SAP S/4HANA Error 5348: LxP Resource Initialization Failure
Description
This error indicates a problem during the initial setup or loading of a specific LxP resource within SAP S/4HANA. It often points to issues with language packages, localization settings, or related platform components failing to load correctly during a user session or system startup.
Error Message
ERR_TEXT_LA_LXP_RES_INIT_6
Known Causes
4 known causesMissing or Corrupt LxP Resource Files
Essential LxP (e.g., language pack) files required by the system are either not installed, incomplete, or have become corrupted.
Misconfigured Localization Settings
The system's localization or language settings are incorrectly configured, preventing the LxP resource from being found or loaded.
Insufficient User or System Privileges
The current user or the system process attempting to initialize the resource lacks the required access permissions.
Network Resource Unavailability
The system failed to access a required LxP resource due to network connectivity issues or the resource being temporarily offline.
Solutions
3 solutions available1. Verify and Restart LxP Services easy
Ensure the necessary LxP services are running and restart them if not.
1
Access the SAP S/4HANA system via SAP GUI.
2
Navigate to transaction SM51 to check the status of all application servers.
3
Identify the application server experiencing the LxP Resource Initialization Failure. Look for any abnormal status or stopped processes related to LxP.
4
If LxP services appear to be stopped or unhealthy, attempt to restart them. This can typically be done through the operating system level of the application server. Consult your system administrator or infrastructure team for the specific commands or tools used to manage SAP services on your OS (e.g., `sapcontrol` on Linux/Unix).
Example command (Linux/Unix) to restart a SAP instance:
sapcontrol -nr <InstanceNumber> -function RestartInstance5
After restarting, monitor SM51 and relevant system logs (e.g., SM21, ST11) for any recurrence of error 5348.
2. Check System Resources and Configuration medium
Ensure sufficient system resources and correct configuration for LxP.
1
Investigate the operating system level of the affected application server for resource constraints. This includes checking CPU utilization, memory usage, and available disk space. High resource consumption by other processes could impact LxP initialization.
On Linux/Unix, use commands like 'top', 'htop', 'free -m', 'df -h'.2
Examine the SAP system profile parameters related to LxP. Transaction RZ10 can be used to view and modify profile parameters. Look for parameters like 'rdisp/max_syslog_per_sec' or other memory-related parameters that might be too low for LxP's requirements.
Navigate to RZ10 -> Profile -> Read. Select the instance profile or default profile and review parameters.3
Consult SAP Notes and S/4HANA documentation for recommended profile parameter values for LxP based on your system's size and workload. Adjust parameters cautiously and restart the instance after making changes.
4
Verify that the necessary network connectivity exists between the application server and any external systems or components that LxP relies on. Firewalls or network misconfigurations can prevent resource initialization.
3. Analyze System and Dump Files advanced
Deep dive into system logs and dumps for root cause analysis.
1
Access transaction ST22 in SAP GUI to check for any short dumps that occurred around the time of the error 5348. Short dumps often provide detailed information about the cause of the failure.
2
Review the system log (SM21) for any related error messages or warnings that precede or coincide with the LxP Resource Initialization Failure. Look for entries with high severity.
3
Examine the developer traces (ST11) for the affected application server. These traces can offer more granular details about the execution flow and potential points of failure within the LxP components.
4
If the analysis of dumps and traces points to a specific SAP Note or known issue, apply the relevant correction or workaround. If the cause remains unclear, raise a ticket with SAP Support, providing all collected logs and dump information.
