• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COV_LOG060 - Error in &1: System error at RFC after &2 ?

  The SAP error message COV_LOG060 indicates that there is a system error occurring during a Remote Function Call (RFC) operation. This error typically arises in the context of data transfer or communication between different SAP systems or between an SAP system and an external system.
  Cause:
  
  Network Issues: There may be network connectivity problems between the systems involved in the RFC call.
  Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration of RFC destinations or missing authorizations can lead to this error.
  System Performance: High load on the system or resource constraints (like memory or CPU) can cause timeouts or failures in processing RFC calls.
  Transport Layer Issues: Problems in the transport layer, such as issues with the SAP Gateway or the underlying communication protocols.
  Version Compatibility: Incompatibility between different versions of SAP systems can also lead to RFC errors.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Network Connectivity: Ensure that there is proper network connectivity between the systems. You can use tools like ping or traceroute to diagnose network issues.
  Review RFC Configuration: Verify the configuration of the RFC destination in transaction SM59. Ensure that the destination is correctly set up and that the connection parameters are accurate.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user credentials used for the RFC call have the necessary authorizations to perform the required operations.
  Monitor System Performance: Use transaction SM50 or SM66 to monitor system performance and check for any resource bottlenecks. If the system is under heavy load, consider optimizing performance or scheduling the RFC calls during off-peak hours.
  Review Logs: Check the system logs (transaction SM21) and the developer trace files (transaction ST22) for any additional error messages or stack traces that can provide more context about the error.
  Test RFC Connection: Use the Test Connection feature in transaction SM59 to verify that the RFC destination is reachable and functioning correctly.
