1739089 - Export of transport request finishes with return code 14 or Import finishes with exit code 255

There are two different cases:

• The export of a transport request finishes with return code 14.

In the "Main Export" log file you can find different errors, for example:

  ######################################
  Main export
  Transport request   : <SID>K<nnnnnn>
  System              : <SID>
  tp path             : tp
  Version and release: xxx.xx.xx.xxx

  R3trans.exe version x.xx (release xxx - dd.mm.yy - hh:mm:ss).
  unicode enabled version
  ===============================================

 ....
  Incomplete log ==> R3trans terminated for unknown reasons
  Incorrect export. Request not imported.
  Main export
  End date and time : <DateTime>
  Ended with return code:  ===> 14 <===
  ######################################

As mentioned above, you can find different errors in the log file, but it always ends with the return code 14:

Ended with return code:  ===> 14 <===

• The import of a transport request finishes with return code 255.

The Import log finishes with the following message:

  Main import
  End date and time : <DateTime>
  Ended with return code:  ===> 255 <===
