Portal down after KMC install

Hello,
After installing KMC from the SR1 DVD I can't even get to the Portal login page.  The installation went well and the analyzer shows everything green (one green check with a line through it for j2ee login but since I see the same results with other working portals i assume this is okay) I saw a few threads about this kind of problem....could it because I had to reset the adm password? Here is the error (something to do with security?):  I can access the root of the j2ee webserver and see the usermanagement of the portal through there...

If this situation persists, please contact your system administrator.
Please help.

Seems like the problem was the security zones.
Once I gave "Everyone" read access to:
com.sap.portal
com.sap.UME
It worked fine again....weird a KMC install would reset this.

    You need more ram. But has it really been 3 months since you rebooted this computer? Restart it once in awhile and some of that slowness might go away.

  • Macbook freezing and shutting down after Leopard install

    so.. i have a black Core 2 Duo Macbook with 2gb ram, and i installed Leopard on it.
    several times since the install, the screen has frozen - all animations stopped, everything unresponsive, etc. the first few times that was it - then it's been crashing within an hour or two every time i reboot - this time with the message telling me how to restart my computer by holding down the power button.
    not sure what is causing it - i thought it was Spaces, but i disabled that and the crashes are still happening.
    anyone else experiencing this???

    I have had a number of hangs on my new 24" iMac with Leopard, but none so far on my MacBook. I thought I had found an explanation last night after reading an artice on the Daring Fireball about Logitech mouse drivers ( I use an MX1000 Laser Mouse ) so disabled the Logitech Control Panel, but I have just had another hang. This time I was just logging into work in Win XP under Parallels but last night I was just browsing in Time Machine.
    Hope I can find an answer soon as this is getting a little frustrating.

  • Portal down after system refresh

    Hello all,
    We have done a system refresh for QAS from PROD for BI with export import of the backup into test. Everything was ok and refreshed BI is working fine but the SAP BI PORTAL is down. Nothing it is working. I can`t acces the link of the portal nor the visual admin nor configtool. Can you help us making the test working. I know a solution of reinstalling the portal with sapinst but i do not belive that this is the only solution.
    The Test Portal have nothing changed. It is the same like it was but the BIT has changed a lot. Can anybody give some ideas how to make it work?
    I give you some information found in logs:

    So i have open both files services / hosts.. and everything seems to be ok. On services i found
    sapgw11       3311/tcp      # SAP System Gateway Port
    The servers are AIX and the DB si Oracle. Nobody changed these files for more than 2 years and before refresh oh QAS the portal worked just fine. Practically the problem is that there is no connection between BI TST and TST portal. Nothing even at unix level. I think the problem is soewhere between DB and portal.. because he can`t find any connection.

  • Portal down after upgrade from 10.1.2.2 to 10.1.2.3

    Hi Folks,
    The weekend we upgraded the infrastructure/mid-tier from 10.1.2.2 to 10.1.2.3 and did the same for the metadata repository. We noticed since then portal is down though OC4J_Portal is up. Any idea how the upgrade would cause this and how to fix it?
    Thanks
    Troy

    Hi Erik,
    I checked the metalink note you recommended and sure enough my PortalListeniongHostPort and HTTPPort did not match. I changed them and added the root certificate in b64InternetCertificate.txt and it now shows as up. Thank you so much for referring me to that document. It is greatly appreciated.

  • Macbook pro shutting down after I installed new RAM

    I recently installed 8 GB of new RAM (purchased from Best buy). and a few times since I did that (yesterday morning),  my laptop has shut down and a grey screen has popped up with something saying  "Your computer has shut down because of a problem, please wait a few minutes for it to restart"  Or something like that.
    I've installed RAM before and this was super easy and quick.  The machine says both RAM sticks are "OK" when I go to the system report.   Yet I cant help but think thats the problem.    
    Does anyone know what that could be?   The ONLY thing I am a tad unsure of, is the little "pop" or "click" the sticks should make when you put them in.  I don't remember hearing that.
    Any ideas?  I really don't want to have to go back to my standard 4 gigs or RAM.
    system specs.
    2.8 C2D Mid 2009 Macbook Pro, 

    Either your RAM is no good, of poor quality, the wrong specs or it's not installed correctly or it got subjected to static electricity when you put it in.
    Best Buy isn't as Mac centric, thus the quality of RAM that Mac's require may not be there.
    You should have purchased from Crucial.com or Other World Computing or similar that tests the RAM to make sure it works the first time you put it in, as it costs everyone money to ship bad RAM back and forth.
    I put in 16GB a couple of days ago, took five minutes and it works perfectly.
    Nothing like top tier RAM for a top of the line machine, especially with all those tiny, easy to lose screws Apple uses.

  • Why Wont my mac Mini Shut Down After SSD Install?

    Heres the Gist,
    I have a late 2009 Mac Mini (A1283) 2.53 GHz, 4gig ram.  that i've been running as a media server.  Recently the harddrive died in it. I decided to install a Intel 320 Series GEN3 SSD Drive.  The install went fine and clean, Mac booted up perfectly, installed a new version of OSX 10.6, no issues, did all the updates. The only software I installed was Plex Media Server (http://www.plexapp.com/)  and Google Chrome.
    Now my issue is, when i go to shut the Mac Mini down, all that happens is the dock disappears and all the desktop icons then it just sits there, nothing happens.  I reset the PMU and it still does the same thing, except now the fan is on high all the time.
    Other things i've tried:
    Verifiying and Repairing the Disc Permissions
    Verifiying and Repairing the Disc
    Closing all apps before shut down
    disconnecting all network drives and external drives before shut down
    reseting the PMU
    When I get home im going to try:
    Resetting the SMU.
    Running YASU (Although its a fresh install with no apps so not to sure what it will find)
    Im looking for any and all other suggestions to try.  I was considering upgrading to 10.7 to see if its just a software glitch, but im not to sure why this would be happening now.
    thanks for any and all advice in advance

  • Error when registring Provider after finished install the portal.

    Error when registring Provider after finished install the portal.
    Hi.. we are using Oracle9iAS 9.0.2.0.1, Sun Solaris 8.
    Our problem is, after we finished installed the iAS, then open the Portal, and we tried to register a provider, we get these errors:
    "You are not authorized to view this page"
    "This component ID: 1068970504 has no existing versions - you need to create one first (WWV-01808)"
    "Error : Failed to service the client. No further information available"
    "Error: The XML parser encountered an Error, and could not complete the conversion for portlet id=6,343, it returned the following message: XML Parsing Error "
    can anybody help?...Should we, after the installation, should install any patches?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    When you boot from the install disk, before you proceed through the install screens, first go to the Installers menu, and choose Disk Utility. If the internal drive appears, select it and click Repair Disk. See if you get errors, and if Disk Utility is able to correct those errors. If the drive does not appear, you may have serious drive issues which another drive utility (such as DiskWarrior) may be able to correct, but it may be severe enough to necessitate replacing the drive.
    Since you've already tried Erase and Install, can I assume you have a backup of any files you need? If not, if you have access to another Mac, can you restart the G5 in Firewire mode (restart with the T key held down) and connect it using a Firewire cable to your other Mac. If the G5's drive appears on the other Mac's desktop, copy across any files you need.

  • Pse trial v12 installed but when opening the editor it shuts down after 2 seconds, what can be the problem? I have windows 8.1 64 bit with the latest video drivers installed. Thanks

    PSE trial 12 installed just fine but when i start the editor it opens and shuts down after about 2 seconds without an error, the only thing that appears is a message with 'continue trial'.
    I have windows 8.1 64 bit and i already installed the latest video drivers, intel hd 4000 and nvidia geforce 710M.
    I also installed premiere elements version 12 with the same problem.
    What can be the problem here, please help?
    Thanks.

    Hi roberto-
    Yes, its a shame. I have also contacted lenovo support hoping that they can sort out this problem. However, first response from them was 'contact your internet service provider since internet connectivity goes down'! :-/ I am hoping I have been able to get through to them now at least about where the problem lies. I wonder if anyone has tried using the laptop with the same broadcom wireless adapter with some other version of OS (linux, windows 7 etc.) and whether they still face the same problem. I haven't tried that yet. If this is just an OS / driver issue I hope someone somewhere is working on a fix! If not, I guess the only other solution would be to get an external USB wifi adapter but that is not something one would want to do when you buy a brand new Lenovo laptop. This was a big let down for me.

  • 8.1 can't shut down after installing itunes

    I recently reformatted and did a clean install of window's 8.1
    I have done all updates, both windows and drivers and the machine is very smooth and stable.
    After installing iTunes the computer will no longer shut down, it displays the logging off / shutting down screen but then just reboots.
    I have attempted numerous resolutions to no avail, i.e. disabled NIC as bootable device, disabled the hybrid boot feature & flashed and tweaked some BIOS settings.
    The computer will not even shut down when I give the command "shutdown /s /t 0"
    I only had Windows Office and iTunes installed on the computer and suspecting that iTunes may be the culprit, I uninstalled it and now the computer shuts down without any issue.
    I have since read several threads about iTunes and shutdown/restart issues with 64 bit versions of Windows although I have not found anyone else with my exact issue.
    Is anyone aware of a resolution for this?
    For now I will need to install iTunes so I can sync my phone and then uninstall so I can shut down!

    Fingers crossed there will be an update for this, I was lucky that my install so was new that there weren't very many things that could have caused it because I don't think it would have ever occurred to me that iTunes was the issue.
    I literally tried every other possibility before waking up in the middle of the night and realizing that the problem started right after I installed iTunes.
    I have had issues with Apple software in the past where I attempt to disable it from launching automatically when I boot the computer and it will simply create another entry for itself in the startup list.
    If I disable that one it makes another, and another and another.... It's like the freaking Apple hydra.
    The want me to know how much I need them! lol

  • HT5730 After I installed 10.8.48.4 Internet browsing slowed down to the pace of a dial-up connection.  How can I get back to normal operating speed?

    After I installed 10.8.4, my Internet browsing slowed down to the pace of a dial-up connection -- unless it froze up completely.  How do I get my system back to a normal operating mode?  Can I dump 10.8.4 and go back to the one that at least worked?

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them.
    1. Have you restarted your router and broadband modem since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    2. Are any other web browsers installed, and are they also slow?
    3. What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    4. Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they also slow?
    5. If you can test Safari on another network, is it slow there too?
    6. If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?
