  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAMDP_TRACE100 - AMDP trace file &1 could not be found ?

    The SAP error message "SAMDP_TRACE100 AMDP trace file &1 could not be found" typically occurs when the system is unable to locate the trace file generated by an ABAP Managed Database Procedure (AMDP). This can happen for several reasons, and here are some potential causes, solutions, and related information:

    Causes:

    1. File Not Generated: The trace file may not have been generated due to an error in the execution of the AMDP.
    2. File Deletion: The trace file may have been deleted or moved after it was created.
    3. Incorrect Path: The system may be looking for the trace file in the wrong directory or path.
    4. Permissions Issue: There may be insufficient permissions to access the directory where the trace file is stored.
    5. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the SAP system that prevent the trace file from being created or accessed.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Execution: Ensure that the AMDP was executed successfully. If there were errors during execution, resolve those first.
    2. Verify File Location: Check the expected location of the trace file. You can usually find this in the configuration settings for AMDP or in the system logs.
    3. Permissions Check: Ensure that the user executing the AMDP has the necessary permissions to create and access files in the specified directory.
    4. Re-run the AMDP: If the trace file is missing, try re-running the AMDP to see if it generates the trace file again.
    5. Check System Logs: Look into the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any related error messages that might provide more context on why the trace file could not be found.
    6. Configuration Review: Review the configuration settings for AMDP in your SAP system to ensure everything is set up correctly.

    Related Information:
