MNLS - SAP 4.7 installation - database instance (IDES)

hi,
I am installing SAP 4.7. Now I am on a step in the installationprocess (installing database instance) where I must decide if I want to install with MNLS (Multi National Language Support) or without. Why does I need this option?
I would like to use the english and german language. Should I use the option MNLS?
thanks
mike

Hi,
if you're only using one code page, you don't need to perform a MNLS installation. So if you just want to install German and English, don't install MNLS.
Regards,
Seb.

IDES Installation - Database Instance for MS SQL

Hello,
I preveously posted this topic twice in the wrong area of the froum. So I just try again with little bit more knowledge. The problems I had (see history below) seem to be a run time problem (it only took really long). Now it ended up with the error that the startsap.exe could not be started (returncode -1). What could be the reason for that ?
Actually I think I have also a hardware problem. I was not able to find information about the needed HD space. In one SAP note I read that for the IDES on MS SQL 60 GB are needed. I do also have a problem with the topic database file configuration! How this is done in general and what about the files sizes ?
Thanks for any help concerning the installation of the database instance.
BR, Volker
History:
I want to install a IDES 2004 R1 / Netweaver 2004.
I am working on WIN 2003 Enterprise Server with a MS SQL DB. The Central Instance installation ended successfully. I get in trouble with the DB Instance installation:
--> The data to be filled in the sapinst tool was possible, the installation stops at the process step: MS SQL Database Layout. In the log the last Phase is "Setting up Server Phase" and the last two informations after are "Creating Directory", one for data and one for the log. In the explorer they are to see. In the data directory is even a file *.mdf.
Anybody who could tell me what I have to do for the installation ?
Thanks in advance,
Volker
One more note: The information in the footer line of the Installation Wizard says: "Creating database <DB> / this can take a while ...
The while is a never ending while ...

Hei guys,
the reason why the installation did not continue was the fact that the dispatch+work process didn't started correct. Why it finally did after many reasons I couldn't find out 100% - searching in the SAP notes helped to only try a restart.
So after this I continued (new start of sapinst with "Continue installation") was leading to a success. This was a difficult birth.
Still the question about the needed database space is in my head ! ?? !

Hi,
I am having the same with my installation on SolMan3.2 Oracle 9.2.0.7 patch. The error is exactly the same as the one is showing here on all of the log for each task type. How to correct this error is greatly appreciate it. I have checked both notes mentioned in the post, and all environment checked.
However, when I ran the select statement:
SELECT VALUE FROM V$NLS_PARAMETERS WHERE PARAMETER='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
my result> WE8DEC
my environment is set correctly for parameter: ORA_NLS33=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8DEC
I am very appreciate any help due to the urgency of this post.

What do mean with administrative priviledges? there is no administrativ priviledge on Windows. We only have a local group administrators.
in 4.7 sapinst will put erpadm and sapserviceerp to the local administrators group. There is no need to do it manually.
But this will not help in this case, because local Administrators did not have the rights
- replace process level token
- act as part of the operating system
if you don't believe me have a look at gpedit.msc Local Computer Policy - Computer Configartion - Windows Settings - Security Settings - Local Policy - User Rights Assignemt.
But as I already told you, log on and log off will fix this rights problem.
2. regarding memory: RAM is physical Memory
did I read right you are trying to install 4.7 on a 256 MB box?
forget that! 256 MB is often too less for office application. Enterprise Style applications and database will need at least ten times 256 MB (and even that is too small).
By the way Pagefile needs to be at least 4-8 GB.

Problem with database instance installation

Hi@all,
I'm dealing with the installation of the sap solution manager 3.2 SR1.
The platform is a win 2000 server, I use Oracle as the database.
Oracle was installed successfully and the installation of the central instance terminated without errors.
Now I try to install the next step, the database instance.
I always choosed the standard parameters, except for I choosed no domain installation and unchecked using SLD.
Nevertheless, the installation procedure stops at step 16 with the following error log entry (partially translated from german to english):
System call failed. Error 1332 (Allocations of account names and safety identifications were not accomplished.
) in execution of system call 'LookupAccountName' with parameter (NULL, Administrators, ...), line (305) in file (synxcaccmg.cpp).
I've attached the full logfille here.
Looks like sapinst cannot get the system user parameters?
How could I solve this? Any idea?

This was the clue
I read through the whole planning and preparation tutorial and through the preinstallation and installation tutorial.
There's no recommondation to have the english os version installed.
But better such an easy problem instead of a difficult one
Thanks a lot!

IDES ERP 2004 Database Instance

Hi sdn gurus,
I am try to install the ides erp 2004, database(MS SQL 2000 enterprise edition).The central instance installation was successful but database instance is stalling at Database load(post processing stage)with an error in the log file as
sapparam: sapargv( argc, argv) has not been called. sapparam(1c): No Profile used. sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME ...
Can anybody give me an idea how to solve this problem Thankz in advance
Yogi.

The DB load part of the installation is lengthy so I suggest letting the installation finish and then try to start sap.
If the installation aborts during the load process , retry.
Thanks,
Damien

Hi Praveen,
It looks to be more permission issue rather than space issue. Ensure the file system where you copied the DVD has full permission.
Check the installation logs for more details on which other file system needs full permission and work accordingly.

Database instance in different host, ECC 6.0 installation

Hello All,

Does anybody has experience with distribiuted ECC 6.0 ABAP system installation? How can i distribute sap instance and DB instance to different servers (sapinst is not offer this option, only for java systems)?
Thanks a lot.

Thank you very much Michael,

Is it known problem to you? if so, how did you resolve it?

Database instance: You are not a member of the specified Installer group

Hi,
When I start ./RUNINSTALLER in HP-UX to install oracle, as a part of database instance instalation of SAP, the following message appeared.
"The Oracle Universal Installer Inventory on this system does not exist or is not writable. the possible cause are:
        1. The /tmp/orainstRoot.sh script was not executed with root priveleges, or an error occured during execution
        2. You are not a member of the specified Installer group"
Mention that I have executed the script by root user without any error.
Requesting your kind help to solve the problem.

Hi,
I am trying to install oracle 9i as required by SAP ECC 5.0. Instance name is PRD as disaster recovery will be tested in that system. In the same time our SOLMAN is running in that system with database oracle 10g. We are planning to run parallel process in same time SOLMAN and DR PRD.
Till now we have done SAP Central instance installation. While trying to install database instance SAP asked to go /oracle/stage/920_64/Disk1/SAP and run the script RUNINSTALLER in HP-UX system for oracle.
To do this I have done the following
a. Logged on the system as oraprd
b. Set up environmental variable
          ORACLE_HOEM to /oracle/PRD/920_64
          DISPLAY to My work station IP:0.0
and started OS> ./RUNINSTALLER
After some time a window appeared headed by "Inventory Location"
I Specified base directory /oracle/oraInventory and pressed OK.
Then a window asked to run script /tmp/orainstRoot.sh by root user and then press continue
The script run successfully by user root. But when I press continue the following message appeared.
The Oracle universal Installer Inventory on this system does not exist or is not writable. The possible cause are:
        1. /tmp/orainstRoot.sh script was not executed with root priveleges or an error occured during execution.
        2. You are not a member of the specified Installer group.
Please help me how can I resolved the problem.

We have a separate oracle database team who have copied one of the database using oracel backup restore procedure. This database is in 10g and it is working fine from oracle perspective.
Now as a basis admin i need to install database instance using the existing database. I should not overwrite this existing database but i should attach this existing database while installation of database instace.
I have done normal installation using sapinst and installation export but not done this type of installation as yet.
I am not aware about which option of sapinst i should use for installation of database instance so that it can use the existing database without overwriting it OR if i go with normal way will it able to catch the existing database and give me the option to attah it instead of overwriting it?
Request you all to let me know how to go about it.
Thanks & Regards

All, Thanks for replying
Please find below answer to some of your quries.
1) Yes, This is ABAP only installation.
2) The database is oracle and the file systems on database server are as per SAP standard.
So as per Sunny,
Only way forward is to install the database instance using system copy method of back restore.
I have a mail from my senior, saying
"Normally, sapinst should sense database, SAPERP schema owner and you should be all set.
If that does not happen, as soon as sapinst pauses - so you may continue with Oracle Universal Installer in a different window
,you should STOP (abandon) the Database Instance install phase."
Here is the query.
1) "you should STOP (abandon) the Database Instance install phase."
I am not sure how to stop OR abandon the database instnace install phase. Do anyone knows this?
Thanks fore your reply
Regards

Connect to Gateway Failed during database instance installation

Hi All,
I install Netweaver 2004 (6.4) ABAP stack.
I've finished the installation of oracle 10.2 and central instance. During the installation of database instance, an error happens when "starting RFC jobs".
In the logviewer:

About my installation environment:
Windows XP
I've enlarged the page file size before installation.
I've looked up the info from Internet, so I've checked the following:
Under \system32\driver\etc\hosts
10.10.10.10 <domainname> <hostname> is configued as a loopback address (I was prompted to use loopback adapter when installing Oracle, because my network adapter uses DHCP)
Under \system32\driver\etc\services
sapgw00 3300/tcp # SAP System Gateway Central Instance Port
sapgw00s 4800/tcp # SAP System Gateway Security Port
I can ping 10.10.10.10 (get response)
(Any possibility that the installation user can not access 10.10.10.10:3300 ??, I don't know.)
However, I can't logged on the system, because in the MMC, "disp+work.exe" turns yellow(Dialog Queue standstill) and then becomes gray.
Some experts in some forums have commented that a long hostname (>8 characters) might be the problem. Is it true?
(I've not installed the standalone gateway instance yet. ) When do I need to install the gateway instance? Now, I installed as follows: DB software->Central Instance->DB instance.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I had a similar error, when installing SAP BW 3.1. on windows 2000 advanced server, oracle 9.2.0.6.
FRF-00007 Unable to open RFC connection.
ERROR 2006-12-04 07:03:21
FRF-00063 RFC logon failed with message: Failed
However this holds good for NW 2004 also.
To resolve this error you will need to upgrade your SAP kernel level.
1) Download the kernel. i.e. sapdbexe.sar and sapexe.sar.
2) uncar the files sapdbexe.sar and sapexe.sar using the sapcar.exe
On dos prompt go to the particular directory where u have downloaded the above sar files using "cd" command.
3) To Uncar the files use this command on dos prompt
SAPCAR -xvf <your-SAR-file> to uncar the files.
4) shut down sap using the MMC.
then in windows services.msc stop saposcol ,stop oracle service sapserviceSID and and the sapSID_##
5) Now just copy the new kernel files you have uncared above into the /usr/sap/SID/exe/run/ directory of your system
6) Start the services you stopped and start SAP using the MMC.
Now you should be able to logon. Sometimes the MMC shows the yellow status due to missing workprocess status. However the system should work fine.
