Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DB02119 - open_cursors. Most open cursors per user process. Default: >< 2,000,800. ?

  The SAP error message DB02119 indicates that the maximum number of open cursors for a user process has been exceeded. This is a database-related issue that typically occurs when an application opens more database cursors than the configured limit. Cursors are used to manage the context of a query and allow for the retrieval of rows from a result set.
  
  Cause:
  
  Exceeding Cursor Limit: Each database connection has a limit on the number of cursors that can be opened simultaneously. The default limit is often set to a high number (like 2,000,800), but it can still be exceeded if the application does not close cursors properly.
  Poorly Managed Database Connections: If the application does not close cursors after use, or if there are memory leaks in the application, it can lead to an accumulation of open cursors.
  Long-Running Transactions: Transactions that take a long time to complete can hold onto cursors longer than necessary,
