  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBDYNPRO_RT012 - Number of round trips ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WEBDYNPRO_RT012 - Number of round trips


    Cause:

    The error message WEBDYNPRO_RT012 occurs in SAP Web Dynpro applications when the number of round trips between the client (browser) and the server exceeds a predefined limit. A "round trip" refers to a request sent from the client to the server and the corresponding response back to the client.

    This situation typically arises when:

    • The Web Dynpro application performs too many server calls in a short period.
    • There is inefficient UI design causing excessive server communication.
    • A loop or repeated action triggers multiple server requests unintentionally.
    • Network latency or performance issues cause delays, making the system detect too many round trips.

    SAP sets a limit on the number of round trips to prevent performance degradation and to avoid overloading the server or network.


    Solution:

    To resolve the WEBDYNPRO_RT012 error, consider the following steps:

    1. Optimize the Web Dynpro Application:

      • Review the UI design and logic to reduce the number of server calls.
      • Avoid unnecessary UI updates or frequent data fetching.
      • Use client-side processing where possible to minimize server round trips.
      • Combine multiple server calls into a single call if feasible.
    2. Check for Loops or Repeated Actions:

      • Debug the application to identify if any event handlers or methods cause repeated server calls.
      • Fix any infinite loops or repeated triggers in the UI logic.
    3. Adjust the Round Trip Limit (if appropriate):

      • The limit for round trips can be configured in the SAP Web Dynpro framework.
      • Use transaction SMICM or adjust parameters in the Web Dynpro configuration to increase the allowed number of round trips.
      • Note: Increasing the limit is generally not recommended unless you are sure the application requires it and the system can handle the load.
    4. Performance Tuning:

      • Check network performance and server load.
      • Ensure that the backend system is responsive and not causing delays.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Note: Check for any SAP Notes related to WEBDYNPRO_RT012 for your specific SAP version.
    • Web Dynpro Round Trip Limit Parameter:
      The parameter controlling the maximum number of round trips is often found in the Web Dynpro configuration or can be influenced by the parameter wd_roundtrip_limit.
    • Transaction / Tools:
      • Use ST22 to check for dumps related to this error.
      • Use SMICM to monitor ICM and network performance.
      • Use Web Dynpro Trace to analyze round trips and performance.

    Summary:

    • Cause: Too many client-server round trips in a Web Dynpro application exceeding the configured limit.
    • Solution: Optimize UI and backend logic to reduce round trips, fix loops, and if necessary, increase the round trip limit.
    • Related Info: Check SAP Notes, use debugging and tracing tools, and monitor system/network performance.
