  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCND/GENERATOR079 - Generation of lock object &1 started. ?

    The SAP error message /SAPCND/GENERATOR079 typically indicates that the generation of a lock object has started, but it may not necessarily indicate an error by itself. Instead, it is more of an informational message that is part of the process of generating lock objects in the SAP system.

    Cause:

    1. Lock Object Generation: This message is generated when the system is in the process of creating a lock object. Lock objects are used in SAP to manage concurrent access to database records, ensuring data integrity.
    2. Development Environment: This message often appears in a development environment when changes are made to the data model or when new lock objects are being created as part of a transport request.

    Solution:

    1. Wait for Completion: If you see this message, it may simply mean that the system is processing the generation of the lock object. You should wait for the process to complete.
    2. Check for Errors: After some time, check if there are any subsequent error messages or logs that indicate a failure in the generation process. If the process hangs or takes too long, you may need to investigate further.
    3. Review Transport Requests: If this message appears during a transport, ensure that the transport request is correctly configured and that all necessary objects are included.
    4. Check System Logs: Use transaction codes like SLG1 (Application Log) or SM21 (System Log) to check for any related errors or warnings that might provide more context.
    5. Re-run Generation: If the generation fails, you may need to re-run the generation process for the lock object. This can typically be done through transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE54 (Lock Object Maintenance).

    Related Information:

    • Lock Objects: Lock objects are defined in the Data Dictionary (SE11) and are used to prevent simultaneous access to the same data by multiple users or processes.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE54 (Lock Object Maintenance), and SE80 (Object Navigator) for managing and troubleshooting lock objects.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to lock object generation. You can search for specific notes using the SAP Support Portal.

    If you continue to experience issues or if the message is accompanied by other error messages, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.
