Error during DatabaseCopy using SAP tools for SQL Server (v7.12)

I'm trying to perform a system copy from PRD to QAS.  The database has been mounted to QAS via detach and attach method.  I did a DBCC on the database and everything looks OK.  I'm running SAPINST (SAP Tools for MSSQL) and selecting the Database Copy option.  The source database has a schema of DBO.  Both PRD and QAS are running SAP 4.7/Basis 620.  The target schema is QAS.  SAPINST fails in step 2 (Define Params) with:
"This service cannot be used for a system with SAP ABAP release 620"
Is this message misleading?  Has anyone receive this message before.
UPDATE:
I donwloaded the latest version of SAP Tools for MSSQL and now it failes during the execution phase on step, "Convert DB objects to new schema".
Here is the log:

  • SAP Tools for SQL Server issue

    Hi,
    I used SAP tools to upgrade the database after upgrading MS SQL Server 2000 to MS SQL Server 2005. In the middle of the process I got the following error:
    MDB-05053  Errors when executing sql command: <p nr="0"/>.
    sapinst.log and sapinst_dev.log shows this error first:
    FCO-00011  The step RunMAXConversion with step key |SAPMSSTOOLS|ind|ind|ind|ind|0|0|MssSysCopy|ind|ind|ind|ind|4|0|MssYukonUpg|ind|ind|ind|ind|5|0|RunMAXConversion was executed with status ERROR .
    Any idea ?
    George

    Hi,
    please open a command prompt, switch to the installation directory under Program Files and set the environment variable
    set SAPINST_MSS_LOG=0N
    Start the sapinst tool again from the same location from this command promt. Then a MSSLog.log is written during the run. Check the log for additional errors.

  • Using DB Link for SQL Server

    Hi All,
    When I query the SQL server table from Oracle using DB Link, it works fine for any table:
    select * from testtable@DBLINK test -- This statement works fine because I am giving * i.e. all columns
    But when I try to query specific columns like
    Select test.status from testtable@DBLINK test
    then it gives me error ORA-00904: "test.Status invalid Identifier", I can see this particular column when I query the testtable for all of the columns.
    I don't know what to do.
    Thanks

    You need to use quoted names. SQL Server data dictionary stores names in same case they were entered while Oracle in upper case. So when you issue
    Select test.status from testtable@DBLINK test Oracle parser will look for column STATUS while on SQL Server side it could be stored, for examle, as Status or status. Check column names on SQL Server side and use quoted names. Assuming column name is Status:
    Select test."Status" from testtable@DBLINK test SY.

  • Error during installation of SAP on win 2003 Server

    Hello All,
    I am trying to install SAP 4.6 on win 2003 server. The process of installation has completed for almost more than 9 hours. I am getting an error during "Database post processing". When I clicked "retry" the installation has stopped and restarted the system. I tried to start the SAP server which turns from Yellow to green. In my case, it turns to yellow and cannot proceed further.
    Also, is it necessary to stop the Oracle services till the end of the installtion?
    In addition, please send me Installation guide for the same to my mailid:
    [email protected]
    Please do let me know your inputs on how to resolve the issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Noor Basha

    -> which database are you on?
    -> sap 4.6 is rather old...think about installing supported releases such as 4.7 or erp2004/2005
    -> what were your guides/notes you referred to during the installation?

  • VersioningError when Using JDBC driver for SQL Server with RMI

    Hi,
    I wrote a simple class for inserting rows into a database. The database is SQL Server 2000, and I am using weblogic's mssqlserver4 driver. The class works fine, but when I try to export the class as a remote object (using Sun's RMI implementation, not Weblogic RMI), I get the following error:
    Exception in thread "main" weblogic.common.internal.VersioningError: No WebLogic packages defined in CLASSPATH at weblogic.common.internal.VersionInfo.<init>(VersionInfo.java:35) at weblogic.version.<clinit>(version.java:18)
    at weblogic.jdbc.common.internal.FileProxy.initFileHandles(FileProxy.java:30) at weblogic.jdbc.mssqlserver4.BaseConnection.prepareConnection(BaseConnection.java:215)

    Can anyone tell me why this happens? What is difference between using the driver standalone and using it with RMI? Does it have anything to do with the fact that I'm using Javasoft RMI and not Weblogic RMI? I'm pretty sure I have the classpaths set up correctly.

    Thanks,
    BoHi. Show me the whole stacktrace of the exception. The issue seems to be the driver licensing
    code, which is looking for the bea.license file, and not finding it. Have your code run a System command
    to find and print out the classpath it thinks is in effect. You will then see if the license file is there.

  • Use rptproj SSRS for SQL Server 2008R2 in VS 2010 (and/or VS 2012 better(

    In my company, I use VS 2008 and SQLServer 2008R2, and I have rptproj projects in VS 2008.
    The rptproj project has several rdl files.
    I would like use VS 2010 or VS 2012 with SSRS and SQLServer 2008R2.
    SSDT, which was introduced with SQL Server 2012. I suggest not possible migration rpt projects in VS 2008 to VS 2010 / VS 2012
    Any alternative solution to do it ?
    I have seen, but I'm confused it

    Iko says
    You can now use Visual Studio 2010 to edit .rtproj report projects and .rdl reports.
    You need VS10 SP1, then install the Data Tools for VS10, followed by the installation of SQL Server Express 2012 with Reporting Services and Data Tools.

    www.kiquenet.com/profesional

    Hi Kiquenet,
    According to your description, you installed VS 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2, and create Reporting Services projects. Now you want to use VS 2010 or VS 2012 to open and manage the reports.
    SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 supports versions of SQL Server 2012 or lower, we can directly download Microsoft SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 from
    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=36843, then select SQL Server Data Tools - Business Intelligence for Visual Studio 2012 and SQL Client Connectivity SDK as
    new shard features to install.
    We can open the projects in both Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2010. For local mode only (that is, when not connected to SQL Server), we won’t get the design-time experience for controls that are associated with the viewer in Visual Studio 2008, but
    the project will function correctly at runtime. If we add a feature that’s specific to Visual Studio 2012, the report schema is upgraded automatically and you can no longer open the project in Visual Studio 2008.
    If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

  • How to use evaluate function for sql server function

    Hi Team,
    We have imported a column(date dtat type) from SQL server cube . By default it imported as varchar,. We have three option in physical layer for this column(Varchar,Intiger,unknown)
    So we want to convert this column into date.can we use evaluate or there is any option to do that.?

    Hi,
    I am not sure your requirement. But how pass evaluate function obiee?
    syntax:- EVAULATE('your db function(%1,%2)', parameter list)
    here %1 and %2 are the no.of parameters (columns or may constant values) to be passed for the db-function
    if you have 3 parameters then you need to use %3 also.. means the columns to be passed.
    following exapmples are for ORACLE db,
    ex1: EVALUATE('upper(%1)', 'satya ranki reddy') gives the result as -> SATYA RANKI REDDY
    ex2: EVALUATE('upper(%1)', 'Markets.Region') here Markets.Region is column.
    you also can call the user-defined functions through evaulate
    EVALUATE('functioname(%1,%2), column1, column2)
    the above function has 2 parameters to be inputted
    Hope this help's
    Thanks

  • Monitoring/ tuning tool for sql server and os environment

    What is a good tool for monitoring/tuning OS and SQL layers.

    OS and SQL are different things, and I am not sure what you mean under layers.
    To further expand my question, what OS build, what SQL Server edition?
    All these have enormous impact on strategy.
    Then the question is for what? OLTP need one tuning, DW another.
    Monitoring is also a question of budget, how much allowed to spend?
    Secondly, this forum is not dedicated to these kinds of questions.

  • Using JSP & JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 on Red Hat

    I successfully have a .jsp app running on windows server 2000 using JDBC
    driver for SQL Server 2000. Which I installed in order to the following
    Red Hat:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/MSDN-FILES/027/001/779/install.htm
    I moved the .jsp app over to the Red Hat 9 server running Tomcat, while
    keeping the MS SQL 2000 on windows. The issue I have is setting up the
    JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000 on the Red Hat server.
    I created a folder called /usr/java/MSSQLdriver and unzipped the tar file with
    the driver for SQL Server 2000. And ran the install.ksh script.
    The /usr/java/MSSQLdriver/lib has the following files within it:
    msbase.jar, msutil.jar, & mssqlserver.jar
    I chmod 0777 each of the *.jar files.
    I then went into /etc/profile.d/tomcat.sh and adding the following:
    CLASSPATH=.;/opt/msSQLjdbc/lib/msbase.jar;/opt/msSQLjdbc/lib/msutil.jar;/opt/msSQLjdbc/lib/mssqlserver.jar
    Each time I login and pull up the termial I get the following error:
    bash: /opt/msSQLjdbc/lib/msbase.jar: cannot execute binary file
    bash: /opt/msSQLjdbc/lib/msutil.jar: cannot execute binary file
    bash: /opt/msSQLjdbc/lib/mssqlserver.jar: cannot execute binary file
    And can't connnect to the database within the .jsp app.
    Is there anyone out there using DBC driver for SQL Server 2000 on the Red Hat server?
    Michael

    Sorry, I needed to correct some information of where the drivers were installed.
    I created a folder called /usr/java/MSSQLdriver/new and untar the Microsoft file with the driver for SQL Server 2000. I ran the install.ksh script "sh install.ksh"
    installed the driver into the default directory "/opt/msSQLjdbc".
    The /opt/msSQLjdbc/lib has the following files within it:
    msbase.jar, msutil.jar, & mssqlserver.jar

  • Missing BI Data Tools in SQL Server 2014

    Hi All!
    I just doing the first steps in SSIS 2014 (RTM) after I played around a lot with SSIS 2014 (CTP2).
    In case of CTP2 there was a separate download in MSDN called "SQL Server Data Tools for SQL Server 2014 CTP2" which contained VS2012 + the projects for SSIS, SSRS etc...
    I'm missing these tools for SQL 2014 RTM. What do I do wrong? Could it be, that they are still unreleased?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Specifying Partner Failover in odbc.ini for Linux ODBC driver for SQL Server

    Hi,
    We are trying to specify the partner failover when making connections via Linux ODBC driver for SQL Server. Do you know a way to specify partner failover in the DSN entry in odbc.ini? 
    We are using Linux ODBC driver for SQL Server and unixODBC DriverManager.
    Our DSN is:
    [MyDSN]
    Driver=ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server
    Description=MyDSN
    Server=MySERVER,<port>
    I also tried to use the following connection string in Python (via pyodbc) bypassing the DSN and connecting using the server name.
    cnxn = pyodbc.connect("Server=server1,<port>;UID=sa;PWD=<pwd>;Driver=ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server;Failover_Partner=Server2,<port2>;Database=MyDB")
    If the standby DB is on server1 connection fails. It doesn't try server2. If the DB is principal on server1 connection succeeds.
    Thank you,
     Liviu
    LLL

    Hello,
    Did you use ODBC Driver for SQL Server to connect to database that uses database mirroring?
    According to
    the BOL,it does not list "Failover_Partner" as ODBC Driver for Linux connection string keywords.
    But ODBC driver for Linux supports
    AlwaysOn Availability Groups or Failover Cluster Instance by specify MultiSubnetFailover=True when connecting to a SQL Server 2012 availability group listener or SQL Server 2012 Failover Cluster Instance.
    The following case is about similar issue and it seems that ODBC Driver on Linux does not recognize Failover_Partner in connection string. (Not test myself).You can refer to:
