SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HTA_HDI_WSM - Messages for Workspace Management

• Message number: 608

• Message text: Test: 'Creating Database Procedures Required by AS ABAP'

What causes this issue?

External user-provided services are used for communication between the
back end of SAP Web IDE for SAP HANA (DevX) on SAP HANA XS advanced
(XSA) and the SAP HANA database of AS ABAP. These services are created
by HTA in the ABAP system space in XSA. A single service contains the
connection data to a HDI container in the SAP HANA database in AS ABAP,
including a technical user. When executed, the script creates a database
user with an associated database schema. The SAP HANA procedures
required later to create technical users are created in this database
schema.

System Response

This program checks whether the SAP HANA procedures are created in the
configuration by creating a technical user for testing purposes (and
deleting the user again immediately). If any errors occur, the program
displays appropriate error messages.

If errors occur and you have not yet executed the actions in the section
<LS>Creating Database Procedures Required by AS ABAP</> in the
configuration guide <LS>Configure your ABAP Development System for
Development of HDI Objects</>, proceed as described in this section.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HTA_HDI_WSM608 - Test: 'Creating Database Procedures Required by AS ABAP' ?

  The SAP error message HTA_HDI_WSM608 typically occurs during the deployment of an SAP HANA database artifact, particularly when creating database procedures that are required by the ABAP application server (AS ABAP). This error can arise due to various reasons, including issues with the database connection, missing privileges, or problems with the procedure definitions themselves.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Database Privileges: The user executing the deployment may not have the necessary privileges to create or modify database procedures.
  Syntax Errors: There may be syntax errors or issues in the SQL script used to define the database procedures.
  Database Connection Issues: Problems with the connection to the HANA database can lead to failures in creating procedures.
  Existing Objects: If a procedure with the same name already exists and cannot be replaced or modified, this can cause the error.
  Resource Limitations: Insufficient resources (like memory or disk space) on the HANA database can also lead to failures in creating new objects.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check User Privileges: Ensure that the user has the necessary privileges to create and modify database procedures. This can be done by checking the roles assigned to the user in the HANA database.
  Review SQL Syntax: Validate the SQL script for any syntax errors or issues. Use a SQL editor or HANA Studio to test the script independently.
  Verify Database Connection: Ensure that the connection to the HANA database is stable and correctly configured. Check for any network issues or misconfigurations.
  Handle Existing Objects: If a procedure with the same name exists, consider dropping it or renaming the new procedure to avoid conflicts.
  Monitor Database Resources: Check the HANA database for resource availability. If necessary, optimize the database or increase resources.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  HANA Studio: Use HANA Studio or SAP Web IDE to debug and test the SQL procedures before deployment.
  Logs and Traces: Review the logs and traces in the HANA database for more detailed error messages that can provide insights into the failure.
  Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for guidelines on creating database procedures and managing database artifacts.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the HTA_HDI_WSM608 error and implement the appropriate solution.
