Update sneak preview Java Edition to SP13 or SP14?

Has anyone updated the sneak preview Java Edition (incl. EP 6) to SP13 or 14?
I have trouble installing SP13 (The installation of the Sneak Preview was smooth.).
Here is what I have downloaded and did. I found 4 SP groups for EP6 on Sap services:
- CM+Collaboration
- IGS (where SP12 seems to be the highest version)
- J2EE engine
- Portal platform
I have started with the update of the J2EE engine to SP13.
Unfortunately it hangs at step 17 deploy online.
Do I do something wrong here?
Any hints are appreciated.
Regards F.

Hi Frank,
I updated the WAS preview to SP13 and it was a total mess and 4 week loss of lifetime. Never tried to do it with the portal demo though.
If the sdm hangs try the following:
- wait 5 min, then click retry
- if it happens again wait 5 min, then click retry
- if it happens again wait 5 min, then click retry
- if it happens again wait 5 min, then click retry
(no joke)
If this fails it will be most likely that your DB has run out of log space. The SAP system usually honors that with freezing without any apparent reason or log output. A colleague of mine has escalated this more than one week to SAP Support and event they didn't figure it out.
Try stopping the install and the sap system. When the sdm process keeps hanging and the DB will not shut down you are 99% likely to have the log problem. Get the win mysql DB manager, login to your db (default pw: control/control) and go to configuration->log volumes. Set the log strategy to "overwrite" (on test systems) restart and it should work.
Regards,
Peter

  • Sneak Preview ABAP Edition just released

    The Sneak Preview: ABAP Edition is now available. Kathy just announced it in the forum: Sneak Preview Update: ABAP Edition just released!!
    The link to the Sneak Preview stays the same: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/uuid/cfc19866-0401-0010-35b2-dc8158247fb6
    Basically this is a "slim" or "mini" ABAP installation with a compressed database component, comparable to the "slim" Java version. It's supposed to run with a minimum of 1GB but 2GB RAM is recommended.
    Feedback on this edition, like the others, should go in the SDN Code Sample/Download forum (Software Downloads).
    Cheers,
    Marilyn

    It would be really awesome to see the community weigh in on their experiences with this installation.
    I'm going to suggest that we find a way to reward participants for doing a good job of sharing and documenting their experiences with the installation.
    One idea would be to give a "double point" allocation.
    That means that good content contribution (articles, blogs, detailed forum posts in a separate marked thread) that articulates the substance of what a downloader does in the course of the new ABAP Sneak Preview installation: tips and tricks, installation guide details, observations and detailed opinions,  will be <u>doubly rewarded</u>.
    Hey, this is a very time consuming activity, as I am experiencing myself at present.
    Thoughts?

  • NW2004s Sneak Preview Java install never starts up

    I've installed NW2004s Sneak Preview Java on Windows XP Media Centre Edition with 2Gb RAM and 8Gb swapfile but the server never finished starting up properly.
    I've tried with JSDK 1.4.2_09, _11, _12 and with the recommended Sun JDK parameters but always the same problem.
    The MMC reports the server has started up completely, with all green icons, but when I open a browser and point at http://localhost:50100/irj or anything else I get a 503 Service Unavailable or 503 The Application Is Currently Stopped errors.
    The CPU usage of the J2E service processes keep chugging away at about 70% CPU utilisation, and I left it going for 24hrs but it never finishes.
    There dont seem to be any errors in the logs that indicate why it doesnt finish starting up.
    Has anyone managed to do an install on XP Media Centre Edition, or any version of XP?
    Any suggestions?
    Steve

    Rich,
    Thanks for the reply. I still get the same problem. MMC reports SDM, Server0 and Dispatcher all running, and  http://localhost:50100/index.html gives:
    503   Service Unavailable SAP J2EE Engine/7.00 
    Cannot process a request for dynamic resources.
    Details:   Web Container service is currently unavailable.
    fter another 10 mins or so the error message is:
    503   Service Unavailable   SAP J2EE Engine/7.00 
    Application stopped.
    Details:   You have requested an application that is currently stopped
    There are now a few hundred error messages in defaulttrace, which indicate 70 services failed, although it doesnt explain why. This is the first error in defaultTrace while starting:

  • NW Sneak Preview Java SP16

    Hi,
    I am new to SAP NetWeaver. I want to learn EP and when  NW Sneak Preview Java SP16 is available for download, I want to install it.
    If all the other hardware requirements are met, can NW Sneak Preview Java SP16 be installed on an AMD 2.6 Ghz machine?
    Does NW Sneak Preview Java slim version has EP and WebDynpro components?
    Thank you.
    Regards
    Ayub.

    I don't see why the slim edition wouldn't run on the AMD. 
    The NW Sneak Preview Java slim version does not include EP.  It includes the j2ee engine and NWDS.  This is all you need in order to start developing WebDynpro Java applications.

  • NW04s full version Sneak Preview (java): License check failed

    I've seen similar posts, but not exactly the same thing.
    I installed the Sneak Preview Full Edition (Java), and finally installed it today.  It shuts down after 30 minutes with an error from jcontrol.exe - the license check has failed.
    It's not an expired license (I just downloaded it this week, and installed it today).
    I've seen several posts related to using the Visual Administrator to manipulate licenses, but I haven't seen how to start this tool - there are no instructions I've found that are any more detailed than "start the Visual Administrator".
    I feel like I'm almost getting it.  Can anybody provide me that missing link?

    Finally got it going properly.
    I adjusted my system clock to fall between the licence dates found in Visual Administrator and restarted the system.
    It didn't work.
    I uninstalled the sneak preview edition,
    Set the system clock to 15/Dec/2005,
    Reinstalled the the sneak preview edition.
    It did worked this time.
    I was surprised by the licence dates in Visual Administrator.This time that the start date was set properly from 15/Dec/2005 to expire on 15/Mar/2006.
    However in the first installation,the licence dates are
    from Nov/05 to May/06 which is 6 months.
    This time i got the licence from Dec/05 to Mar/06 which is 3 months.
    I observed 2 differences between these 2 installations.
    1) After my first installation, while the jcontrol.exe is still starting some processes, I tried to login to VA couple of times unsuccessfully. In my next attempt to login to VA, it asked me to change my password and I did change it from abcd1234 to something else.
    When I changed my password, may be jControl.exe didn't pick it up instantly and tried to use some services using the old password which might have caused the problem.
    2) In my second installation, I changed my system date to 15/Dec/2005.So.. to prevent any sort of automatic date synchronization, I've disconnected the internet connection.
    This time the installation date was taken into consideration by the installer to create the licence.
    It is still a mystery to me why the licence date was set to some old dates in my first install.

  • Note: Sneak Preview Java SP15 temp. removed

    Hi community,
    I removed NW Sneak Preview Java SP15 temporarely because of a bug. It contained next to SP15 WebAS, SP14 components (EP) as well, which led to confusion which I didnt expect. So i will replace it as soon as possible (1 week) with SP16 full java stack (without XI).
    Sorry for the inconvinience,
    Oliver

    Has there been any update yet?  Been a week.

  • Sneak Preview Slim Edition and SLD

    Hi,
    I've installed the Web AS Sneak Preview Slim Edition  (corresponding to SP11) that is available at SDN. But when I tried to start the SLD accessing http://localhost:50000/sld the message "resource does not exist" appeared. The url above is definitely correct -  other administration frontends, e.g. useradmin, are reachable. Seems that SLD or at least SLD administration is not included in the slim edition. Is that true?  And if so, is there any possibility to update the missing parts?
    Thanks
    Barbara

    Hi,
    Gregor, thanks for your reply. As a consequence of the Sneak Preview Slim Edition limitation concerning SLD, I tried to install a Web AS 6.40 SR1 installation, downloaded from service marketplace. Things started wonderful, but eventually, in step 21 out of 22, the J2EE engine failed to start. I found this error message in startJ2e.log:
    running C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\exe/sapstart.exe name=J2E nr=00 SAPDIAHOST=blnn0050 -wait
    SAPSTART finished successfully on blnn0050_J2E_00, but at least one process doesn't run correctly:
    C:\usr\sap\J2E\JC00\exe/sapstart.exe=>sapparam(1c): No Profile used.
    Has anyone an idea how to overcome this failure? Which profile is missing and how to get it? Manual start using MMC does not help.
    Thanks,
    Barbara

  • Installing WAS Preview Java Edition over top of Slim Edition

    Hi,
    After some initial difficulties we were able to successfully install the Slim Edition Preview from a DVD provided by SAP.
    We would now like the Java Edition Preview which includes Enterprise Portal. Is possible to install the Java edition over the top or do we need to uninstall Slim edition first? Is there any way to just install EP without interfering with our stable J2EE server?
    Thanks

  • Sneak Preview Java 04s : what to do with it?

    Hi everyone,
    I downloaded and installed Sneak Preview 04s full Java edition. I'm a BW consultant, not too experience with Portal, and I can't fin out what to do with this installation. I thought this Java edition would also give me access to an classic BW application server with all regular BI screens like RSA1 etc... but i'm not able to find that.
    Can you please shred some light on what you guys achieved to do with Java editions, if classic BI screens are accessible through Portal or if I should rather go to ABAP edition of sneak preview?
    thanks!

    Finally found answers in the forum.

  • Sneak Preview Slim Edition

    Does this edition contain Enterprise portal ,KM and Coll.Please reply.Thanks.

    Hi Pankaj,
    The Slim edition does not contain EP, KM & Collaboration. It contains the SAP Web AS and NetWeaver Developer Studio and is really - as it's name implies - kind of a NetWeaver "lite" version with much smaller download file and less memory consumption.
    However, the Java edition contains these additional components you mentione - and, I'm happy to report, it's back online again!
    Check it out with this link (make sure you're logged in):
