  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WL000 - Runtime handle of object type & could not be created ?

    The SAP error message:

    WL000 Runtime handle of object type & could not be created

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Web Dynpro or other runtime environments where an object instance cannot be created dynamically at runtime.


    Cause

    • Object Instantiation Failure: The runtime environment tries to create an instance (handle) of a particular object type (class or component), but this creation fails.
    • Missing or Incorrect Class/Component: The object type specified might not exist, or the class/component is not properly activated or available in the system.
    • Memory or Resource Issues: Insufficient memory or system resources can prevent the creation of runtime objects.
    • Authorization Issues: The user or process might lack the necessary authorizations to instantiate the object.
    • Incorrect Configuration: The configuration or metadata describing the object type might be corrupted or inconsistent.
    • Transport or Patch Issues: Missing transports or incomplete patches can cause inconsistencies leading to this error.

    Solution

    1. Check Object Type Name:

      • Verify the object type (class/component) name passed in the error message.
      • Ensure that the object exists in the system and is active.
    2. Activate Relevant Objects:

      • Use transaction SE24 (Class Builder) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to check and activate the class/component.
      • If it is a Web Dynpro component, ensure it is activated in SE80.
    3. Check System Logs:

      • Use transaction SM21 or ST22 to check for related dumps or errors that provide more context.
    4. Check Memory and Resources:

      • Monitor system memory and resources.
      • If the system is under heavy load, try again after freeing resources.
    5. Check Authorizations:

      • Verify that the user executing the process has the necessary authorizations to instantiate the object.
    6. Reapply Patches or Transports:

      • If the error started after a system change, verify that all relevant transports and patches are correctly applied.
    7. Debugging:

      • If you have development access, debug the program or Web Dynpro application to see exactly where the object creation fails.
    8. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to the error message WL000.
      • Contact SAP Support if the problem persists.
