An ABAP program can be terminated during runtime for a number of different reasons. The database table SNAPTID lists all existing runtime errors.
Use transaction ST22 to view the errors.
To allow clearer processing, the runtime errors are divided into categories:
|
Internal errors |
Error in the VM -> can only be reported to SAP using an error message. |
|
Errors in the ABAP runtime Errors in the screen runtime Errors in the database interface |
The system was able to roughly determine the area in which the error occurred. Next, clarify whether it was triggered by an internal error or by a programming error. |
|
ABAP programming errors |
Errors in the ABAP program, such as a division by zero or a catchable exception that was not caught. |
|
Installation errors |
These include, for example, inconsistencies between the kernel and the database. A typical installation error is therefore the error START_CALL_SICK |
|
Resource bottleneck |
Typical example: SYSTEM_NO_ROLL. The application no longer has sufficient memory available. |
|
External errors |
The error was caused by a call outside the system. Example: ● The code page of the operating system does not match the SAP system language ● An incorrect logon attempt occurred when calling outside the SAP system (for example, RFC SDK). |
|
End user errors |
These errors include, for example, incorrect end user printer settings. |
|
No error |
The program was not terminated due to an error, but rather due to deliberately performed actions. Example: If an administrator actively cancels a running transaction, the RABAX SYSTEM_CANCELED is thrown. In cases like this, no error correction is required. |
|
ST runtime errors |
The error occurred during a Simple Transformation (ST). The cause is a programming error in the ST program. |
|
Internal ST errors |
The error occurred during a Simple Transformation (ST). There is an internal error in the ST VM. |
|
XSLT runtime errors |
The error occurred during the execution of an XSLT transformation. |
|
ITS errors |
The error occurred in ITS. These are usually HTMLB errors, however the error could also be due, for example, to a resource error within the ITS |
