Can you help me with this error? where can i find the correct media for our installation?
Our Server is running Intel Xeon 64 Bits Processors with Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition 64 Bits

Hello Markus,
I´m downloading the media you suggested, 51031282 , but since my conection is very slow it will take some time to complete.
This Kernel is UNICODE (51031282)?
Oliver Ruckober from SAP, wrote me
+ "Dear Customer
you installed the IDES ERP2004 with option unicode but this version of
IDES is the last non unicode version.
All IDES versions lower than IDES ECC 6.0 are NON-UNICODE systems !!
best regards Oliver Ruckober
GM-STS" +
Regarding your advice
"Be aware that you must not install Java into this system and that it's not supported to connect any Java applications to non-unicode systems. New installations should always be Unicode."
I will install an ABAP only instance of the IDES (NON-UNICODE) in a separated DB instance
Kind Regards

Hello Ravi,
this problem probably occurred when a SQL user was trying to be created using a password with special characters, but failed.
Could you please copy the last couple of lines of the protocol named 'XCMDOUT.log' into this thread?

Error installing SAP IDES 6.00

Dear guys,
I'm installing SAP IDES 6.00 in VMWare with Win Server 2003, 2GB RAM. My laptop Spec are 4GB RAM, Core2Duo. I'm installing SAP 6.00 in external hard drive 1 TB. I have been trying for 5 times. And found the same problems in import ABAP. Only 7 completed. Before that only 4. All in the same step.This is the error message RROR      2020-06-30 12:18:31

Do you think we can run SAP 6.00 in VMware? i want to install SCM too. it is better SCM 5.0 with IDES 4.71 or 6? Does anyone here ever try IDES 4.71 in Win XP Pro SP2? I read from other forum, SAP IDES 6.00 can run in Win XP Pro SP3
Thanks for the answer

> But i read from VMware website, they support oracle.
Yes - but not vice versa. Oracle does not allow running databases on VMWare:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/virtualization
--> Partner Virtualization Supported by SAP
Here read "Note 1173954 - Support of Oracle for VMWare and XEN"
Apart from that you should just read what you posted as error message:
> CJSlibModule::writeError_impl()
> CJS-30022 Program 'Migration Monitor' exits with error code 103. For details see log file(s) import_monitor.java.log,
import_monitor.log.
Did you check those logfiles?

Windows 2003 and windows 7 access compability

Hi,
I am now using IBM server with windows 2003 32 bit operating system and clients are windows xp and windows 7. I want to know that if I convert all clients to windows 7. Is there any connectivity/accessing issues to server.
Is there any compability / accessing issues within windows 2003 and windows 7?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
Windows Server 2003 is going out of support 2015.
Windows 7 works together with it without problems.
If this is a domain you have to be aware that GPO settings for Windows 7 should be configured from a Windows 7 machine with RSAT installed, otherwise lot of settings are not available within Windows Server 2003.
Also you have to think about server stored profiles, if used, as the .V2 profiles are used with Windows 7 and the older profiles will not work for users logging on to the Windows 7 machines.
Maybe there is more to consider but therefore the information you have provided is too less.

Portal Drive Error--re-install SAP NW Portal Drive software and try again

Dear Experts,
Could you please let me know if there is any permanent fix for
Portal Drive inconsistence behaviour.
1.We use NW2004s SPS 13.
2.After the installation of Portal Drive (version 4.5.6796 ) on an
desktop, windows is not stable and must be restart (cold start).
3. After the restart the problems still exists and only a
deinstallation resolves the problem.
4. Sometimes the problem occurs on connecting to a service,
sometimes on disconnecting.
Sometimes on starting windows, but before the load of Protal
Drive.
5."Presently we are getting error SAP NetWeaver Portal Drive is not installed or configured correctly.Please re-install SAP
NetWeaver Portal Drive software and try again"
6. If we uninstall it and reinstall, it is working fine.
I wanted to know if there is any permanent fix for this inconsistance in Portal drive.
Because i have received complaints from more than 9 users in this week.
Really thanks for helping me
Vishali.B

Hey just a update, so even though apple said the HDD was fine because of the S.M.A.R.T status and it was been picked it would be fine I did not agree, took my iMac apart went out to the local computer shop picked up a cheap 1tb WD HDD and now the iMac is worked fine and smooth :-)
So now I know that was the issue I can order a nice new SSD for the iMac and use the new HDD I got in an external case :-) just incase anyone had the same issue that's the fix. Buy a new HDD or SSD

Install Oracle VM on WIndows 2003 Sevser/XP/Vista

Has any one successfully installed Oracle VM on WIndows 2003 Server or XP or Vista?
Is it possible to migrate an exisitng Oracle Express Edition database to Oracle VM? Or the Oracle Express Edition has to be installed on Oracle VM on one platform before it is portable to another machine/server.
Is there any viewlet on how to use Oracle VM?

To answer your first question: Oracle VM Server can NOT be installed on Windows.
From the OVM-FAQ:
Does Oracle VM require a host operating system?
No. Oracle VM installs directly on server hardware and does not require a host operating system.
This applies to the VM Server. For the VM Manager:
The Oracle VM Manager works on the operating system Oracle Enterprise Linux 4 Update 5 or later.
FYI - these servers are all Linux-based.
You might check the documentation in the "Virtualization Technology Center": http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/virtualization/index.html to find some more answers.

Cant install oracle 8i in windows 2003 server

hi,
I am a newbie in Oracle.While Im trying to install Oracle 8i in Windows 2003 server , setup is not running.It didn't show anything.When trying to run from auto run, after splash screen nothing came.I formatted hard disk,changed two more hard disks,.changed machine...but cant install it in no way... It is the same case in Windows XP home edition.
But it is running in one of my friend's machine(windows 2003 server)
Please help me with valuable solutions.
Thanks in advance

Did your friend install on W2003 or upgrade from an older version of the OS?
When trying to run programs on an OS that is not certified for the programs, it is hit-n-miss whether the OS actually has the support files needed for the programs.
Think about this: the Oracle environment needs OS support in the form of DLLs and other files. The contents of the DLLs are made visible as APIs. Each time Microsoft releases patches, it is possible that the APIs that Oracle used are changed. This is extremely true when a new version of the OS is released, and even more true with stripped versions such as XP Home.
If your friend installed and then applied patches, [s]he may have hit the proper API combination. If you appled patches first, you may have skootched your APIs to the point that Oracle can not longer install.
Even if you happen to get it installed, you run the risk of getting clobbered any time you install a new Microsoft patch. The risk is minimized when you use a certified combination of the OS and application.

Installing SAP IDES on personal laptop

Dear All,
I would like to install SAP IDES on my laptop so as to do some testing at my home during weekends.
Could someone provide me a detailed insight as to the following:
1) Is there any service provider in Bangalore to do IDES installation on personal laptop?
2) How much it would cost?
3) Minimum system requirements in laptop.
4) How much of additional Hard disk space is required so that the laptop performance after installation of IDES doesn't come down.
Please feel free to call me if some one has already done the IDES installation on personal laptop.
Thanks in Advance dear folks for your valuable inputs.
Regards,
Sreeni.

Hi Sreeni,
This is Sourav from Kolkata. I did a course in SAP from kolkata and is going to install IDES in a laptop. I have got an acer laptop with the following config:
Core 2 Duo processor 1.73 GHz.
1 GB RAM
160 GB HDD
DVD writer
Price is around 40500/-
One thing i would like to suggest u, install the version 4.6, don't go for 4.7 as it has some problems. The installation may fail as it s a tedious process. Also an expert would do the installation.
Further SAP requires 80 GB space. So better u take a 160 GB m/C for better performance and 1GB ram.
Do mail me about ur status. I am also going to install next week.
Mail me at [email protected]
