• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_TASK_MANAGER_MSG034 - Activation of '&1' unsuccessful: No authorization ?

  The SAP error message ESH_TASK_MANAGER_MSG034 indicates that the activation of a specific task (denoted by '&1') was unsuccessful due to a lack of authorization. This error typically occurs in the context of the SAP Enterprise Search or the SAP NetWeaver system when a user attempts to activate a task or perform an action for which they do not have the necessary permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorizations to activate the specified task. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Role Assignment Issues: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific task or action.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict access to certain tasks based on user roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Assign Missing Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, assign the appropriate roles that include the required authorizations for the task.
  Ensure that the roles are properly configured and include the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
  
  
  
  Review Task Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration of the task in the SAP system to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no restrictions based on user roles.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, attempt to activate the task again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
