System Response

After the message, the system continues processing.


How to fix this error?

Check whether ther should have been any trace records at all.
If trace records must exist, call transaction ST05 - "Performance
Analysis" on the initial screen - enter the OK code "CLOSE", and choose
"Enter".
Then try displaying the performance trace again. If this is not
possible, even after a new recording of the trace, contact the
adminsitrator responsible.

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



Procedure for System Administrators

Create a new trace file using transaction ST01. To do this, enter
"ADMIN" in the OK Code. After choosing "Enter", the system displays the
"Parameters of the SAP Trace" screen, where you should choose the
"Change" pushbutton to create a new trace file.
Alternatively, you can delete the trace files listed on this screen
using operating system resources.
