BW Load Failed with Status Code 255

[Brian Zhang]

Hi All,
We are encountering an issue on the job having BW Load stage. The content from log file is as follows,

$ cat RFCServer_T4.2008_08_25.log

I have checked with SAP team on RFC connection at SAP BW level and it is working fine, but it would encounter this error when we initiated it from BW side and error message represented that "Error: connection closed(no data)" from Scheduler(Maintain InfoPackage) panel.

Pls help to have a look at this and guide me figure it out.
Thanks all in advance.

Regards
Brian.

Oh, there was another thing happened before the job was working fine, that was Basis team member did some changes on configuration (I'm not sure if it's the DSBWConnection.config or SourceSystems.config), but I did restart RFC Server Manager daemon on Ascential server to refresh anything changed to latest after I knew that.

Now, I suspect that if the BW Load job should be re-compiled again?

I would appreciate your help.
Regards
Brian.
