Solution

Referring to SAP Notes below,

  • 201199 – Cannot access file &
  • 2817694 – Cannot access file \sapmnt\trans\tmp\XXXXXX.

The problem can be caused by many different reasons. Three different (transport) directories which are defined by the following three parameters are the common basis for consideration:

  • DIR_TRANS
    • This is a parameter in the profile of the SAP system which describes the path to the customers transport directory.
  • DIR_PUT
    • This is a parameter in the profile of the SAP system which describes the path to the upgrade directory.
  • transdir
    • This is a parameter in the transport profile (TPPARAM) which indicates the path to the transport directory used by tp. Transport profiles are used both for customer transports and for upgrades.

In order to use tp for transporting without any errors of the above occuring, the following must be valid:

  • DIR_TRANS = transdir
  • DIR_PUT = transdir
    • Where “=” means that the values of both parameters point to the same directory (the same directory can have different names on different hosts.).

Make sure that all three parameters DIR_TRANS, DIR_PUT and transdir are maintained correctly. The transport profiles in your customer transport directory should always be maintained in a way that transdir = DIR_TRANS.

Also make sure that every application server can access to the transport directory maintained in DIR_TRANS (or DIR_PUT).
