How To Fix XT450 - Transport control program not configured

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: XT - Transport Management System

• Message number: 450

• Message text: Transport control program not configured

What causes this issue?

The TMS configuration check discovered that the management of the
transport profile for the transport control program has not yet been
included in the TMS configuration.
You can manage the transport profile in TMS only as of SAP Release 4.5A.
The TMS for this system was probably configured in an older release.

System Response

The transport control program is currently using the profile <LS>TPPARAM
</> in the transport subdirectory <LS>bin</>. The Transport Management
System does not control the file TPPARAM. This means that the
consistency of the transport domain configuration of TMS cannot be
guaranteed.

How to fix this error?

Configure the transport control program with TMS.
For instructions and information on configuring the transport control
program (for example, after an upgrade to 4.5A), refer to the SAP
Library under <LS>BC - Basis Components -> BC - Transport Management
System -> Configuring Transport Control Program Afterwards</>.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
