Hi all
Just want to share what was wrong in my case (got exactly this issue). I experienced this error when performing a pre-requisite step for upgrading. I needed to configure SSFS in our Q system (that is a copy from production). And I made a mistake in the configuration of SSFS leading to this issue.
Here is what I did wrong (in bold) - this is my BW test system
On O/S level for the SSFS part:
#vi .sapenv_SID.sh
export RSEC_SSFS_DATAPATH=/usr/sap/BAQ/SYS/global/security/rsecssfs/data
export RSEC_SSFS_KEYPATH=/usr/sap/BAQ/SYS/global/security/rsecssfs/key
rsdb_ssfs_connect=1; export rsdb_ssfs_connect
Then executed as SIDadm
rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/DEFAULT_DB_USER SAPBAQ -plain
rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/DEFAULT_DB_PASSWORD [my_password]
And this gave me this exact issue since I did not pay attention to that the schema owner is in fact SAPBAP (since the systemcopy).
Anyway, I solved it by re-executing:
rsecssfx put DB_CONNECT/DEFAULT_DB_USER SAPBAP -plain
R3trans now gives me [0000] and SAP instance started just fine.
Maybe this helps someone other :
Cheers
Oh, by the way, R3trans error in specifc I got was:
baqadm> R3trans -d
