernel   46D_EX2), we call the following code.
BEGIN OF syslog_msg,
        area(2)         TYPE c VALUE 'YI',
        subid(1)        TYPE c VALUE 'T',
      END OF syslog_msg,
call 'C_WRITE_SYSLOG_ENTRY'
    id 'TYP'  field  'I'
    id 'KEY'  field syslog_msg
    id 'DATA' field 'Hello World'.
The orignial Data is ITM-$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
On this SAP System, the System log will be dumped out with ITM-$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
But on other SAP System (6.20, 6.40, 7.00, 7.01), the System log will be dumped with
ITM-Hello World
What's wrong with 4.6D EX2?  and tips for this, who can help me?

Hello Prasanth
I agree with Kareem that you should prefer the application log. If interface IF_RECA_MESSAGE_LIST is available on your SAP system this is the first choice for collecting messages AND storing them as application log.
For an example you may have a look at my Wiki posting [Message Handling - Finding the Needle in the Haystack|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/profile/2007/07/09/MessageHandling-FindingtheNeedleintheHaystack]
Not shown in this example is the storage of the application log. However, if you look at method CF_RECA_MESSAGE_LIST=>CREATE you see that you can add the application log references here.

  • ICal writing tons of log messages into system.log

    Hi all,
    I've got an issue with iCal under Leopard 10.5.1.
    Sometimes my syslogd process grabs ~100% CPU time and so I took a look into system.log.
    I saw MANY lines like this:

    Any idea how to fix this?
    Here's another problem that might be related to this: my "Private" calendar was published in 10.4 but now the webdav server that was used for this is no longer existent (and can't be setup again).
    So I wanted to unpublish my Private calendar but this wasn't possible. When trying to unpublish it I get the error message "This calendar could not be unpublished. Authentication information may be incorrect."
    If I select the "Cange location..." menu entry in the context menu of the Private calendar I still see the webdav server address and the Login and Password fields are filled. But because this server no longer exists publishing is no longer possible. Which is fine with me.
    So, how can I get rid of the publishing? Because I get tons of error messages in system.log, too, for this behaviour. Everytime the system tries to publish this calendar...
    Thanks,
    Stefan.

    I am not much of a help, but I just wanted to say that my iCal just experienced the same problems for the first time today...

  • I have a time capsule that has worked flawlessly for several years.  I recently upgraded my iMac OS to 10.8.4 and coincidently (or not) have started having some issues with backups.  When I go into time machine, it struggles to find the time capsule disk

    I have to unplug my time capsule and reboot it.  Is there a diagnostic routine I can run or any error detection I can look for?

    You are absolutely right.. when apple changed significant features in Lion and Mountain Lion .. they introduced a bunch of issues into networking which are bugs to this day..unacknowledged.. and without much that will fix them.. other than your reboot strategy.. which is like.. well that other OS.. where continual reboots are considered normal.
    Old TC may also just suffer from age.. we continually tell people they have a lifespan.. 3years is the reliable span.. after that expect anything.. sudden death.. slow decline.. continual hassles and problems. If the backups are important to you.. then it is telling you in a very clear way.. replace me.. I am no longer happily providing services promised.
    Now to specifics.. we don't know what the problem is.. if we knew we could give some work around.
    The problem is odd in that it doesn't affect everyone.. if it starts .. people find it starts several months in to ownership.. it is never cured.. or even curable.. something like DNS or ARP table is being lost.. but it is not either of those things.
    Is there a diagnostic routine I can run or any error detection I can look for?
    Nothing much shows up anywhere. Including the TC log or local logs. It simply has lost the TC disk but not internet.
    So.
    Some things do help.
    I don't know if you have pondini's resources.. TM is a complex piece of software.. it has multiple issues.
    http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    Look at A1 .. load the widget.
    A5 .. verify the backup.
    A4 .. reset TM.
    All of those things can help.. look at some of the typical problems.. C12 and C17 being the most common since Lion.. and exacerbated in Mountain Lion.. not fixed.
    Some suggestions.
    1. Keep names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. See C9 http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
    2. Do not use 7.6.3 firmware... go back to 7.6.1 or even better 7.5.2 on an old one.
    Firmware downgrade is easy in new utility. Hold down the option key whilst selecting version.
    3. I recommend a very short dhcp lease time.. 20min for example. In whatever device is the router .. that can help keep things up to date.. and use dhcp reservation again to see if the address info helps to keep things updated.
    4. Do turn on ipv6 local link.. which you need to anyway with 6.3 utility.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
    5. If you are using a desktop.. an external drive is faster.. more reliable and easier than TC for Time Machine backups..
    6. Consider using CCC or another backup software.. if you want to continue to use network drive.
    7. Although using 6.3 airport utility has some advantages.. it is also devoid of a lot of tools that are in v5.6 airport utility.. well worth loading into at least one computer on the network.. if you only have Mountain Lion now here is one method.
    How to load 5.6 into ML.
    1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
    Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
    Leave the package open on the desktop so you can see the file. AirportUtility56.pkg
    2. Download and install unpkg.
    http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
    Run unpkg on the desktop.. If your Mac refuses to run the software, because it wasn’t downloaded from the Apple store, go to security in preferences and allow other software to work.. this is limitation of trade methinks. You can set back later if you like.
    Now drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. in finder, open the new directory, drill down.. applications, utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
    You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. although I have had no problems when doing so.

  • OC4J Logging into Application.log

    Hi someone,

    After 10 Hours i find the solution ;-(
    The Application.log can be write with this code:

    very simple but not find in the OC4J Doc's

  • Diverting Logging from System Log

    There is a known issue with RsyncX (University of Michigan version) and Tiger where RsyncX writes an erroneous error message to the System Log for every file it is processing. The problem is that the System Log can quickly grow to an enormous size and take up all vacant disk space.
    So... is there any way I can redirect the logging to the likes of /dev/null ?
    I've tried adding a "2>$1 /dev/null" to the end of the rsync command but this doesn't catch the logging.
    Thanks
    -david

    I've managed to stop the messages with an edit to syslog.conf but it did not involve any redirection to /dev/null. Full details for anyone searching for same thing...
    The /etc/syslog.conf file is the configuration file for the syslogd program and specifies what levels of log messages to send to what log files.
    The following line of my conf file detailed what messages got sent to /var/log/system.log...
    .notice;.info;authpriv,remoteauth,ftp,install.none;kern.debug;mail.crit /var/log/system.log
    The particular selector which was catching the rsyncx error was kern.debug. The 'debug' level is the lowest severity of message - i.e. it catches all messages being generated by the 'kern' facility (presumably short for 'kernel'). If this selector is raised just one level of severity to 'info', then the rsync error stops being caught and logged...
    .notice;.info;authpriv,remoteauth,ftp,install.none;kern.info;mail.crit /var/log/system.log
    Of course, this edit will also catch any other debug level messages from being logged but until Rsyncx itself is updated, this solution seems an acceptable one.
    To get the syslogd to reread the conf file, first get the PID from /var/run/syslog.pid and then HUP it with 'kill -1'
    -david
    PS. Roger, sorry, that was a typo. The syslog messages don't seem to be part of the stdout or stderr.

  • Logged into Guest; Logged into Primary; LOST EVERYTHING!

    I want to warn you of what just happened to me over the weekend using Snow Leopard.
    When logging into my computer, I accidentally hit the "Guest" account. Usually, the login takes a few seconds. After about 1-2 minutes, I figured it had froze up trying to log in, so I held the power button to force shutdown and restart. Well, I restarted and logged into my primary account and guess what!?!? Absolutely everything on the computer got deleted and reset to basically what the computer is from the factory. All programs, documents, music, images, EVERYTHING is gone. It is as if my computer was completely reformatted in a matter of seconds upon logging in. This isn't a joke either. I lost everything.
    I haven't heard back from Apple yet (talked to them on the phone yesterday). Apple support is supposed to call me back after they investigate within their records/database to see if there's a fix. I was advised to disable the Guest account immediately and get a backup drive for the future to back everything up. Regardless I believe they may turn the cold shoulder because AppleCare does not cover data loss. I ran a data recovery program to see if it is recoverable, but since the files I want weren't "deleted" files, I don't think I'll get everything back...

    how do I prevent Snow Leopard's guest account from deleting all my files again in the future?
    I guarantee that this had nothing to do with the guest account. If logging in to the guest account erased your hard drive, you'd hear tens of thousands of complaints here, yet I don't. Yours is the first such complaint I've heard.
    Most likely, what has happened is that your hard drive is badly damaged. Try opening Disk Utility, then select your hard drive and click First Aid then Verify Disk. I'm betting that it comes up with problems. If it does come up with problems, you'll need to repair it, though I wouldn't do anything to it until you have recovered your data. To repair the startup drive, you have to restart from the Mac OS X install disk and open Disk Utility through the Utilities menu.
    Unfortunately, if you don't have backups, you're going to be stuck relying on data recovery software to get your data back. Even if the software can get everything back, it won't be well-organized and you'll be spending a lot of time sorting out all your files. Once you have recovered from this problem, your first priority should be making a backup of all your data. See my [Mac Backup Guide|http://www.reedcorner.net/thomas/guides/backups> for help with that.

  • View incoming attempts to log into system

    I just bought a new AirPort Extreme Base Station (802.11n) and it works well. However, with my former Belkin G router, I could view all incoming attempts to log into the system (that were blocked). I cannot seem to find any function in the AEBS similar to that. Is there, or is there other software I can use to do so?

    I ran across this the other day, from JN Software, the developer of Preferential Treatment.

  • AirPort.log versus system.log

    My Time Capsule is configured to send logging data to my iMac. This works well, but the data is collected in both AirPort.log and in system.log.
    Is there any way to prevent the data being sent to system.log, while still keeping it going to AirPort.log?
    My current /etc/syslog.conf file looks like this, in part:
    .err;kern.;auth.notice;authpriv,remoteauth,install.none;mail.crit /dev/console
    *.notice;authpriv,remoteauth,ftp,install.none;kern.debug;mail.crit /var/log/system.log
    authpriv.*;remoteauth.crit /var/log/secure.log
    local1.* /var/log/ipfw.log
    *.emerg *
    local0.* /var/log/AirPort.log

    Based on my reading of the syslog.conf man page, if you modify the one line to:
    *.notice;local0,authpriv,remoteauth,ftp,install.none;kern.debug;mail.crit /var/log/system.log
    That should stop your airport log stuff from going to the system.log.

  • I can't connect to the itunes store and have some problems with other websites. Some websites load OK. I had the same problem on my iPad and changed the DNS, but don't want to do this on my iMac, anyway, surely I should have my router's DNS?

    I can't connect to the iTunes store from my iMac and have problems loading a number of other websites, however some websites load perfectly well. I have had the iTunes store issue on my iPad and resolved it by changing the DNS but surely I should use the DNS for my router. I don't really want to change it for the iMac as I access secure sites with it to internet shop.
    Any ideas, I was going to try loading Chrome but can't get it without going through the iTunes store. Anyway, that is treating the symprom not the cause.

    Adding Open DNS codes to your Network Preferences, should give good results in terms of speed-up as well as added security, (including anti-phishing and redirects) (Full information about Open DNS is here: http://www.opendns.com/home/nobloat ) and further independent information can be read here:

    Open System Preferences/Network. Double click on your connection type, or select it in the drop-down menu, and in the box marked 'DNS Servers' add the following two numbers:

    208.67.220.220
    (You can also enter them if you click on Advanced and then DNS)
    Sometimes reversing the order of the DNS numbers can be beneficial in cases where there is a long delay before web pages start to load, and then suddenly load at normal speed:

  • Is it OK to have some tracks with ac3 audio, and some with AIFF?

    The reason I ask this is I decided to do my DVD with AIFF audio, to keep the quality as high as possible (it's a tutorial series for some music software.)
    I have been using the Compressor preset for "Best quality 150 minutes - 4:3" to encode my video, and the video looks fine for my needs. And I was using the AIFF part of that compressor preset for audio.
    However, now having got the entire Disc 1 of the DVD together, I'm slightly over the size limit for a Dual Layer (it's maybe only 110 minutes per layer, so I figured using the 150 minute preset with AIFF would be close) - but I was over by about 160 mb.
    So I took the longest chapter and encoded just that one chapter in ac3, and knocked off 200 mb, and now it will supposedly fit.
    So my question is: is this allowed? Can you have all chapters (tracks) with AIFF, except one chapter with ac3, in the same DVD? There is only one audio stream. Thanks....

    OK Then, Stephen,
    Then it's even worse than I thought. If all your clips are playing from start to finish, one right after the other then they all need to be one mpeg stream in a single track (I am the only one having trouble with this? ). You've got a single movie, friend.
    Currently, the way you have it set up is - after every clip in each separate VTS (Track) finishes playing, the player's laser has to back up to head of the playing clip (where it started) enter the VTS IFO area (language domain) and get the command to go back to the head of the disc, just as I outlined before. The command to get to the next Track is at the head of the disc! So you just jumped all the way across the surface of the disc to get a command that will take you back to where you just were, unecessarily (Note: It's a DVD Specification rule that there are no jumps between VTS's allowed; only through the Video manager at the head of the disc, resides near the inner hub, can you route from one VTS to another).
    Why not create an ultra compatible DVD?
    Remember, DVD players are going for as little as $9 these days. Not all are created equal. The mechanics of how a laser works is very rudimentary. If you release lots of DVDs nationally and / or internationally it's best to make your navigation as easy on these players as possible. Trust me on this. My recommendation keeps the players laser on the platter throughout all the clips. What your proposing adds, unnecessarily, extremely risky jumps back and forth across the disc, after every clip (jumps are OK, but only for a reason).
    I've had projects come to me for proofing that were set up similarly to yours that were slated for a quarter million replication run. They redid the project according to my direction - to the letter (I'm nicer in person ). This happens regularly.
    If this is your only release, then you may as well go out with a bang, by doing it right?
    Or never mind, it's your DVD. Of course, the proper startup action and layer break placement, and other parameters are probably out of whack, too (not your fault, you're new), and none of that information is in the manual.
    It was good to meet you, Stephen and hello everyone! I've been "kinda busy", as they say the last year. Still 7 days a week in everything DVD and Blu-ray, but I do check in from time to time.
    Take care,

  • Missing time, so unable to log into system with out changing time.

    My issue is missing time. I have a lab with about 20 mac minis on the network for students to log in.
    Some days the date and time are off by 6 hours so this prevents users form being able to log in.
    We can log in as admin and change the time and date we can log in again.
    Has anyone else had this issue where the time is behind about 6 hours?
    I dont think it is a battery issue since the day is only behind and reverted back to orginal born on date.
    Any assistance would be appricated.
    Thanks,

    Thanks for the info I will try chaning out the battery on a system and see if that works. Chaning out battery on these things is time comsuming and not an easy thing to do.
    I just never seen this type of behavior before on any computer. I seen when batteries die and that will cause issues but not like this.
    I will get back to you to award points if this does resolve the issue.
    Thanks again for the info a brody.

  • Firefox browser must be refreshed to log into and log out of Simple Machine Forum. No other browser does this.

    I run a Simple Machines Forum (SMF) Whenever I log in or out of my forum using Firefox (Ver 4.0.1) my browser gets "hung up." As soon as I type username, password, and hit enter the forum goes to a white screen that just sits there. To force the page to load I have to hit refresh in my browser. The page then loads and I'm able to go on as usual. The same exact scenario happens when I try to log out of my forum. I hit logout and the page goes to the white screen. It sits there until I hit refresh in the browser and then it will log me out. This does not happen with logging in or out of the forum with any other browser. I've tested this issue in Internet Explorer, Safari, and Chrome. Logs me in and out with no issues. With Firefox I get stuck. Asked for help on the SMF forum. Other users have reported having this issue as well. Was advised to rename the forum cookie. Did that and it has not helped. I do believe the issue is with my particular install of Firefox. Any help would be appreciated.

    You can check for problems with preferences.
    Rename or delete the prefs.js file and possible numbered prefs-##.js files and a possible user.js file to reset all prefs to the default value.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem.

  • Lost root passwd; can't log into system

    I have an UltraSPARC 5 that's currently running Solaris 8. I haven't used it for years (long story) but am not trying to get it back in action. The problem is that I can't remember the passwd for root (or any other login, for that matter). I wanted to do a reinstall of either Solaris 8 or try out Solaris 9 but the system just boots straight into the existing OS load. Is there a way to force the boot sequence into the OK prompt? I'm afraid my Solaris/SPARC is very rusty these days.

    Hi
    1. You will need to know the root partition (/dev/sd0a or /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0).
    2. Hit the STOP-A or L1-A to halt the system.
    3. Boot into single user mode, either from CDROM (boot cdrom -s) or across the network (boot net -a).
    4. Mount the root partition on /a (mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /a).
    5. If you are using a Sun console, type "TERM=sun; export TERM".
    6. Remove the encrypted password from the root line of one of the follwing files:
    a. For SunOS 4.x - /a/etc/passwd
    b. For SunOS 4.x with shadow passwords/C2 - /a/etc/passwd.adjunct
    c. For solaris 2.x - /a/etc/shadow
    7. Now change directories to the root (cd /)
    8. Type "umount /a"
    9. Now reboot into single-user mode (boot -s). The system will not have a root password. Use the passwd command to enter a new password.
