Troubleshooting and Limitations – SAP ABAP Discovery

  • Problem: The SAP discovery fails and a Java message is displayed:

    This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found.
    

    Solution: Two .dll files are missing. For the solution, read Note #684106 in https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=012003146900000245872003.

  • Problem: The SAP ABAP discovery job fails with error "SAP drivers are missing", even if SAP Java Connector drivers are installed.

    Solution 1: The Discovery Probe is trying by default to connect using JCo 3 drivers, but these drivers are not installed. Therefore, install JCo 3.x drivers.

    Solution 2: The Discovery Probe is trying by default to connect using JCo 3 drivers, but the SAP system does not support JCo 3. For the solution, go to Data Flow Probe Setup and right-click on the required permission in SAP Protocol. Select Edit using previous interface, change JCo version to 2.x, even if it is already selected, and save the permission.

  • Problem: You experience difficulties in loading the SAP JCo dll files.

    Solution: Check you have the latest version of the Microsoft Visual Studio C/C++ runtime redistributable package installed.
