I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought.

I have a question regarding my txt/alert tones. I recently updated my iPhone 5's software without first backing it up on iCloud or my computer (oops). After my phone finished updating, i lost the new ringtones and txt/alert tones i had bought. I connected my iPhone to my computer and sync'd it hoping that it could download my purchases from the itunes store and then put them back on to my phone but no such luck. When i look at my iphone on my computer and look at tones, they do not show up at all. However, if i click on the "On This iPhone" tab and click on "Tones" the deleted ringtones and altert tones show up...they are just grey'd out and have a dotted circle to the left of them. I also tried to go to the iTunes store on my phone and redownload them and it tells me that i have already purchased this ringtone and asks me if i want to buy it again. I press Cancel. I know when i do that with music it would usually let me redownload the song without buying it again but it wont let me with the ringtones...so how do i get them back? any help would be greatly appreicated

Greetings,
I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
Good Luck - Cheers,
M.

Few questions regarding the "Update CMS" button

Hello,
Few questions regarding the "Update CMS" button:
1. When I create new product at the SLD I see it at the add SC table even if I don't click the "Update CMS" button first. If so, when will I use this option?
2. When I do click the "Update CMS" button it takes it between 30-40 minutes to finish the update. During this time frame the whole development portal (it is sitting on the same WAS as the NWDI) becomes extremely slow. Is this normal response time or do I have a certain performance problem with my server?
Thank you in advance,
Roy

I'd believe the first bios's temps more than the second...
However what temps are given when using speed fan and/or everest? (in windows)

HT1212 I am unable to get our of a continuous cycle when trying to update or restore my iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.

When I tried to update my iPad I got an error 9. Now, I am unable to access my iPad. It is in a continuous cycle when I try to update or restore the iPad 2. Plug in to iTunes 12.0.1 (latest version). Click update, told can't update, have to restore. Restore fails with error 9. Any help appreciated.
Here's the cycle:
I plug in my iPad when “cable to iTunes shows on iPad screen. It says "Your iPad can't be updated, you must restore it to factory settings." That bad enough news, but it gets worse.
Click Restore
Extracting software…
Preparing iPad for restore
Waiting for iPad…
Verifying iPad restore with Apple…
(empty bar under the Apple logo…does not show any activity)
“The iPad “iPad” could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (9).”
Notes: I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 on my iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) in the last week. It’s the first time I’m tried to backup/update my iPad since the iMac update.
I swapped out the USB cable to a new cable and get the same results.
I also unplugged all other USB devices from the iMac and security on my iPad and still get the same results.
I find it strange that it shows no Serial number for my my iPad 2 when plugged in. It shows “Serial Number: n/a on the screen when it displays: “iPad Recovery Mode To update your iPad without erasing its contents, click Update. To restore your iPad to its factory settings, click Restore iPad.
I prefer to update my iPad, but it displays “Your iPad can’t be updated, you must restore it to factory settings. If you previously backed up the iPad, click Restore Backup after the restore process completes.”
It’s a continuous loop. I get the display on my iPad to plug in the iPad to iTunes, plug it in which ends after going through the above procedure saying an error occurred (9).
So now I cannot use my iPad. When I turn it on I get the display showing me to plug it into iTunes with the cable. Since this is the only option I have I plug it in and the loop begins.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Questions regarding customisation/configuration of PS CS4

Hello
I have accumulated a list of questions regarding customising certain things in Photoshop. I don't know if these things are doable and if so, how.
Can I make it so that the list of blending options for a layer is by default collapsed when you first apply any options?
Can I make it possible to move the canvas even though I'm not zoomed in enough to only have parts of it visible on my screen?
Is it possible to enable a canvas rotate shortcut, similar to the way you can Alt+RightClick to quickly change brush size?
Is it possible to lock button positions? Sometimes I accidentally drag them around when I meant to click.
Is it possible to lock panel sizes? For example, if I have the Navigator and the Layers panels vertically in the same group, can I lock the height of the navigator so that I don't have to re-adjust it all the time? Many panels have a minimum height so I guess what I am asking for is if it's possible to set a maximum height as well.
Is it possible to disable Photoshop from automatically appending "copy" at the end of layer/folder names when I duplicate them?
These are things I'd really like to change to my liking as they are problems I run into on a daily basis.
I hope someone can provide some nice solutions

2. No. It's a sore spot that got some forum time when Photoshop CS4 was first released, then again with CS5. It's said that the rules change slightly when using full-screen mode, though I personally haven't tried it.
3. Not sure, since I haven't tried it. However, you may want to explore the Edit - Keyboard Shortcuts... menu, if you haven't already.
4. What buttons are you talking about? Those you are creating in your document? If so, choose the layer you want to lock in the LAYERS panel, then look at the little buttons just above the listing of the layers:
5. There are many, many options for positioning and sizing panels. Most start with making a panel visible, then dragging it somewhere by its little tab. One of the important features is that you can save your preferred layout as a named workspace. Choose the Window - Workspace - New Workspace... to create a new named workspace (or to update one you've already created). The name of that menu is a little confusing. Once you have created your workspace, if something gets out of place, choose Window - Workspace - Reset YourNamedWorkspace to bring it back to what was saved.
You'll find that panels like to "stick together", which helps with arranging them outside of the Photoshop main window.
As an example, I use two monitors, and this is my preferred layout:
6. No, it's not possible to affect the layer names Photoshop generates, as far as I know. I have gotten in the habit of immediately naming them per their usage, so that I don't confuse myself (something that's getting easier and easier to do...).
Hope this helps!

I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac Pro

I have some questions regarding setting up a software RAID 0 on a Mac pro (early 2009).
These questions might seem stupid to many of you, but, as my last, in fact my one and only, computer before the Mac Pro was a IICX/4/80 running System 7.5, I am a complete novice regarding this particular matter.
A few days ago I installed a WD3000HLFS VelociRaptor 300GB in bay 1, and moved the original 640GB HD to bay 2. I now have 2 bootable internal drives, and currently I am using the VR300 as my startup disk. Instead of cloning from the original drive, I have reinstalled the Mac OS, and all my applications & software onto the VR300. Everything is backed up onto a WD SE II 2TB external drive, using Time Machine. The original 640GB has an eDrive partition, which was created some time ago using TechTool Pro 5.
The system will be used primarily for photo editing, digital imaging, and to produce colour prints up to A2 size. Some of the image files, from scanned imports of film negatives & transparencies, will be 40MB or larger. Next year I hope to buy a high resolution full frame digital SLR, which will also generate large files.
Currently I am using Apple's bundled iPhoto, Aperture 2, Photoshop Elements 8, Silverfast Ai, ColorMunki Photo, EZcolor and other applications/software. I will also be using Photoshop CS5, when it becomes available, and I will probably change over to Lightroom 3, which is currently in Beta, because I have had problems with Aperture, which, until recent upgrades (HD, RAM & graphics card) to my system, would not even load images for print. All I had was a blank preview page, and a constant, frozen "loading" message - the symbol underneath remained static, instead of revolving!
It is now possible to print images from within Aperture 2, but I am not happy with the colour fidelity, whereas it is possible to produce excellent, natural colour prints using its "minnow" sibling, iPhoto!
My intention is to buy another 3 VR300s to form a 4 drive Raid 0 array for optimum performance, and to store the original 640GB drive as an emergency bootable back-up. I would have ordered the additional VR300s already, but for the fact that there appears to have been a run on them, and currently they are out of stock at all, but the more expensive, UK resellers.
I should be most grateful to receive advice regarding the following questions:
QUESTION 1:
I have had a look at the RAID setting up facility in Disk Utility and it states: "To create a RAID set, drag disks or partitions into the list below".
If I install another 3 VR300s, can I drag all 4 of them into the "list below" box, without any risk of losing everything I have already installed on the existing VR300?
Or would I have to reinstall the OS, applications and software again?
I mention this, because one of the applications, Personal accountz, has a label on its CD wallet stating that the Licence Key can only be used once, and I have already used it when I installed it on the existing VR300.
QUESTION 2:
I understand that the failure of just one drive will result in all the data in a Raid 0 array being lost.
Does this mean that I would not be able to boot up from the 4 drive array in that scenario?
Even so, it would be worth the risk to gain the optimum performance provide by Raid 0 over the other RAID setup options, and, in addition to the SE II, I will probably back up all my image files onto a portable drive as an additional precaution.
QUESTION 3:
Is it possible to create an eDrive partition, using TechTool Pro 5, on the VR300 in bay !?
Or would this not be of any use anyway, in the event of a single drive failure?
QUESTION 4:
Would there be a significant increase in performance using a 4 x VR300 drive RAID 0 array, compared to only 2 or 3 drives?
QUESTION 5:
If I used a 3 x VR300 RAID 0 array, and installed either a cloned VR300 or the original 640GB HD in bay 4, and I left the Startup Disk in System Preferences unlocked, would the system boot up automatically from the 4th. drive in the event of a single drive failure in the 3 drive RAID 0 array which had been selected for startup?
Apologies if these seem stupid questions, but I am trying to determine the best option without foregoing optimum performance.

Well said.
Steps to set up RAID
Setting up a RAID array in Mac OS X is part of the installation process. This procedure assumes that you have already installed Mac OS 10.1 and the hard drive subsystem (two hard drives and a PCI controller card, for example) that RAID will be implemented on. Follow these steps:
1. Open Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities).
2. When the disks appear in the pane on the left, select the disks you wish to be in the array and drag them to the disk panel.
3. Choose Stripe or Mirror from the RAID Scheme pop-up menu.
4. Name the RAID set.
5. Choose a volume format. The size of the array will be automatically determined based on what you selected.
6. Click Create.
Recovering from a hard drive failure on a mirrored array
1. Open Disk Utility in (/Applications/Utilities).
2. Click the RAID tab. If an issue has occurred, a dialog box will appear that describes it.
3. If an issue with the disk is indicated, click Rebuild.
4. If Rebuild does not work, shut down the computer and replace the damaged hard disk.
5. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
6. Drag the icon of the new disk on top of that of the removed disk.
7. Click Rebuild.

Drive A + B = VOLUME ONE
Drive C + D = VOLUME TWO
What you put on those volumes is of course up to you and easy to do.
A system really only needs to be backed up "as needed" like before you add or update or install anything.
/Users can be backed up hourly, daily, weekly schedule
Media files as needed.
Things that hurt performance:
Page outs
Spotlight - disable this for boot drive and 'scratch'
SCRATCH: Temporary space; erased between projects and steps.

(normally I'd link to Wikipedia but I can't load right now)
Disk drives are the slowest component, so tackling that has always made sense. Easy way to make a difference. More RAM only if it will be of value and used. Same with more/faster processors, or graphic card.

Questions regarding Outlook Web App, Remote Desktop, Remote Web Access and VPN Access

Hi there,
I want to ask a series of questions regarding Outlook Web App, Remote Desktop, Remote Web Access and VPN access and was hoping whether you could help me. Below are my questions to ask you.
Outlook Web App - What do I need to configure in order to get my Exchange account to work with the OWA app on my iPhone? Is Office 360 required on the server that hosts Outlook Web App in our organisation? When I configure the settings and
connect I get the following message "couldn't connect - We couldn't connect to the server. Check your information and make sure it's correct." I can connect with other devices using Outlook Web App.
Remote Desktop - What do I need to configure in order to connect to my computer at work using Remote Desktop on my Windows Phone? When I configure the settings and connect I get the following message "Connection error - We couldn't connect
to the remote PC. Make sure the PC is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled. Inquiring minds may find this error code helpful: 0x204" I can connect with other devices using Remote Desktop. There are currently no
RD Server settings in the Remote Desktop app on the Windows Phone and the only way I'm to connect to my PC at work is via Remote Desktop and not to be confused with the one by Microsoft, however the app is on a trial basis and times out every 5 minutes and
can only be used once every hour unless I purchased the app for £2.99 off the App Store but would ideally like to use the Microsoft Remote Desktop app though.
Remote Web Access - What do I need to configure in order to get Remote Web Access on my Windows Phone using a URL? When I log in using a URL I get the following message "There is a problem with this Web page. Please contact the person who manages
the server" I can connect with other devices using Remote Web Access. Also how do you enable the background option for Remote Web Access? I know how to do this in Remote Desktop but not in Remote Web Access. Remote Web Access works on PCs regardless
being onsite and offsite and on my iPhone, the same issue also occurs with my Nokia 5230s regardless of whether I'm using Opera Mobile or Mini or the latest Nokia Browser.
VPN access - How do you configure VPN access on a Windows Phone using VPN? I cannot find the protocols PPTP, L2TP, SSTP and IPsec in order to configure VPN access on the Windows Phone apart from IKEv2.
Many thanks,
RocknRollTim

Any help would be much appreciated.

Questions regarding using the .monitor command to retur a animated image and we would like feedback to a designed webpage that is monitoring a 5kW windturbine:)

I'm embedding a front panel image in an existing HTML dokument. I would like to use the command .monitor in the URL together with the refresh command so the VI automatic will reload every 20 secund. This actual work, but simultaneous I want to have the possibility to refresh manually so I don't have to wait 20 sec before new values is shown in the display. Is this possible to do?
Another question: Since the real time display updates 1-2 times a secund the command .monitor is used to get a animated picture of the Real Time Display.
There are several ways to add animation on to web pages. The techniques used h
ere are the �server push� and �client pull�which makes the browser repeatedly reloads a changing inline image to provide crude animated sequences. This is not the most efficient way as this result�s in an image being re-transmitted for each frame of the animation. The command .monitor with the attribute refresh and lifespan in the URL trigger this �server push� and �client pull� techniques.
I use this automatic refresh uploading of the display so that it each time shows different values, is this called crude animation?Then I'm wondering what I'm suppose to use the command lifespan to?I can't see the use of it in my display.....?
link to the webpage so you can have a look at the display:
http://134.7.139.176/.monitor?Real%20Time%20Performance.vi&refresh=20
This is a project that I'm working together with another Norwegian friend. WE are very happy for feedback on our web page and displays go to: http://www.ece.curtin.edu.au/~peersena/ if you would like to view itThanks

Annis,
One of the other things to keep in mind is that the generation of an image does take some computing power so having the generation and the acquistion on the same machine is not always ideal. If you're using the machine that is publishing the front panel just to collect data it's not so much of an issue.
If you really want to monitor in "Real-Time" using Remote Panels (requies LabVIEW 6.1) is your best option. This posting has more information on using Remote Panels and links to some live examples:
http://exchange.ni.com/servlet/ProcessRequest?RHIVEID=101&RPAGEID=135&HOID=506500000008000000C0660000&UCATEGORY_0=_49_%24_6_&UCATEGORY_S=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_TIER_0=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_TIER_S=0&USEARCHCONTEXT_QUESTION_0=web+control&USEARCHCONTEXT_QUESTION_S=0
Remote panels makes it possible to control the application remotely as well.
With .monitor the only way I've been able to manually refresh is to "Shift+Refresh" on the browser.

Kamran

Questions regarding creation of vendor in different purchase organisation

Hi abap gurus .
i have few questions regarding data transfers .
1) while creating vendor , vendor is specific to company code and vendor can be present in different purchasing organisations within the same company code if the purchasing organisation is present at plant level .my client has vendor in different purchasing org. how the handle the above situatuion .
2) i had few error records while uploading MM01 , how to download error records , i was using lsmw with predefined programmes .
3) For few applications there are no predefined programmes , no i will have to chose either predefined BAPI or IDOCS . which is better to go with . i found that BAPI and IDOCS have same predefined structures , so what is the difference between both of them .

Hi,
1. Create a BDC program with Pur orgn as a Parameter on the selection screen
so run the same BDC program for different Put organisations so that the vendors
are created in different Pur orgns.
2. Check the Action Log in LSMW and see
3.see the doc
BAPI - BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces) are the standard SAP interfaces. They play an important role in the technical integration and in the exchange of business data between SAP components, and between SAP and non-SAP components. BAPIs enable you to integrate these components and are therefore an important part of developing integration scenarios where multiple components are connected to each other, either on a local network or on the Internet.
BAPIs allow integration at the business level, not the technical level. This provides for greater stability of the linkage and independence from the underlying communication technology.
LSMW- No ABAP effort are required for the SAP data migration. However, effort are required to map the data into the structure according to the pre-determined format as specified by the pre-written ABAP upload program of the LSMW.
The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
More and more medium-sized firms are implementing SAP solutions, and many of them have their legacy data in desktop programs. In this case, the data is exported in a format that can be read by PC spreadsheet systems. As a result, the data transfer is mere child's play: Simply enter the field names in the first line of the table, and the LSM Workbench's import routine automatically generates the input file for your conversion program.
The LSM Workbench lets you check the data for migration against the current settings of your customizing. The check is performed after the data migration, but before the update in your database.
So although it was designed for uploading of legacy data it is not restricted to this use.
We use it for mass changes, i.e. uploading new/replacement data and it is great, but there are limits on its functionality, depending on the complexity of the transaction you are trying to replicate.
The SAP transaction code is 'LSMW' for SAP version 4.6x.
Check your procedure using this Links.

I have read all the questions regarding the "Can't send photo using iMessage".

I have read all the questions regarding the "Can't send photo using iMessage". I followed everything and check everything that was in it. It's still the same. I am still not able to send a photo. It started happening last week. It was fine before that. There is no error message.
It will try to send but it will get stuck just before it sends
and the red ! will appear with the "Not Delivered" status.
When i tap on the !, it just says "This iMessage was not delived".
No other message or photo is sending as the same time as the photo.
I did reset it, I checked the email address, removed it as well. Turned it off then back on. Signed out and signed back in. Wi-Fi strength is very good. iOS is 6.0.1. I checked for updates, it is up-to-date I also checked a link http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755. It did not help at all.
What's wrong?!?!?!?!

It is not a matter of reconsidering the decision. There are unsolveable technical problems with trying to run a program such as Firefox on Blackberry OS. We would need Blackberry to distribute a tool similar to Android's NDK to run on Blackberries.

Some questions regarding CO-PA

Hello Experts,
I have some questions regarding de COPA module:
1-Where can i find wich G/L accounts are assigned to a especific condition type? Is there any transaction where i can check the g/l accounts for the condition types?
2-I heard that the condition type VPRS is statistical, can anyone explain me this concept?..wich accounts are assigned to this condition type?
3-Does anyone has a list of the most relevat transactions for COPA? especially regarding the value flows and the closing.
Thnak you for your support!
Leandro.

Hi,
a) VKOA transaction
b) try reading this one: http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/40/c52df80d1e11d2b5cf0000e82de856/frameset.htm Statistical means that the value in the CO-PA document for VPRS is also updated (truly) in other CO component. For example, revenue could be assigned truly to CO-PA segment and statistically to, let's say, cost centre. With material costs - it's the opposite.
c) most of the data is flowing to CO-PA from other modules. However, just go to the standard menu: the transactions for CO-PA are not so many.

Eli

Questions regarding Disk I/O

Hey there, I have some questions regarding disk i/o and I'm fairly new to Java.
I've got an organized 500MB file and a table like structure (represented by an array) that tells me sections (bytes) within the file. With this I'm currently retrieving blocks of data using the following approach:
// Assume id is just some arbitary int that represents an identifier.
String f = "/scratch/torum/collection.jdx";
int startByte = bytemap[id-1];
int endByte = bytemap[id];
try {
          FileInputStream stream = new FileInputStream(f);
          DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(stream);
                in.skipBytes(startByte);
          int position = collectionSize - in.available();
          // Keep looping until the end of the block.
          while(position <= endByte) {
              line = in.readLine();
              // some pocessing here
              String[]entry = line.split(" ");
              String docid = entry[1];
              int tf = Integer.parseInt(entry[2]);
              // update the current position within the file.
              position = collectionSize - in.available();
   } catch(IOException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
   }This code does EXACTLY what I want it to do but with one complication. It isn't fast enough. I see that using BufferedReader is the choice after reading:
http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/PerfTuning/
I would love to use this Class but BufferedReader doesn't have the function, "skipBytes(), which is vital to achieve what I'm trying to do. I'm also aware that I shouldn't really be using the readLine() function of the DataInputStream Class.
So could anyone suggest improvements to this code?
Thanks

Okay I've got some results and turns out DataInputStream is faster...
EDIT: I was wrong. RandomAccessFile becomes a bit faster according to my test code when the block size to read is large.
So I guess I could write two routines in my program, RAF for when the block size is larger than an arbitary value and FileInputStream for small blocks.
Here is the code:
public void useRandomAccess() {
     String line = "";
     long start = 1385592, end = 1489808;
     try {
         RandomAccessFile in = new RandomAccessFile(f, "r");
         in.seek(start);
         while(start <= end) {
          line = in.readLine();
          String[]entry = line.split(" ");
          String docid = entry[1];
          int tf = Integer.parseInt(entry[2]);
          start = in.getFilePointer();
     } catch(FileNotFoundException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
     } catch(IOException ioe) {
         ioe.printStackTrace();
public void inputStream() {
     String line = "";
     int startByte = 1385592, endByte = 1489808;
     try {
         FileInputStream stream = new FileInputStream(f);
         DataInputStream in = new DataInputStream(stream);
         in.skipBytes(startByte);
         int position = collectionSize - in.available();
         while(position <= endByte) {
          line = in.readLine();
          String[]entry = line.split(" ");
          String docid = entry[1];
          int tf = Integer.parseInt(entry[2]);
          position = collectionSize - in.available();
     } catch(IOException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
    }and the main looks like this:
   public static void main(String[]args) {
     DiskTest dt = new DiskTest();
     long start = 0;
     long end = 0;
     start = System.currentTimeMillis();
     dt.useRandomAccess();
     end = System.currentTimeMillis();
     System.out.println("Random: "+(end-start)+"ms");
     start = System.currentTimeMillis();
     dt.inputStream();
     end = System.currentTimeMillis();
     System.out.println("Stream: "+(end-start)+"ms");
    }The result:
Random: 345ms
Stream: 235ms
Hmmm not the kind of result I was hoping for... or is it something I've done wrong?

Is the latest ThinkVantage System Update safe to use?

I just reinstalled the factory version of XP onto my T60. Then I downloaded and ran the latest ThinkVantage System Update, and there were maybe 20 or 30 updates that I can install. Some of those updates require you to uninstall your current version, and others need to be installed in a certain order. Can TVSU handle all that, or should I try to install the updates manually? Someone was saying that an older version of TVSU doesn't install things in the correct order.

If I were you I would install the latest version of system update first and then run it to install available packages.

Question regarding the installation of a J2EE 6.40 Add-in

Hi all,
I would like to install a J2EE engine on a test instance of ECC 5.0 and have a few questions regarding the installation...
Do I have to use the MASTER CD to first install the J2EE engine (Support Package 0) and then apply the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
Or should be able to directly install the J2EE Add-In by using the latest support packages found on the SAP Marketplace?
Best regards,
Xavier Vermaut

Thanks Bhavik for your reply,
That's what I actually thought but I get the following problem... Here's what I wrote into my customer message... I am still waiting for an answer and would like to get this solved ASAP
Dear SAP,
We would like to install the J2EE 6.40 Add-In on our ECC 5.0 instance
(TST) but get the following error message at the very beginning of the
installation
> Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a
> J2EE Add-In installation. The installation cannot continue.
We checked the installation logs (sapinst_dev.log) and found the
following :
> Found these instances:
> sid: MGR, number: 00, name: DVEBMGS00, host: erpqs1a
> sid: TST, number: 10, name: DVEBMGS10, host: erpqs1a
Why does the installation say that it can not find any ABAP systems when
having previously found the 2 different instances running on this
server?
Would this problem be related to the fact that we have two instances on
this server?
Please find hereunder the way we performed this installation :
01) Download of the 4 different parts of SAP J2EE Engine 6.40 SP 10
     (Solaris 10 - Oracle)
     Part I   : SAPINST10_0-20000121.SAR         (Solaris 64)
     Part II : CTRLORA10_0-20000121.SAR         (Solaris 64)
     Part III : J2EERTOS10_0-20000121.SAR        (Solaris 64)
     Part IV : J2EERT10_0-10001982.SAR          (OS Independant)
02) Extract these 4 archives into /install/J2EE_640
03) Check Java Version and Environment Variables
04) Check Solaris Pre-Requisites
05) Adapt "product.xml" as specified in OSS Note 697535 (IGS)
06) Log in as 'root'
07) Set DISPLAY environment Variable
08) Move to the Installation directory
      ( /install/J2EE_640/SAPINST-CD/SAPINST/UNIX/SUNOS_64 )
09) ./sapinst
10) In the 'Welcome to Netweaver Installation' screen, select
      => Dialog Instance Finalization
Any idea how to get this solved?
Best regards,
Xavier Vermaut
