Shortdump while calling UNIX command

Former Member — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 03:47:08 GMT

Hi all,

I have a problem while trying to remove a file in UNIX platform in ABAP program.

It is working fine in the development and quality server, but not in production server.

Based on the debug result, the shortdump was thrown while executing "CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD lv_command".

Below are the message return in the program shortdump


How to correct the error                                   
    You can check the authorization beforehand with the    
    function module AUTHORITY_CHECK_C_FUNCTION.


Short text                                             
    No authorization to call the C function "SYSTEM".


DATA: lv_command(100) TYPE C,
        client_path LIKE RCGFILETR-FTAPPL,
        server_path LIKE RCGFILETR-FTAPPL.

  DATA: wa_files  TYPE rsfillst,
        it_files  LIKE TABLE OF wa_files.

  CALL FUNCTION 'SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST'
    EXPORTING
      dirname      = gv_unix
      filenm       = '*'
    TABLES
      file_list    = it_files
    EXCEPTIONS
      access_error = 1
      OTHERS       = 2.

  IF  sy-subrc = 0.
    LOOP AT it_files INTO wa_files WHERE TYPE <> 'directory'.

      CONCATENATE wa_files-dirname wa_files-name INTO server_path.
      CONCATENATE p_fname wa_files-name          INTO client_path.

      CALL FUNCTION 'C13Z_FILE_DOWNLOAD_ASCII'
        EXPORTING
          i_file_front_end    = client_path
          i_file_appl         = server_path
          I_FILE_OVERWRITE    = 'X'
        EXCEPTIONS
          FE_FILE_OPEN_ERROR  = 1
          FE_FILE_EXISTS      = 2
          FE_FILE_WRITE_ERROR = 3
          AP_NO_AUTHORITY     = 4
          AP_FILE_OPEN_ERROR  = 5
          AP_FILE_EMPTY       = 6
        OTHERS                = 7.

      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        concatenate 'rm -f' server_path into lv_command separated by space.
        condense lv_command.

        CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD lv_command.

        CLEAR: lv_command.
      ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
  ENDIF.

Anyone knows why and how to resolve this?

Kindly provide your feedback and input. Thanks in advance.

You don't have authorisation in PRD to remove files. If it is really required for you.

Take SU53 screen shot immediately once you get short dump and follow up with Basis Folks for required authorisation.

Thanks,
