  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W3_TOOL108 - Cannot display MIME objects under non-standard code pages ?
    SAP Error Message:
    W3_TOOL108 Cannot display MIME objects under non-standard code pages
    
    Cause
    This error occurs when the SAP Web Application Server tries to display MIME objects (such as images, HTML, or other multimedia content) but the system or user session is set to a non-standard code page that is not supported for rendering these MIME objects.
    
    Code pages define character encoding used by the system.
    MIME objects are typically stored and transmitted in standard encodings (like UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1).
    If the SAP system or user session uses a non-standard or custom code page, the Web AS cannot properly interpret and display the MIME content, leading to this error.
    
    
    Explanation
    
    SAP Web AS supports displaying MIME objects only under standard code pages.
    Non-standard code pages might be custom or less common encodings that do not have proper mappings for MIME content.
    This limitation is due to the way the Web AS handles character conversion and rendering of MIME objects.
