  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KPT3015 - Wait &1 in background for debugging: On ?

    The SAP error message KPT3015 "Wait &1 in background for debugging: On" typically indicates that a background job is waiting for a debugging session to be attached. This can occur when a background job is executed in debug mode, and the system is waiting for a developer or administrator to connect a debugger to the job.

    Cause:

    1. Debugging Mode: The background job was started with debugging enabled, which is not typical for production jobs. This can happen if the job was manually started in debug mode or if a developer set it to run in debug mode for testing purposes.
    2. No Debugger Attached: The job is waiting for a debugger to be attached, which means that it cannot proceed until someone connects to it.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that are causing jobs to run in debug mode unintentionally.

    Solution:

    1. Terminate the Job: If the job is not meant to be debugged, you can terminate it. You can do this through transaction code SM37 (Job Monitoring) by selecting the job and choosing to cancel it.
    2. Check Job Configuration: Review the job configuration to ensure that it is not set to run in debug mode. This can be done in the job definition in transaction SM36.
    3. Run Without Debugging: If you need to run the job, ensure that it is executed without debugging. You can do this by not selecting the debug option when scheduling the job.
    4. Attach Debugger: If you need to debug the job, you can attach the debugger to the background job. You can do this by using transaction SE80 or SE38 to start the debugger and then attaching it to the running job.
    5. Check for System Settings: If this issue occurs frequently, check the system settings or consult with your SAP Basis team to ensure that there are no global settings causing jobs to run in debug mode.
