SAPINST gui timeout in ECC 6.0 installation in AIX

Hello.
We are starting an installation of ERP2005 SR2 with AIX 5.3.
When we start for the first time sapinst, I don't get the welcome screen, although DISPLAY variable is correct. It does not work neither if I try a remote installation.
# ./sapinst
[==============================] - extracting... done!
Starting GuiServer using:
/usr/java14_64/jre/bin/java -cp /tmp/sapinst_exe.245952.1170727057/JAR/instgui.jar:/tmp/sapinst_exe.245952.1170727057/JAR/inqmyxml.jar -Djava.security.egd=file
:/dev/urandom SDTServer config=jar:sdtserver.xml guiport=21212 sapinsthost=localhost sapinstport=21200 guistart=true
load resource pool /dvd/master/IM_AIX_PPC64/resourcepool.xml
guiengine: no GUI connected; waiting for a connection on host rhdesa, port 21200 to continue with the installation
Then, nothing happens until a timeout message appears.
java -version is 1.4.2 SR7, according to install guide; AIX version is 5.3, I think all other prerrequisites (C++ version...) are fullfilled.
Any idea?
Regards

Dear,
Please check java version (pre requisite) it should be 1.4.2 (64 Bits), if not then download correct verion and update through smitty and uninstall sap (not db2) thru sapinst and increase the space of /tmp by command
#chfs -a size=+4G /tmp
also remove logs from /tmp i.e. sapinst* and also remove db2<sid> dir from /db2 and change permission of /db2 750 .
also check export like LIBPATH, SAPINST, JAVA_HOME etc
now go to master DVD (either on copied) and give command where sapinst is there
#./sapinst SAPINST_SKIP_ERRORSTEP=true
every thing should go fine.
thanks

The SAPinst GUI could not be started because a Java Runtime Environment

Hi all,
I AM TRYING TO INSTALL THE ECC 6.0 ON HPUX AND WHILE STARTING SAPINST GETTING THIS ERROR:
The SAPinst GUI could not be started because a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) could not be found.
Either the JRE is not installed correctly or the environment variable SAPINST_JRE_HOME is not set to the JRE installation home.
Be aware the SAPinst server is still running! You need to start SAPinst GUI standalone on this or another host as described in the installation guide.

Can you do a
java -version
as root?
Did you install the Java runtime from http://www.hp.com/go/java for your platform?

A SAPinst GUI question - can't connect to port 21212

Hello,
I'm trying to install a BW 3.0B system 'BSB' using Linux/Oracle on 32-bit Intel hardware. The Linux is Suse Linux Enterprise Server 9 (SLES9). The Oracle is 9.2.
I was able to see the 1st SAP Installation GUI screen. The two fields on the screen appeared as follows:
Installation Host: localhost
Port: 21212
But when I clicked the 'OK' button, nothing happened. The screen and the two fields remained the same. The messages from the UNIX install session, on two attempts using root id, are attached. There is nothing in the sapinst.log file in the install directory /INSTBW30B/CI. My Linux Administrator thought the SAPinst listener is not working.
The SAPinst I used is version 1.0, from a SAP BW 3.0B Installation CD, published in 2002.
Please advise. Thanks.
Regards,
Jack Wu

Hello Daniel,
Thanks for the quick reply. The following are the whole story:
1. When I started, I followed the SAP "BW 3.0B Installation Guide on UNIX/Oracle" and SAP note 580772. After getting the error message "Floating point exception", I added the missing environment variable LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 according SAP note 797084.
2. Then I tried again:
lsapd002:/INSTBW30B/CI # /sapcd/KERBW30B/SAPINST/UNIX/LINUX_32/INSTALL
This time I got different error messages:
ERROR 2005-10-18 10:50:23 [syuxcnodut.cpp:589]
 CSyNodeUtils::isExistingWithType(iastring, bool, ISyNode::eNodeType)
FSL-02013 Unable to access file /INSTBW30B/CI/keydb.1.xml: Success.
ERROR 2005-10-18 10:50:24 [iaxxcsihlp.hpp:344]
 main()
FCO-00034 An error occurred during the installation. Problem: caught an unexpected exception.
The error message FSL-02013 is confusing. Was it successful or not? It appears not. There is a keydb.xml in the installation directory /INSTBW30B/CI. But for unknown reason, sapinst couldn't copy it to create keydb.1.xml. Also, I'm not sure whether FSL-02013 caused FCO-00034, or the two messages are not related?
3. I looked into the "SAPinst Troubleshooting Guide v 1.20 5/27/2002", found a symptom on p.11, followed the solution part 1:
lsapd002:/INSTBW30B/CI # ./sapinst SAPINST_NO_GUISTART=true
I got the same error messages as in Step 2.
4. I tried to fool the installer by doing manually:
lsapd002:/INSTBW30B/CI # cp -p keydb.xml keydb.1.xml
5. Then tried the installation again
lsapd002:/INSTBW30B/CI # ./sapinst
I got similar, but not identical error messages
ERROR 2005-10-18 16:38:18 [syuxcnodut.cpp:589]
 CSyNodeUtils::isExistingWithType(iastring, bool, ISyNode::eNodeType)
FSL-02013 Unable to access file /INSTBW30B/CI/keydb.2.xml: Success.
ERROR 2005-10-18 16:38:18 [iaxxcsihlp.hpp:344]
 main()
FCO-00034 An error occurred during the installation. Problem: caught an unexpected exception.
Please notice that the FSL-02013 complains about keydb.2.xml this time.
6. Then I gave up on solution part 1 in the "SAPinst Troubleshooting Guide" and continued with solution part 2, which is to run the shell script startinstgui.sh. After having difficulty with port 21212, I posted the question in the SDN Forum on 10/19/2005.
According to your reply, startinstgui.sh is just running the GUI which isn't really the installation. So I still need to resolve the errors with sapinst, i.e. FSL-02013 and FCO-00034. Any suggestion?
Regards,

SAP JVM switch SAPINST GUI not launching

Hi All,
I have performed SAP JVM switch in all portal servers. One of the server is giving issue. I is not launching sapinst GUI screen. There was 2 JDK versions installed j2sdk1.4.2_13 and j2sdk1.4.2_29. I keep tried changing j2sdk1.4.2_29 in some properties file besides java home is pointing to j2sdk1.4.2_29. I also changed SAPINST_JRE_HOME property in environment variables with j2sdk1.4.2_29 to be in sync. Now below log is showing j2sdk1.4.2_29 but it is still not launching sapinst gui. Please help.

Thanks,

very true Reagan.
Kavitha, you just need to make sure that the instance profile has the right details.
 SAPJVM_VERSION. Enter the new version of the SAP JVM e.g.:
 SAPJVM_VERSION = 4.1.028
 and
 jstartup/vm/home = <location of the new jdk>
 for example:
 jstartup/vm/home = /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/jvm/hpia64/
 sapjvm_6.1.028
After the change, delete following files (they will be recreated after the j2ee restart):
/usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/j2ee/cluster/instance.properties.vmprop
/usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/SDM/program/config/sdm_jstartup.properties.vmprop
Now do a complete cluster restart.

Error The SAPinst GUI

Hi,
I downloaded the trail version of SAPNW2004s trying to run the SAPinst.exe file
i am getting the fallowing error.
The SAPinst GUI could not be started because a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) could not be found.
any body please give me some solution to this prob. thanks in advance.
Thanks
kiran.B

You should install Java Runtime Environment (JRE) first. You can download from http://java.sun.com.
After installing JRE, you have to set JAVA_HOME=C:\directory\where\java\is\installed.
You can do it by right click on My Computer - Properties. Choose Advanced Tab - Environment Vaiables.
On System variables, click New
After that fill Variable Name with JAVA_HOME and fill Variable value =C:\directory\where\java\is\installed
And then you can start SAPinst GUI again. Hope that can help you.

SAP GUI timeout setting

Hi,
How is the SAP GUI timeout setting done?
Thank you.

Hi Lammie,
Strange. If that's happening, then definitely there should be some user-specific settings somewhere. Or maybe it has something to do with the profiles in RZ10. I don't know if it's possible but maybe the profiles can be associated with users and in your case, different ones are associated to your user and your colleagues's users.
Best regards,
Akshat

Sapinst login timeout during installation of NetWeaver 2004s

I used an other port but I got the same error. The only thing which helps is a reboot of the server.
The operating system is LINUX.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Hi Ines,
I think you're missing the DISPLAY environment variable.
set DISPLAY <IP_of_your_pc>:0.0
make sure your Xserver is up and running.
That should solve your problem
