Installation halts - probably because of sapdb.inf

Hello fellow SAP admins
I'm trying to install SAP solution manager/netweaver 7.0 on a Sun Sparc T2000 with Solaris 10. The installation works fine until I get to phase 13 of 47: "Create database schema". I don't get an error message, but the installation halts and I can read the following from the promt:
"File sapdb.inf does exist. Will use the commands in file sapdb.inf."
Everything seems to work and I cannot locate logfiles that tell me otherwise.
XCMDOUT.log ends with the following:
> Subprocess starts at 20080513084428
Execute Command : /sapdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -n SunT2000 -d BDS -u control,********
Start subprocess as user with uid: root
Execute Session Command : sql_connect superdba,********
Execute Session Command : sql_execute SELECT VALUE FROM DBPARAMETERS WHERE DESCRIPTION='_UNICODE'
Execute Session Command : exit
> Subprocess stops at 20080513084430
OK
OK
END
'YES'
Any ideas?
NB: You can find a similiar unsolved post by David Ingersoll from Mar 31, 2008 3:30 PM by searching the term "sapdb.inf".

  • CS6 Installer halts when installing Adobe Help

    CS6 Creative Suite Design & Web Premium Trial downloads, extracts, but the installer halts when it hits "Currently Installing Adobe Help", and the install time keeps increasing indefinitely. I have tried over and over, re-downloading, using the direct download links, running the creative suite cleaner, the Adobe Support tool, restarting my computer, etc. etc. etc. It does this same thing when I have tried to install Dreamweaver CS6 on its own, but I was able to download & install Lightroom 4 with no problems whatsoever. What can I do at this point?

    I too am having this problem, and killing InstallAdobeHelp.exe DOES seem to allow the installer to continue. Thank you for that tip, Dan!

    A couple notes:
    I am installing CS6 Master Collection trial.
    I am running Windows 7 Ultimate x64
    I had CS4 & CS5 Master Collection installed (non-trial)
    I tried removing both, with no luck.
    I updated Download Manager and Adobe Air just previous to installing.
    I have tried restarting, installing with and without internet access/activation (shouldn't really matter) - Attempted installation about 6 times.
    Running InstallAdobeHelp from command line using the same call the installer does (InstallAdobeHelp.exe CommandLine: appVersion=4.0.244 appId=chc pubId=4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1 installerArg1=-silent installerArg2=-eulaAccepted installerArg3=-programMenu installerArg4=AdobeHelp.air) Gives the same result - an empty window appears and never goes away.
    Canceling the installer doesn't kill InstallAdobeHelp.exe, it will keep running in the background until killed - even if the installer is forcefully stopped, and will even run 4 or 5 InstallAdobeHelp.exe processes at the same time, if you keep trying to install.
    Big idea: I saw something in the log about already having AdobeHelp 1.0.0.0 installed (Probably from CS4/5?) I'm guessing this is causing the conflict:

  • Hello, I am trying to upgrade to yosemite, but I get the "disk cannot be used to startup your computer" error. Resizing the partition does not work, I get the error "MediaKit reports no such partition" probably because I installed linux in dual boot

    Hello, I am trying to upgrade my macbook pro to yosemite, but I get the "disk cannot be used to startup your computer" error.
    Resizing the partition does not work for me and I get the error "MediaKit reports no such partition" probably because I installed linux in dual boot and the disk manager is lost.
    Anyway to tell the yosemite installer that it should not pay attention whether the disk is bootable or not ?
    If I am doomed, any way to delete the installer and downloaded OS from my hard drive ?
    Thanks for your help

    As usual, the Linux installer wrecked the partition table. You would have to boot from your OS X installation disc and repartition. Doing so will of course remove all data from the drive, so you must back up first if you haven't already done so.

  • I have an older iMAC that once burned CD's with no issues. Now I get an error message saying "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The device is not accessible, probably because it was removed". I have never had it touched so the device was not removed.Help

    I have an olde iMac that once I have an older iMAC that once burned CD's with no issues. Now I get an error message saying "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The device is not accessible, probably because it was removed". I have never had it touched so the device was not removed. Please advise as to what could be the problem. How to fix. Thanks

    Try resetting the SMC and PRAM first, if that doesn't help try a cleaning disc.....and then buy an inexpensive external burner. Slimline super drive failures are all too common.
    To reset the SMC
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord.
    Wait fifteen seconds.
    Attach the computer's power cord.
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.

  • Error message with offer to download the 4.1.B.0.587 update and note: "installation not possible" (because it's already there) cannot partition SD card

    Hi - Recently I put the latest update on my LT15i (4.1.B.0.587), after this I rooted the phone, and everything seemed okay. But since then I keep getting an error message with an offer to download the 4.1.B.0.587 update and the note: "installation not possible" (because it's already there). The news line on top shows a red exclamation mark all the time. It seems to me that it is due to this error that I cannot partition my SD card. Does anybody have an idea how to fix that? Thanks much in advance, and happy holidays - nerissa

    Absolutely sure.. There is no connection at all.. reset is only the router side of the TC.
    For the hard disk to be erased you need to access the airport utility disk page.. request erase and confirm the operation.
    2) I can access to time capsule by ethernet but I am not able to input the corret setting by myself
    Thank you again
    I am uncertain why if you have access you cannot change settings.. but that is why you reset things so any of those problems should be fixed.
    Here is the Apple info on reset.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3728
    And here is the quote from the horse's mouth so to speak.
    Factory default reset: Perform this reset if you wish to repurpose the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule and want to remove all personal profiles and settings first. This reset resets the device to its state when you first purchased it. Data stored on internal or external hard drives connected to the device will not be erased. If you choose, you may manually erase the hard drive using AirPort Utility.

    I lost my iPad mini while traveling recently.  I tried using the Find My iPhone App (which showed my iMac, my iPhones, my old iPad, and my macbook) but the mini didn't show up...probably because it was turned off or the battery ran down.
    I still have the original receipt from when I purchased it, showing the article number and the serial number.  Is there any way to locate it with that info?

    No, unless you had Find My iPad enabled on it then there isn't any way to try and locate it.
    Have you reported it to the police in case somebody hands it in ? You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc., and if it was a cellular model also contact your carrier.

    As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.

  • Installation ended prematurely because of an error.

    Hi There,
    could need a bit of insight. I am trying to update my XI 3.1 installl with SP2.3. SP2 installed ok but installing FP1, 2, or 3 fails with the error message in the subject line.
    Sometimes the install does not even start. After running the exe it unpacks everything and then the Language selection pops up and after that nothing more.
    Any idea how I can get that to work? I had no issues with the CR FPs.
    Thanks,

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Why Tempro 3.3.3 "Installation ended prematurely because of an error"?

    hello forum,
    i have a Satellite L500-1XD running windows 7 64 bit. i _had_ tempro 3.0 preinstalled from when i first bought the satellite in mar '10. for months, i ignored tempro's demands to update to tempro 3.3.3; until today. so, i downloaded it from [here|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/tempro/ToshibaW7TEMPRO.zip|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/generic/TEMPRO_W7_RELEASE/].
    when i ran the TEMPRO_3.3.3.exe file, i got the "Welcome to Toshiba TEMPRO Installation Wizard" window as expected. but then when i clicked the "Next" button, all i got was a "Fatal error" dialog that said "Installation ended prematurely because of an error".
    I searched this forum for a solution and i found [this thread|http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=167329|Satellite P100 fails to instal TEMPRO 2.0.3] that advised the original poster to uninstall the previous version. so, that's what *i* did. i uninstalled the working version 3.0 of Tempro that came preinstalled. but when i tried to install 3.3.3 again, i got the same "Installation ended prematurely because of an error"! now, i don't have tempro at all!
    please, can anybody help with advice on what to do to get this thing successfully installed? i found a related entry in the windows 7 event viewer (see below) if that's of any use.
    thanks in advance for your help.

    i've found [a resolution related to a different product|http://forum.ventrilo.com/showpost.php?p=134644&postcount=36| Vista x64 Ultimate - Installation ended prematurely because of an error], where the poster reported the exact same "Installation ended prematurely because of an error" dialog and event id!
    from a command line, i ran:
    +d:\downloads\tempro_setup_dir\TEMPRO_3.3.3.exe /passive+
    and that installed tempro "silently". to quote [the thread where i found the resolution|http://forum.ventrilo.com/showpost.php?p=134644&postcount=36| Vista x64 Ultimate - Installation ended prematurely because of an error]:

    > This will run the installation without the dialog boxes of the installer being displayed. Of course you will be accepting all the defaults, but the 64-bit version installs in the "Program Files" directory.
    phew! finally i can now resume all those annoying alerts ;)

  • During deployment :windows installation cannot continue because a required driver could not be installed

    During a deployment from wds i get the following error with windows 8.1 "windows installation cannot continue because

    What to do?
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    The problem is a unsuccesful installation of driver in the driverstore, the first step would be to ensure that you are using the latest driver for the hardware and operating system or you’re experiencing
    compatibility issues with a driver.
    Then I suggest pressing shift+f10, and type diskpart then lisk disk, view whether all disks work fine.
