Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_PROCESS165 - No active VE-Processor Application, process aborted ?

  The SAP error message:
  WGDS_PROCESS165 No active VE-Processor Application, process aborted
  typically occurs in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) or SAP Event Management (EM) when a process tries to execute a VE-Processor (Value-Added Event Processor) application, but no active instance of the VE-Processor application is found or running.
  
  Cause
  
  No active VE-Processor application instance is running: The process that requires the VE-Processor to be active cannot find any running instance.
  The VE-Processor application might not have been started or has stopped unexpectedly.
  Configuration issues where the VE-Processor application is not properly assigned or activated.
  System or network issues causing the VE-Processor application to be unreachable.
  In some cases, the VE-Processor application might be active but not registered correctly in the system.
  
  
  Explanation
  The VE-Processor is a component in SAP Event Management that processes events and triggers actions based on event data. If the VE-Processor application is not active, event processing cannot continue, leading to the process being aborted with this error.
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check VE-Processor Application Status
  
  Verify if the VE-Processor application is running.
  In SAP Event Management, use transaction /SAPTRX/VEP or relevant monitoring tools to check the status of the VE-Processor.
  Alternatively, check the operating system or application server where the VE-Processor runs to ensure the process is active.
  
  
  
  Start or Restart the VE-Processor Application
  
  If the VE-Processor is not running, start it.
  If it is running but not responding, restart the application.
  This can often be done via SAP NetWeaver Administrator or relevant process management tools.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration
  
  Ensure that the VE-Processor application is correctly configured and assigned to the relevant event types or processes.
  Verify the configuration in the Event Management customizing (SPRO) under Event Management ? Process Management ? VE-Processor.
  
  
  
  Check Logs and Traces
  
  Review application logs for any errors related to the VE-Processor.
  Check system logs (SM21), application logs (SLG1), and trace files for clues.
  
  
  
  Network and System Checks
  
  Ensure there are no network issues preventing communication with the VE-Processor.
  Check system resources to ensure the VE-Processor can run properly.
