How To Fix BT130 - Failed to delete log for job &1, count &2

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: BT - Background processing messages

• Message number: 130

• Message text: Failed to delete log for job &1, count &2

What causes this issue?

The background processing system was unable to delete the job log of the
job named in the message.
The most probable cause of this error is a problem in the TEMSE database
component of the SAP system. The background processing system stores
job logs as small sequential files in this database (TEMporary
SEquential objects).

System Response

If the FORCEDMODE parameter was set in the call to the BP_JOB_DELETE
function module, then the background processing system ignores this
error and deletes all other components of the job.
Otherwise, the deletion is terminated. The job has not been deleted.

How to fix this error?

You can delete the job again using "forced mode" to ignore the error.
This option is available in the programming interface in the
BP_JOB_DELETE function module and interactively in report RSBTCDEL.
Failure to delete a job log is not a critical problem.
You should in any case also use the analysis functions in
<DS:TRAN.SP12>the TEMSE database management facility</> to check the
database and delete "orphaned" objects that no longer have any use to
the System.
