Error while deleting object in eclipse - object does not exist (BTP)

sebastian_wilhelm1 — Thu, 18 Apr 2024 13:07:19 GMT

Hi experts! I imported a package with objects (classes,...) from github into eclipse/ABAP Environment.

When I try to open a class, I get a message that the object does not exist. When I try to delete the object, I get the same message. When I try to delete the package I get a message that the package cannot be deleted because it contains objects. Push/pull from/to github doesn't work. I get a message "eclipse doesn't respond" and I have to close eclipse. Unlink the github repository and link it again didn't work also.

Does anyone know, how I can delete the not existing objects and package?

Thanks, Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

That happens to me very often. The only solution I found was to create the object again using the same exactly name (you will not get a message about the object already existing). Add some dummy code, activate the object and then proceed to delete it.

Hi Diego!

I aleady tried this but unfortunately this didn't solve my problem. Maybe it is because of the customer-namespace/used software component!?
