SAPinst error for EP7 install

Question

Hello All,
I am having problem with installing EP7. Our OS is version V5R4M5. I've applied ISERPACK8 as suggested in the installation guide and OSS notes. However, I am getting an error soon after starting SAPinst in the Windows host.
Erorr message "Error initializing SAPinst for iSeries: Error during authentication. Detailed message is: "sendTMKMessage: could not send message, no connection available" Exit status of child: 1"
I've tried to set system variable JAVA_HOME to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_06 and SAPINST_JRE_HOME to C:\j2sdk1.4.2_06\jre but it stops with the same error.
During the preparation steps to install TMKSVR from the Windows host, there was another issue while running setup for TMKSVR. There error message was "an error occurred while creating TMKSVR instance no.0 (details: 550-error occurred on command TMKSVR00/CRTTMKSVR INSTNO(0) FORCE(*YES)".
The issue seemed to be related to the setup function to transfer and extract TMKSVR.SAR iSeries. We got around that issue through manual steps listed in the TMKSVR install guide while includes transferring the TMKSVR.SAVF file and restoring some objects.
Have anyone come across such error? Looking forward to advise to overcome this issue.
Much thanks in advance.
Regards,
Wi Tanto

Hello,
I had the same problem too, I found an error in the spool of the job DISPATCH (sorry but is spanish)
Causa . . . . . : No se encontró el objeto DISPATCH en la biblioteca
TMKSVR00 tipo *DTAARA. No es correcto el nombre de objeto, el nombre de
biblioteca o el tipo de objeto. Si no está especificado el nombre de
biblioteca, el objeto puede estar en una biblioteca que no está contenida
la lista de bibliotecas. Recuperación . : Corrija el nombre de objeto,
nombre de biblioteca o el tipo de objeto. Si no estaba especificado el
nombre de biblioteca, especifique el nombre de biblioteca y vuelva a
intentar la petición.
ahora lo quiero en ingles
seems it can not find the object DISPATCH in TMKSVR00 type *DATAARA.
Any Idea?
Thanks in advance.
