Can't apply patch level 14 to installation server
I'm trying to apply patch level 14 to the installation server using the nwsapsetupadmin tool. I have installed previous patches with no problem, and I have just installed the Business Explorer patch with no problem. But patch 14 for SAP GUI 7.10 fails.
I click Patch Server.
I select the patch. (gui710_14-10002995.exe)
It extracts and validates the patch.
I click Next to apply the patch.
I see a splash screen and a black cmd window appears for a split second.
Then nothing. Here I should see a progress bar while the patch installs.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Tom
Hello ALL...
for the reason you must have a look in the NWSAPSETUPADMIN.log...
Or you open an OSS MESSAGE in BC-FES-INS and attach there the log files from
your installation server.
Then i can have al ook at this and can support you.
A possible reason is that the patch is already installed on the server...
Or an exception is raised in the .NET framework...
All is possible, but it is very hard to analyse without the logfiles.
Best Regards, Sven

Hi,

This will be my requirement. We have around 6000 terminals, some of terminals giving short dump in server due to non applying of latest GUI patch in the presentation server, requirement is to find what will be patch level of presentation server from application server.
I like to know whether it is possible to find what will be patch level applied in the
presentation server from Application server.
Thanks

Patch level of installation?
What is an easy way to find the current patch level of an existing installation of Business Objects/Crystal Reports Server?
I can see the build information in the CMC but how does that relate to patch level???
Thanks for any tips.HI Richard,
We can find the version details of Business Objects XI from Central configuration manager(CCM):
XI R2 original (Base product) -> 11.5.0.313
XI R2 + SP1 -> 11.5.3.417
XI R2 + SP2 -> 11.5.8.826
XI R2 + SP3 -> 11.5.9.1076
The above mentioned service packs versions can be found in the following path:
<Installation Directory>/Program Files/Business Objects/Business Objects Enterprise11.5/Win 32_X86/ actormgt.dll
-- Right click on actormgt.dll
-- Click on properties
-- Click on version -> Check File version.
For your information, if you need to find out any service packs,MHF/CHF and fix packs installed, check them in Add/Remove programs.
Hope the information helps.

GUI 7.20 patch install from Installation server causes PC to always reboot
Hi All
Each time i patch my Installation server I have an issue. Yesterday i downloaded PL8 for GUI 7.20, patched my server.
My workstation for the notfication of an udate, so i clicked YES install, system reboots and installs. ALL WORKS!!
But if a user does not click yes to update, ignores the message. The patch gets installed later on its own and reboots the desktop but it just cycles restarts. The PC will boot up until it gets to the login screen, then restarts, will do this for hours straight!!
Its happen to me the last 3 patches. The fix i've been doing is booting to safe mode, removing the GUI and then reinstalling and all works fine.
Like i said, people who are notified of updates and click YES are ok, its all the others where the GUI self installs the issue arises.
Any tips? I currently have a PC on my desk doing it, i would like a work around instead of remove/reinstall of GUI.
Edited by: Joshua Lacroix on Sep 14, 2011 9:14 PMNwSapSetupEngine.dll: 8.6.1.62
NwSapSetupATLCommon.dll: 8.6.1.62
NwSapSetupUi.dll: 8.6.1.62
NwSapFeiUt.dll: 8.6.1.62
And i patched my server with Patch 8 and my Gui is the following
MAIN MODULE INFORMATION:
saplogon.exe
SAP Logon for Windows
720 Final Release
7200.3.8.1067
1271051
And thats patch 8? So why the heck isnt the files properly coming down?
I also checked the file version on my installation server is its the same 8.6.1.62, yet i have patch level 8 running.
Let me try to reinstall patch 8 on the install server
SO the install server complained that no new patches were found and again the main screen tells me Patch level 8 in the install server.
Is their a hot fix to PL 8? Maybe thats what im missing?

How can I apply patch 6728000?
I have to upgrade EBS to 12.0.6, so I have to apply the patch 6728000 which comes splitted in 4 files. How can I apply a patch that comes in this way?
I have just applied patches that comes in 1 file.
Thanks in advance
Edited by: user626152 on 09-mar-2009 10:38Hi,
You just need to download all the patch parts in one directory and extract it there. You should have one directory which contains all the patch files in one place (as any other patch).
Make sure you follow all the steps in the following note when applying this patch.

Applying Patches to WebLogic Server 9.2
Can anyone help me out here.
I have an AIX platform (5.3) and have WebLogic 9.2 installed and want to apply the latest patches. However when I try to use the bsu command it obviously wants to run up the GUI, which we do not have access to due to an X windows server not running.
So therefore does anyone know how the patches can be applied. When loading WebLogic Server from start you can obviously use the java -jar filename -mode=console. Is there not anything like this to install patches. Since the machines are behind a firewall and are secure then I am unable to load anything like Exceed or Cygwin.Simon Kearn <> wrote:

If you don't have access to the internet or can't use a gui, contact BEA
support which will send you the patch.
Then put this pach in the patch directory.
Note: You can download the patch on a windows workstation, and copy that jar
to the aix.

SAPGUI 7.10 Installation Server Patching Problem
Hello,
A while back I was having a problem with patching a SAPGUI 710 installation server. A suggestion from the forum was that the version of the SAP Download Manager I was using could be corrupting the patch. So I downloaded and installed the latest SAP Download Manager, downloaded the GUI patch and was then able to apply the GUI patch to the Installation Server. Now I am seeing the same sort of problem with trying to apply the recently released BI and BW patches to the 710 installation server. When I run the SAPSetupAdmin.exe tool, select "Patch Server", browse to the patch and select "Next" to apply the patch, nothing happens. I reinstalled the latest Download Manager, but no luck.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Tom GranthamHi All,
I opened up an OSS message with SAP. The response is below. Changing the extension from EXE to exe fixed the problem.

Dear Mr. Grantham,
There have been rare reports of the latest download manager not
resolving the issue. I have just been updated from a development supportcolleague there is a small issue with the patch extensions which
prohibits NwSapSetupAdmin from applying the patches.
With the patches that you have currently downloaded could you try
renaming the extension to lower case only please (.EXE to .exe) and thenapply the patches.
If the patches still cannot be applied then could you kindly try
downloading and applying the patches for BW & BI from the SAPmats links
below:

SAPGUI & SAP Installation Server
Hi experts,
Currently we build a front end package (single installation) then use SMS to push it out to every computer globally. But recently the packages are getting too big to use SMS.
So we consider the SAP Installation Server as our solution on this issue. But still some questions/concerns here need to give your help- who has used the SAP Installation Server already.
1. Do we need some additional hardware requirements for this installation server? In my simple mind, it's just a software which can be running on Windows server.
2. Do we need licensing considerations for this - SAP Installation Server?
3. I have looked over the SAP installation Server guide, seems we don't need to do any maintenance of this. correct?
4. The last question also it's the important one. . How does the software delivery for SAPGUI work with SAP Installation Servers that may be decentralized around the globe? We are a global company, so it's impossible that just set up one installation server in headquarters.
Please any experts who has the similar experience give me the answer.
Best regards,
MimiGood morning, Mimi - We use SMS in combination with the SAP Frontend Installation Server. I will first answer your questions and then explain what we do.
1. You do not necessarily need a dedicated server strictly for the installation server. You should not install multiple versions of the SAPGui on the same server. For instance, if you have both SAPGui 6.40 and SAPGui 7.10, you would want to use 2 separate servers as the installation servers.
2. There is no additional licensing needed for a SAPGui installation server.
3. The only maintenance required is the application of SAP frontend patches as they become available. The patches are applied to the installation server and then you run an update to get the patches from the installation server to the desktop.
4. It is definitely better that you would not try to have a single installation server for a company with offices around the globe. This will increase your administration somewhat because you will have to manage multiple installation servers (applying patches, etc.). The software distribution mechanism of the installation server is that there are two services, a distribution service and an installation service. These are provided so that a user with non-admin privileges can initiate an update to the SAPGui on their desktop. This is an important consideration, because by default, both SAPGui 6.40 and SAPGui 7.10, when installed on the desktop, have a registry key set that automatically checks when SAPGui is launched to see if the patch level on the desktop is the same as the patch level on the installation server. If not, it initiates an update of the desktop. If the user does not have admin privileges, the update will fail.
The process that we utilize here is that we have one installation server. We duplicate the share where the installation server is installed to all of our SMS servers. We have SMS servers in most of our remote offices, so that when the SAPGui is pushed out, the package is not pushed over the WAN, but instead over the local network in that location, thus making it much faster and reducing the load on the WAN. We then run the SAPSetup command and supply the GUID of the package that we want to push out. We chose not to use the distribution and installation services since we want to be able to make sure that each desktop has the same patch level of the SAPGui. So we used the following scripts to disable the automatic update check:
6.40:
<i>Engine.Context.Log.Write "Event 'SAPGUI640_NONADMIN_OnEndInstall' has been invoked"
Engine.Shell.SetRegValue "HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP\SAPSetup\SAPstart\AutoUpdate\SapLgPad.exe", "REG_SZ", "ForceOff"
Engine.Context.Log.Write "Event 'SAPGUI640_NONADMIN_OnEndInstall' has finished"</i>
7.10:
<i>NWEngine.Context.Log.Write "Event 'SAPGUI710_SAPGUI710_NONADMIN_OnEndInstall' has been invoked"
Engine.Shell.SetRegValue "HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP\SAPSetup\SapStart\AutoUpdate\SapLogon.exe\UpdateMode", "REG_SZ", "ForceOff"
Engine.Shell.SetRegValue "HKLM\SOFTWARE\SAP\SAPSetup\SapStart\AutoUpdate\SapLgPad.exe\UpdateMode", "REG_SZ", "ForceOff"
NWEngine.Context.Log.Write "Event 'SAPGUI710_SAPGUI710_NONADMIN_OnEndInstall' has finished"</i>
We have found this to be a very manageable setup.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need more information. -

Hi All,
Currently we are on SPS 14 (Patch #7) for Java and Patch #3 for KMC. How to look for this info from portal? Now we are planning to apply SP stack 16. This will push up the current patch levels. Is there any way we can find the patch level info for SPS16?
Please suggest.
Regards,
Subashini.Hi Subhasini,
If you are using the EP in Netweaver 2004s or later, The portal version page under System Administration -> Support does not exist anymore.
Solution:
For finding out the version of installed products, launch the default page of the Web AS (http://<host>:<port>) and navigate to the "System Information" page. This page shows a table called "Software Components". For displaying the versions of all installed software and development components, click on the link "all components" in the upper right corner of this table.

Laksh.
