  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WK600 - **** LDAP **** ?

    The SAP error message WK600 ** LDAP ** typically relates to issues with LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) integration in SAP Workflow. This error often occurs when SAP Workflow tries to communicate with the LDAP server for user or organizational data but encounters a problem.


    Cause

    • LDAP Connection Issues: The SAP system cannot connect to the LDAP server due to network problems, incorrect LDAP server address, or server downtime.
    • Incorrect LDAP Configuration: Wrong LDAP parameters in SAP (e.g., wrong port, base DN, user credentials).
    • Authentication Failures: The user or service account used by SAP to bind to LDAP is invalid or locked.
    • Certificate or SSL Issues: If LDAP communication is over SSL/TLS, certificate problems can cause failures.
    • Timeouts or Performance Issues: LDAP server is slow or unresponsive.
    • User or Organizational Data Missing: The requested user or organizational unit does not exist in LDAP or is not accessible.

    Solution

    1. Check LDAP Connection:

      • Use transaction LDAP or LDAP Browser in SAP to test the connection.
      • Verify the LDAP server hostname, port, and protocol (LDAP or LDAPS).
      • Ping the LDAP server from the SAP application server to ensure network connectivity.
    2. Verify LDAP Configuration in SAP:

      • Go to transaction SICF and check the service /sap/bc/ldap if applicable.
      • Check LDAP parameters in transaction SICF or LDAP configuration (e.g., in transaction SICF or via IMG under Cross-Application Components > SAP NetWeaver > LDAP Integration).
      • Confirm the base DN, user DN, and password are correct.
    3. Check User Credentials:

      • Verify the LDAP bind user credentials are valid and not expired or locked.
      • Reset password if necessary.
    4. Check SSL/TLS Certificates:

      • If using LDAPS, ensure the SAP system trusts the LDAP server’s SSL certificate.
      • Import the LDAP server’s certificate into SAP’s SSL client PSE (using transaction STRUST).
    5. Review SAP Workflow Configuration:

      • Check the workflow container or step that triggers LDAP access.
      • Ensure the user or organizational data requested exists in LDAP.
    6. Check Logs and Traces:

      • Review SAP system logs (transaction SM21).
      • Check workflow logs (transaction SWI1 or SWEL).
      • Enable LDAP trace if needed for detailed error info.
    7. Coordinate with LDAP Administrator:

      • Confirm LDAP server status and logs.
      • Check for any recent changes in LDAP schema or access policies.
