user action newreleasejobs is not supported

[matt1as]

When I try to release a task I get the following error. We're on 7.50 sp 11.

Can you release tasks from ADT Eclipse? If so, can you send me the HTTP logs, please?

[matt1as]

Yes, I can release from ADT, however I see that it opens SAP GUI in the background. Here's the HTTP log

The only thing I can do here is to employ PyRFC and call RFC FunctionModules for releasing transpors. But that would mean that you would have to get the C RFC SDK libraries installed on your machine.

Do you like such a solution?

[matt1as]

Sorry for the late reply, holidays are coming. Is it a versioning issue, or why does it work for you and not on my machine?

[jfilak]

I would say that's because your ADT ABAP back-end is not the latest version. I tested sapcli with 751, 752 and 753.

[jfilak]

I can release transport from Eclipse directly without the need to jump into SAPGUI.

[matt1as]

Then I think it makes more sense to add a minimum requirement on the ADT backend instead of introducing another dependency.
