    SAP Error Message: WXP458

    Message Text:
    && was deleted from && subtrees


    1. Cause

    The message WXP458 typically occurs in the context of SAP Web Dynpro or SAP Workflow when an object (such as a node, component, or element) is deleted from one or more subtrees in the application repository or configuration.

    • The placeholders && are replaced at runtime with the actual object name and the number of subtrees affected.
    • This message is informational and indicates that the system has automatically removed references to the deleted object from dependent subtrees.
    • It often appears during transport imports, repository cleanup, or when modifying Web Dynpro components or workflow definitions.

    Common scenarios causing WXP458:

    • Deleting a node or element that is used in multiple places (subtrees) within a Web Dynpro component.

    • Transporting objects where dependencies are cleaned up automatically.

    • Adjust references: If the deletion was accidental or causes issues, restore the object or adjust the dependent subtrees accordingly.
    • Transport management: When transporting objects, ensure that all dependent objects are included or properly handled to avoid inconsistencies.
    • System logs: Review system logs or transport logs for related warnings or errors that might indicate problems beyond this informational message.
