• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5K143 - Error while reading TemSe file &1 ?

  The SAP error message 5K143 ("Error while reading TemSe file &1") typically indicates an issue with the Temporary Sequential (TemSe) file in the SAP system. TemSe is used by SAP to store temporary data, such as spool requests, background jobs, and other transient information.
  Causes:
  
  File Corruption: The TemSe file may be corrupted, which can happen due to system crashes, improper shutdowns, or disk issues.
  Disk Space Issues: The disk where the TemSe files are stored may be full, preventing the system from reading or writing to the files.
  Authorization Issues: The user or process trying to access the TemSe file may not have the necessary permissions.
  Database Issues: Problems with the underlying database (e.g., connectivity issues, database corruption) can also lead to this error.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings related to the TemSe management in the SAP system.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Disk Space: Ensure that there is sufficient disk space on the server where the TemSe files are stored. If the disk is full, free up space or increase the disk capacity.
  Check for Corruption: Use transaction SM21 (System Log) to check for any related error messages that might indicate corruption. You may need to run a consistency check on the TemSe files.
  Repair TemSe: If corruption is detected, you can use transaction SARA to archive and delete old TemSe entries or use transaction SP01 to manage spool requests.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user or process has the necessary authorizations to access the TemSe files.
  Database Check: If the issue persists, check the database for any errors or inconsistencies. You may need to consult your database administrator for assistance.
  Restart the System: In some cases, a simple restart of the SAP system can resolve temporary issues.
