SAP Note 642464 - Profile file for the program sapevt

Component : Background Processing -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/642464 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
The SAP Note explains that issues with the sapevt program's inability to initiate batch events are often due to the absence of essential parameters defining the message server host (mshost) and service name (msserv). It refers to settings in the default profile, `default.pfl`, which should ideally contain these parameters if they are not explicitly provided via the command line. For proper program functionality, users should either specify these parameters directly or ensure their presence in the default profile located at system-specific paths noted within the document. Additionally, it emphasizes the sensitivity of path and file names, particularly in cluster environments, and suggests always verifying the correct profile path as per DIR_PROFILE in transaction AL11.
