Siebel 7.8 Windows 2008 Server

All,
I am trying to install Siebel 7.8 on Windows 2008 server with SQL 2008 DB. I looked up the compatibility and it says something about Binary Compatibility Support:
[http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11886_01/V7/CORE/SRSP_78/SRSP78_ServerEnv3.html#wp1015753]
I installed the Siebel Enterprise and Server and Database Server. However, it gave me no option to choose/install the required Siebel components.
When I install Siebel Web Server, I get an error:
unable to launch "E:\sea78SWEApp\bin\metabaseedit.exe "E:\sea78SWEApp\bin\ENU\eapps.mtb"" error code: "-2147221164"
and nothing gets created in IIS.
Please help!!

I can speak from personal experience.
I recently setup Siebel 7.8 on SQL 2008 R2 in our test environment. Everything works well with the database.
You can run siebel 7.8 without any issue, you don't need the 7.8.2 update, but I do recommend it for a production system
When you go to install siebel, you will have to run setup.exe with the compatibility mode setting of "Windows 2003 sp1"
Use the SNAC, MS Sql 2005 ODBC client on you application server and gateway. The native sql 2008 client / driver will NOT work with siebel.
As Always, siebel is 32-bit and requires the 32-bit version of server 2008 for the gateway and application server.
IE 8 will need to run in compatibility mode, in order to work with the we application.
Other than that,
Its identical to a windows 2003 installation :)

  • Error connecting to the SAP SRV on Windows 2008 Server platform

    Hi All
    We have a problem with one of our clients they bought a new sbs windows server 2008 and we loaded sql 2005 and sap b1 SP01 PL07.
    When we did the SBO install we experience connection issues and we created odbc connection on the server using named pipes and tcp/ip (used both server name and Ip address).
    We also configured the server in configuration manager and we managed to login and solved the slow system connection issue. We also created odbc connection on the client machines. (Machine are on a workgroup and users have administration access on all machines),we also installed native client on all machines.
    After the first batch of client installs we managed to have connection, they were other computers which were left out during the first client install and now the client want to do the remaining machines connected to SBO. On every machine that we install now we get the same error :-
    *Connection failed:
    SQLState:'08001'

    Hi Eric,
    yes we are using Windows 2008 SBS for the SAP EHP4 FOR SAP ERP 6.0/NW7.01 installation.
    we tried to create the key but it says access is denied.
    Actual thing is we got the server with Windows 2008 server 64 bit SBS (standard FE) with Domain Controller (DC) configuration.
    We have removed the DC using dcpromo to convert into Wokgroup and tried the SAP installation.
    I hope you got the idea and please let me know any further suggestions or it is the problem with the license.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Prabhu Reddy.

  • Bank Statement management in SAP B1 on a VMWare Windows 2008 server

    Hi everybody,
    One of our customer is using a VMWare Windows 2008 server with SAP B1.
    Actual version of Business One is SBO 2007A PL 00 PL 15 (SQL Server 2005).
    Since the installation of this server using VMWare, we encouter problems using the SAP B1 Integration Platform for the process of the bank statements.
    Everything including bank statements transfer was working very fine on a "real" server before new implementation.
    When trying to open the Integration Platform Control Center on the server, we now receive the following message regarding JAVA.
    "JAVA Virtual Machine Launcher : could not find the main class : program will exit."
    JAVA is well installed on the VMWare server.
    We have searched for a solution on the Web and it seems that JAVA and VMWare are not compatible. Does anybody have any information about that ?
    Does anybody already have this problem with Integration Platfom on VMWare server ?
    Is there a solution to our problem ?
    Thanks for all your contributions.
    Best regards.
    Michel

    Hi Michel,
    First of all, your PL is too low.  AFAIK, the first supported PL for 2007A SP00 is PL30.  You may upgrade your PL first to see if that is a bug or not.
    Thanks,

  • Crystal Reports 2011 not working in windows 2008 server CITRIX

    Hi All,
    We are using  Crystal reports 2011 in windows 2008 server which is CITRIX farm., having crystal reports 2011 runtime in it..
    We are using .net applicationton to run the reports.
    The crystal reports parameter popup is getting opened. But the calendar icon is not fuctioning ..clicking on the calendar control no pop up appears. no error too..
    OK button is not responding. Cancel button too.
    Can you please help us why we are facing this issue in CITRIX only. When we are using the same version in desktop, Crystal report is working fine.
    Please feel free to ask if required any more details about my problem.
    Regards,
    Venkat.K

    Ido's idea is excellent, only addition I'd like to make is the following:
    You are trying to run a .NET app. However, CR 2011 does not install any SDKs. So, the directory specified by Ido is not correct. Assuming that by CR 2011 you actually mean "SAP Crystal Reports, Developer Version for Visual Studio .NET", then the directory would be:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\Crystal Reports 2011\crystalreportviewers\prompting
    If that does not help, use Process Monitor and see what the logs tell you (look for Access Denied messages).

  • Windows 2008 Server and HP Color LaserJet 2605dn Driver Issue when Sharing Printer

    I have a HP Color LaserJet 2605dn printer that I need to setup on a Windows 2008 server.  I need the server to act as a Print server, but I have been unable to get any drivers to load other than the 64 Bit Universal drivers.  Because most of the company uses XP (32 and 64 bit), I also need to load those drivers under additional drivers; however, I have been unable to load them, when I point to the INF file (any of the 10 that unzip from the driver package), it says it is not for this printer.  I have even tried the generic 32 bit PS and it says the same thing.  Any ideas on what I am doing incorrectly or where to get the drivers that I need?
    Thanks,
    Gary

    Hello, I have the same problem. For the 2605 Printer is only the universal print driver available. Is seems that HP is to be lazy about making new 2008 driver.

  • Cant add a printer in Windows 2008 Server printer server HP LaserJet P1606dn

    Hello,
    I am trying to install a HP LaserJet P1606dn printer in a Windows 2008 Server Virtual machine.
    The printer is connected to the corporate network and I am able to do ping from my desktop to the printer.
    Then I follow this steps.
    1.- Install the driver application for W2008 Server.
    2.- Add printer in W2008 Printer Server.
    3.-Select "add a local or network printer" as an administrator.
    4.- Choose network printer
    5.-Create a new port --> Standard TCP/IP Port
    6.- Fill the host name ---> ("printer1") or IP address --> (XX.XXX.XX.13)  I have tried the both options separately but with no result. And fill the port name
    7.-At this stage . W2008 Server tells me that " the device is not found on the network" . Be sure that: .....
     So, in select device type, I select  "Standard" and "Generic Network Card"  and click on Next
    8.- Install printer driver  -> I select the proper driver HP LaserJet 1606dn
    9.- Install the printer driver ---> use the driver that is currently installed (recommend)
    10.- Type printer name --> "printer1"
    11.-Share printer name ---> "printer1"
    Here, begins the problem. Trying to print a test page, It says me that  "A test page has been sent to your printer", I can see the document in the queue, but the printer page it isn`t thrown away outside.
    I dont explain myself why, I have done several trials, and I dont know what happens
    I would be very grateful if somebody could help me to solve this issue
    Many Thanks
    Robert

    Hi lespaul80,
     1st- check if you can connect to your printer on web interface(in IE: \\printer ip address
    and check under network setup  if subnet mask and  def. gateway setup
    also if you have DNS setup check it too
    check if you have SNMP options - desable it
    on server try ad printer by direct IP and try use upd drive(PCL6 or PS)
    Hope it help you

    I am an HP employee.

    Any suggestions?  Is this m/b not compatible with Win 2008 servers?

    Hmm... about what download link are you talking?
    The one in the download area here in SDN?
    If so, then this is not relevant for SAP customers as they should get all their software via DVD delivery or the Service Marketplace downloads!
    In the service marketplace download sections there are no restrictions given, since the Product Availability Matrix (https://service.sap.com/pam) contains all the release/support information.
    In general, the PAM is the one single place to check for supported versions.

  • Windows 2008 Server RC 2(64bit) ,Crystal Reports11.5 Compatbility Resolve?

    Our company is moving to Windows 2008 Server RC2 64bit OS platform to run our reports. Will Crystal Reports 11.5 run on this OS platform? Right now it does not. Is there a resolution?

    Actually it is supported, but because CR is a 32 bit app everything on the server must also be running in 32 bit modes. Other issue is CR XI R2 is past it's patch life cycle so if there are any issues we can't fix them. CR 2008 SP 3 should work fine as well as CR XI R2 SP 6, which does have Windows 7 support which is the same as Windows 2008 Server.
    Check the link out for more info on what is and how to.
    What is the actual problem you are having?

  • Windows 2008 Server crashed - How to find location of remote shared files that they used to access on remote web app?

    We have a client that was running windows 2008 server.  A previous IT person had setup their system, so we were walking into a situation where there were many unknowns.  Server was mainly handling emails only, and we were able to get their exchange
    database off and export PSTs to hosted exchange via microsoft.
    Everything went fine with that, however one user said that he used to access files on the server via the remote web app as he described.  He would go to the following url:
    https://mail.theirdomain.com/remote/menu.aspx#
    and he would use his login and then he would see several links to folders.  He could then click on those and see his desired files.  
    We were able to get the server booted again, however we could not find any of the files he described on it at all, leaving me to suspect that perhaps this remote link was accessing another PC.  
    We have the old server up and running, however the link above is no longer active because we have pointed the domain to the new hosted exchange server.  As I am still learning and my boss wanted me to research this on my own and figure out how to find
    out where these files are located.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  
    Just as a note I did try access mail.localhost.com/remote/menu.aspx# on the server but this did not work.  Is there any way in the IIS 7 management console to figure out where this was pointing to?  

    I figured it out - The server was using sharepoint to host these files.  I browsed localhost:987 and opened the sharepoint site locally on the server.  They had several documents to be exported, however when clicking on Open in Explorer it was
    giving an error that local client was not configured.  I installed Desktop Experience and after that was able to open it in Windows Explorer and copy all files off.
