  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI352 - Error saving archive data ?

    The SAP error message WTADDI352: Error saving archive data typically occurs during the archiving process, specifically when the system tries to save data to the archive file but encounters an issue.


    Cause

    • File system or storage issues: The archive file cannot be written due to insufficient disk space, file system permissions, or file locks.
    • Transport or network problems: If the archive file is stored on a network drive, connectivity issues can cause write failures.
    • Incorrect archive file path or name: The path or filename specified for the archive file is invalid or inaccessible.
    • Authorization problems: The SAP user or background job does not have the necessary authorizations to write to the archive file location.
    • Corrupted archive file or buffer: The archive buffer or file might be corrupted or inconsistent.
    • System or kernel errors: Underlying OS or SAP kernel problems affecting file I/O operations.

    Solution

    1. Check disk space and file system:

      • Verify that there is enough free space on the disk where the archive file is being saved.
      • Ensure the file system is not mounted as read-only.
      • Check for any file locks or open handles on the archive file.
    2. Verify archive file path and permissions:
