External command ( WINDOWS NT ) not terminating

Former Member — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 11:19:09 GMT

Hi,

I have an issue that on executing a windows NT command file that does a filter transfer. When executing manually on the server, it works well. But when executing command from SAP GUI, it is left hanging. The transfer was successful but the SAP program or job is not terminating.

We have run traces and the logs shows the execution has not stopped. The dev_cp log stops here:

> Function: BtcXpgStartXpgExport > Function: BtcXpgTable < Function: BtcXpgTable < Function: BtcXpgEndXpgImport > Function: BtcXpgEndXpgInt > Function: BtcXpgItTrans

Line Text

Target log table is not identical to source

ItGetLine terminated with NULL

< Function: BtcXpgItTransfer > Function: BtcXpgReadChild Output of external command not written to log !!

the dev_w* logs stope here:

SXPG: start

SXPG: 2011/01/10 09:02:35 984000

SXPG: Start status of external program: external program successfully started

Hello,

How are you executing the external command?

If you're using the FM 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' you need to pass ' ' to the param TERMINATIONWAIT.
