    • Message Number: 140
    • Context: Transport tool operations, often during import/export or transport request handling.

    Cause

    The WER_UI140 message usually indicates a problem related to the transport tool's user interface or the processing of transport requests. Common causes include:

    • Inconsistent or incomplete transport requests: The transport request might be locked, incomplete, or corrupted.
    • Authorization issues: The user performing the transport operation may lack necessary authorizations.
    • Transport tool configuration errors: Incorrect settings in the transport tool or CTS.
    • System inconsistencies: Issues in the transport directory, transport buffer, or related system components.
    • Communication problems: Network or RFC connection issues between systems involved in the transport.

    Typical Message Text

    While the exact text can vary, messages in the range 141 to 149 often provide details about specific transport tool problems, such as:

    • Transport request not found or locked.

    Solution

    To resolve the WER_UI140 and related transport tool messages, consider the following steps:

    1. Check Transport Request Status:

      • Use transaction SE09 or SE10 to verify the status of the transport request.
      • Ensure the request is released and not locked.
      • If locked, unlock or delete the request if appropriate.
    2. Verify Authorizations:

      • Confirm that the user has the necessary roles and authorizations for transport operations.
      • Typical authorization objects include S_TRANSPRT, S_CTS_ADMI, and S_RFC.
    3. Check Transport Directory and Buffer:

      • Verify that the transport directory (usually /usr/sap/trans) is accessible and has sufficient space.
      • Check for any file system issues or permission problems.
    4. Review Transport Tool Configuration:

      • Check the CTS configuration in transaction STMS.
      • Ensure that the transport routes and systems are correctly defined.
    5. Check System Logs and Dumps:

      • Use SM21 (system log) and ST22 (short dumps) to find related errors.
      • Look for RFC or communication errors.
    6. Test RFC Connections:

      • Use SM59 to test RFC connections between systems involved in the transport.
      • Fix any connection issues.
    7. Restart Transport Tools or Systems:

      • Sometimes restarting the transport tool or the SAP system can clear transient issues.
    8. SAP Notes and Support:
