Error Message : The script abort with an error message: ############## Missing or invalid -F option. ##############
Patch level detected:Manager for SAP 4.4.1 Product Version: Dollar.Universe 5.6.0 FX25010
Description :With the new RFCSDK (which seems to be installed with SAP System v7.2) the Manager can't use the script 'startrfc_download_zuxts' because the SAP 'startrfc' command calls in our script has changed.
The new 'startrfc' command options are :
Usage: startrfc [options]
Options: -h SAP application server to connect to -s system number of the target SAP system -u user -p password -c client -l logon language -D destination defined in RFC config file sapnwrfc.ini -F function module to be called, only EDI_DATA_INCOMING or EDI_STATUS_INCOMING is supported -E PATHNAME= path, including file name, to EDI data file or status file, with maximum length of 100 charachters -E PORT= port name of the ALE/EDI interface with maximum length of 10 charachters -t enable RFC trace -help or -? display this help page -v display the version of the NWRFC library and the version of the compiler used by SAP to build this program -i connect to the target system and display the system info
Cause
Cause type: Defect Root Cause: The problem comes with the '-F' option. In our 'startrfc_download_zuxts' script, we're using the '-F' flag with our function ' Z_UX_F_ZUXTS_DOWNLOAD', but with the new 'startrfc' command, only EDI_DATA_INCOMING or EDI_STATUS_INCOMING function is supported.
