Runtime Dump solution required

[Former Member]

when running the program in background it gives short dump at a remote function call(CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_MAIL'

DESTINATION 'CC_MAIL'

EXPORTING

USER = E_MAIL_USERS-UNAME

TABLES

MAIL = MAIL_TAB .)

It was logged under the name "RFC_EXTERNAL_ABORT"

on the called page.

what happended : ("mail terminated with exit code 256 (Command not found ?)."

The current ABAP/4 program had to be terminated because

of the above FM statements could not be executed.

This is probably due to an error in the ABAP/4 program.

The error occurred in an RFC call to another system.

The target system has also written a short dump.

where is the change required ? and what is the exact problem..?

thanx in advance.

Please post the code that contains the FM call.

Hi,

Probably there are two reasons for this :

1) A logical system is not defined - which must not be the scene in your case.

2) The volume of data that is being processed through the RFC is huge, this would in turn result into time_out scenario and give a dump as well.

Hi,

The reason for dump would probably be large volume of data you are passing. If so once you pass the data - break it into small chunks in internal table on the other end(in your RFC) then apply the required processing on the data, this would not let the time-out condition occur.

Ashok,

Has this worked in the past in background? Or is this the first time that you are trying it?

Does it work in foreground processing?

And definitely not "timeout" related.

[Former Member]

no it worked properly in the Back ground earlier.

still i didnt get what is problem and where is the change required?

[Former Member]

Hey,

You can avoid the short dump by adding this bit to your code.

EXCEPTIONS

communication_failure = 1 MESSAGE msg_text

system_failure = 2 MESSAGE msg_text

OTHERS = 3.

Evaluate the contents of the variable MSG_TEXT. Hope this helps troubleshoot your problem.

Hi Ashok,

Please let me know if you have found the resolution to this issue. We are facing the similar issue.

Thanks and Regards
