• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TR039 - Object &1 locked in request with status 'Release started' ?

  The SAP error message TR039 indicates that an object (like a transport request) is locked because the transport request is in the status "Release started." This typically occurs when a transport request is being processed, and another action is attempted on the same object while it is still locked.
  Cause:
  
  Transport Request in Progress: The transport request is currently being released or processed, which locks the object.
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process is trying to access or modify the same object while it is locked.
  Incomplete Release: The release process may have been interrupted or not completed properly, leaving the object in a locked state.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Logs: Review the transport logs to see if there are any errors or issues that need to be addressed.
  Wait for Release Completion: If the transport request is actively being processed, wait for it to complete. You can check the status of the transport request in the Transport Organizer (transaction SE09 or SE10).
  Unlock the Object: If you determine that the transport request is stuck or has failed, you may need to unlock the object manually. This can be done using transaction SE03:
  
  Go to transaction SE03.
  Select "Transport Organizer Tools."
  Choose "Unlock Objects."
  Enter the transport request number and unlock it.
  
  
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may be processing the transport request. Check the job overview (transaction SM37) to see if there are any jobs related to the transport request that are still running.
  Contact Basis Team: If you are unable to resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact your SAP Basis team for assistance. They can help investigate the transport request and resolve any underlying issues.
