  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAML2148 - Can't create pse: '&1' ?

    The SAP error message SAML2148, which states "Can't create pse: '&1'", typically relates to issues with the creation of a PSE (Personal Security Environment) in the context of SAP's security framework, particularly when dealing with Secure Network Communications (SNC) or Single Sign-On (SSO) configurations.

    Cause:

    The error can occur due to several reasons, including:

    1. Insufficient Permissions: The user executing the command may not have the necessary authorizations to create or modify the PSE.
    2. File System Issues: There may be issues with the file system, such as insufficient disk space, read/write permissions, or the directory not existing.
    3. Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration settings in the SAP system or the underlying operating system can lead to this error.
    4. Missing Dependencies: Required libraries or components for creating the PSE may be missing or not properly installed.
    5. Corrupted PSE: If an existing PSE is corrupted, it may prevent the creation of a new one.

    Solution:

    To resolve the SAML2148 error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Permissions:

      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to create and manage PSEs. This typically requires administrative privileges.
    2. Verify File System:

      • Check the file system for sufficient disk space.
      • Ensure that the directory where the PSE is being created exists and has the correct permissions set for the SAP user.
    3. Review Configuration:

      • Check the configuration settings in the SAP system related to PSE creation. This includes verifying the paths and parameters in the SAP profile and transaction settings.
    4. Check for Missing Components:

      • Ensure that all required libraries and components for PSE creation are installed and properly configured.
    5. Recreate PSE:

      • If the PSE is corrupted, you may need to delete the existing PSE and recreate it. Use transaction STRUST to manage PSEs.
    6. Consult Logs:

      • Review the SAP system logs (transaction SM21) and the developer traces (transaction ST22) for any additional error messages that may provide more context.
    7. SAP Notes:
