  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message S_LMCFG_CLM020 - PSE &1 &2 is invalid ?

    The SAP error message S_LMCFG_CLM020 indicates that there is an issue with the PSE (Personal Security Environment) in the system. This error typically arises when the PSE is either invalid, corrupted, or not properly configured. The PSE is crucial for secure communication in SAP systems, especially for SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connections.

    Cause:

    1. Corrupted PSE: The PSE file may be corrupted or improperly generated.
    2. Invalid Certificate: The certificates within the PSE may have expired or are not valid.
    3. Missing PSE: The PSE file may not exist in the expected location.
    4. Configuration Issues: There may be misconfigurations in the SSL settings or the PSE path.
    5. Permissions Issues: The user or service may not have the necessary permissions to access the PSE.

    Solution:

    1. Check PSE Validity:

      • Use transaction code STRUST to check the status of the PSE.
      • Verify that the certificates are valid and not expired.
    2. Recreate PSE:

      • You can export the existing PSE, delete it, and then import it again if necessary.
    3. Update Certificates:

      • If the certificates are expired, you will need to update them. Obtain new certificates from the certificate authority (CA) and import them into the PSE.
    4. Check Configuration:

      • Ensure that the SSL configuration is correct. Check the instance profile for the correct PSE path.
      • Verify that the SSL parameters are correctly set in the instance profile.
    5. Permissions:

      • Ensure that the user or service account has the necessary permissions to access the PSE file and its directory.
