Summary :
An issue arises when attempting to execute an external program on a remote host via transaction SM49, resulting in a PROGRAM_START_ERROR and CPIC error owing to non-operation of SAP application servers on the remote host. The failure may link to authorization issues or inappropriate login shell configurations for the gateway user. Solutions involve ensuring the path of the sapxpg executable is included in the gateway user's PATH or modifying the user's shell environment setup. Specific instructions include adjusting the gateway user's login shell, setting up an independent gateway, or modifying environment variables and script setups to correctly locate and execute sapxpg.
