Dump error when clicked on text elements in SAP Script window

rekha_manjunath2 — Wed, 30 Apr 2014 18:35:38 GMT

Hi All,

There is an inclusion in SAP Script. I have written the code in driver program. I need to pass the value to SAP Script in the requested position. But when I go to SE71 > Form Name > Change or Display > MAIN Window > Text Elements > I get a dump error.

Category               ABAP Programming Error
Runtime Errors         DATA_LENGTH_TOO_LARGE
Except.                CX_SY_RANGE_OUT_OF_BOUNDS
ABAP Program           SAPLSTXK
Application Component BC-SRV-SCR
Date and Time          30.04.2014 20:00:08

Short text
Invalid partial field access: Length is too large

What happened?
Error in the ABAP Application Program

The current ABAP program "SAPLSTXK" had to be terminated because it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.

What can you do?
Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.

To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
administrator.

     Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
     at and manage termination messages, and you can also
     keep them for a long time.

Error analysis
     An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
     The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_RANGE_OUT_OF_BOUNDS', was not
      caught in
     procedure "TOKEN_COMMENT" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
     Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
     exception would occur, the current program is terminated.

    The reason for the exception is:
    In the executed program "SAPLSTXK", the system attempted to access the field
    "ITF_TOKEN" of the type "C" and with the length 255 using the length 272.
    However, a partial field access with a length specification that is
    larger than the field length is not allowed.

How to correct the error
Reduce the length used to access the field.

    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
    find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:

    "DATA_LENGTH_TOO_LARGE" "CX_SY_RANGE_OUT_OF_BOUNDS"
    "SAPLSTXK" or "LSTXKFRN"
    "TOKEN_COMMENT"

If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
notification to SAP, include the following information:

1. The description of the current problem (short dump)

To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
(Unconverted)".

2. Corresponding system log

       Display the system log by calling transaction SM21.
       Restrict the time interval to 10 minutes before and five minutes
    after the short dump. Then choose "System->List->Save->Local File

How do I open the text elements? I need to pass the variable inside SAP Script.

Please Help. The requirement is pending from very long. Not able to rectify this issue.

Hi Miguel,

The release for SAP_BASIS in our SAP is 731. So it is a higher version than the one specified in the note. Kindly let me know what can be done?

Hi,

The only action I can think of besides reporting this to OSS would be trying to bypass dump via debugger, by manually restricting l_len to 255 (maximum length of itf_token). It may get tricky and/or tedious getting to the state just prior to error via debugger, but try setting breakpoint on itf_token(l_len) = l_token... The offending token seems to be a comment line, so no form logic should get destroyed if it will be truncated.

Hi Jānis,

Thank you very much. This option did work!!!! I changed the offset length in debugging mode.

I am able to enter the text elements and pass the value.!!
