  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBDYNPRO_TR003 - Name or type of object &1 is not correct ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WEBDYNPRO_TR003: Name or type of object &1 is not correct


    Cause:

    This error occurs in the context of Web Dynpro development or runtime when the system encounters an object name or type that does not conform to the expected naming conventions or object types. Specifically:

    • The object name provided (e.g., component, interface, controller, or other Web Dynpro object) is invalid or incorrectly specified.
    • The object type referenced is not recognized or does not match the expected type.
    • There might be a typo or mismatch in the object name or type in the Web Dynpro application or configuration.
    • The object might not exist in the system or is not properly activated.
    • Sometimes, this error can occur if the Web Dynpro component or object was deleted or renamed but references to it still exist.

    When does it occur?

    • During Web Dynpro application runtime when the system tries to instantiate or reference a Web Dynpro object.
    • During Web Dynpro component activation or transport.
    • When calling a Web Dynpro component or interface programmatically with incorrect parameters.

    Solution:

    1. Check Object Name and Type:

      • Verify the exact name of the Web Dynpro object (component, interface, controller, etc.) you are referencing.
      • Ensure the object type matches the expected type (e.g., you are not referencing a component as an interface).
    2. Verify Object Existence and Activation:

      • Go to the Web Dynpro component/interface in the SAP GUI (transaction SE80 or WD_COMPONENTS).
      • Check if the object exists and is active.
      • If inactive, activate the object.
    3. Correct References:

      • If the error occurs in code, check the method calls or instantiations where the object is referenced.
      • Correct any typos or incorrect object types.
    4. Check Transport and System Consistency:

      • If the object was recently transported, ensure the transport was successful and the object exists in the target system.
      • Sometimes re-importing or re-activating the object in the target system helps.
    5. Clear Cache and Restart:

      • Sometimes, Web Dynpro runtime caches old metadata.
      • Clear the Web Dynpro cache via transaction SICF (reset services) or by restarting the ICM or application server.
    6. Debugging:

      • Use the debugger to check where exactly the error is raised.
      • Check the call stack and parameters passed to the Web Dynpro framework.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SE80 - Object Navigator (to check Web Dynpro components)
      • WD_COMPONENTS - Web Dynpro Components repository
      • SICF - Internet Communication Framework (to reset services)
      • SE24 - Class Builder (if the object is a class)
    • SAP Notes:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to WEBDYNPRO_TR003 in the SAP Support Portal for any patches or known issues.
    • Documentation:

      • SAP Help Portal on Web Dynpro development and naming conventions.
      • SAP Web Dynpro ABAP Developer Guide.

    Summary:

    The error WEBDYNPRO_TR003 indicates an invalid or incorrect Web Dynpro object name or type. The fix involves verifying the object name and type, ensuring the object exists and is active, correcting references, and clearing caches if necessary.
