SR3 installation on solaris10 - unable to open file error

Hi Guru's
I am installing Netweaver 7.0 system BI, ECC ,Portal on solaris 10 and oracle 10g database. I am using SR3 installation Master for solaris sparc 64. During installation i come across errors such as 'Error : SP2-0310 unable to open ora_query3_tmp1_1.sql" .When i check in the 'sapinst' directory i see that this file has only read permssions. When i change the permission to full and rerun sapinst, again the same error appears. When i check the permission for this file, it is again in read only mode.
What is happening is, sapinst creates this file with rw-rr permission each and every time i run sapinst. i set the umask of the root user from which iam running the install to '000', but still the same error. root user is part of sapinst group. i checked all possibilities but couldn't get rid of this error. Seems like a bug in SR3 for solaris.
Has anyone come across this error before. If so is there any fix for this.
Would award points for whoever come with solution to this.
Moses

You can circumvent that problem if you don´t use "/tmp" as installation directory but a different directory. I always do a (as root)
mkdir /install
cd /install
<path-to-sapinst>/sapinst
This will also make things easier since you don´t have to step deeply into nested directory structures...

How to store SP2-0310: unable to open file errors in log file

We are using oracle 10g on Linux platform.
When we send scripts to the clients, then we also send a control file that executes all the sql files e.g.
control.sql
SPOOL test.log
SELECT 'Start of Control File at:'||systimestamp from dual;
SPOOL OFF
@./dbscripts/00_insert_scripts.sql
SPOOL test.log APPEND
SELECT 'End of Control File at:'||systimestamp from dual;
SPOOL OFFThe scripts are executed from SqlPlusW only by typing @control.sql
The problem is that when SP2-0310: unable to open file error comes, it appears on the screen only. It does not go in the test.log file. Is there any way to store these errors in a file from SQLPlusW.
Thanks.

try mentioning full path....
try
@<fully qualified path>/00_insert_scripts.sql
also check if the file has necessary permission
ls -l <fully qualified path>/00_insert_scripts.sql

"Unable to open file" error when running system report in HFM

I've installed and configured EPM System 11.1.1.2 for HFM and I've created sample application COMMA.

For the benefit of anyone who experiences this error in IIS7, the IUSR_xxx user no longer exists. You must grant permissions to "IIS APPPOOL\hfmAppPool" instead (select the local machine as the "Location" if Windows Explorer complains).
Similarly, for the benefit of those who get the error in HFM 11.1.2.1, security must be applied to the Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\product\FinancialManagement\Web folder.

What steps did you use to add the Replicat? Can you list those commands out.

Unable to open file -- error message stating file saved in 10.0

I recently saved a file in InDesign CC and then upon returning from vacation (NO changes to machine/software), received an error message stating that the file was saved in a newer version! 10.0 to be exact. Installed version is 9.2.2 x64

Thanks Peter. Don’t ask me how --- but you were right!
Thanks.

HP Pavilion Laptop: Unable to open files, error message and "Recovery" drive appeared

My fairly new HP Pavilion AR5B1425 laptop suddenly displays a big red x and an error message "documents.library-ms (or whatever file I'm trying to access) is no longer working" and is displaying a "recovery" drive listed as "D." My kids were using my computer, and hubby thinks they inadvertently reset my hard drive or something. Any ideas?

Unable To Open File.......... The system cannot find the file specified

hi all.
First time poster.
i have a windows VM running on my macbook...
have had no troubles for the last 2 months using hourly...
have just restarted the mac, and have come up with the unable to open file error...
i'm confused (extremely new to mac)
is there anything i need / can do to fix? (had a heap of stuff i needed on the windows VM)
thanks

Welcome to the Community,
I can't tell you what was causing this, but according to the support bundle you provided, three of the required .vmdk files are missing (Virtual Disk-s001.vmdk, Virtual Disk-s002.vmdk, and Virtual Disk-s003.vmdk). These files however still existed when you used the VM at "2015-05-23T12:29:04.017+10:00" (see vmware.log).
Since the VM is running on a snapshot and the base .vmdk files have a time stamp of April, 14th, you should be able to recover these three files from a recent backup (assuming you are regularly backing up your system). You may also want to check whether there's a lost+found folder on your system which contains the files!?

I am really struck with the installation any help will be highly appreciated.
best regards,
Zeeshan

Hi:
It seemed to me that you put the wrong directory or drive when started the installation. It shows "error message: No such file or directory" when trying to locate the files.
You can try to verify your inputs during first phase of the installation.
Hope this helps!

Unsolved: unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document

I'm trying to open a presentation I made some time ago, it is a .key file I used to open without any problems. Now the message appears:
"Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document".
I tried the solution described here, but it didn'd work: i change extension to .zip, unzip it and there is no index file. There are only pictures from the presentation in .tiff
I also sent the file to my friends and they had the same problem opening it. It's very strange, I've successfully opened it before. And the problem is only with THIS file!
Please help me out!

Have you tried to create a new Keynote Presentation? Do you have another previously saved Keynote file you can try to open? These will make sure it is a problem with this specific presentation and not the whole program.
Try to delete the Keynote Preferences. They are located in the folder Macintosh HD>Users>your username>Library>Preferences and titled com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist.
Your profile shows that you are still on Mc OS 10.6.6, is that true? You might try to update to 10.6.7 as I believe that there was a font issue fixed in this update (I don't know for sure since I am still on 10.5.8).
Try those and report back and we will see what we can come up with.

Error 'Unable to open file' when downloading SAP Query to Excel

Hi all
I'm running a SAP Query which is set to download straight to a spreadsheet (Pivot Table / Microsoft Excel). Intermittently it does not work - apparently at random (at least, I've can't recreate the error at will).
It does one of the following:
- Works ok, and creates the pivot table
- Gives an Excel error message 'Unable to open file', then returns to the 'save the data in a spreadsheet' popup when enter is pressed on the error.
- Does not issue error message, just goes to the 'save the data in a spreadsheet' popup.
In the last two cases, the excel pivot table sheet is not created.
Has anyone seen anything similar, or have any idea as to what is causing the problem?
Any help gratefully received!
Not urgent as I've found a way round - further testing seems to show that I don't get the error is Excel is already open - but in the past I've run many SAP query downloads without needing to open Excel first. I suppose it's possible that this is just something to do with the Excel setup at the user site

Hi,
Ensure that file name with same name and in same path should not be open while saving the data.

You could try Videora (http://www.videora.com/) - the downside here is that they have specific versions for specific phones, and sometimes it will makea file that plays perfectly in the desired phone but can't be shared to other models. The don't show a version for the N79, but try the N96 one because the N96 is the most similar OS to yours that they offer.

URGENT - Error "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document" - and there is no index file (so the usually suggested solution doesn't work)

Hi there,
As you see in the heading, I am getting the error "Unable to open file because it isn't a valid Keynote document". There has been a number of threads on this and there seems to be a usual work around that works in many cases, by changing the file extension to .zip and then looking for the index file and making some more extension changes...unfortunately, in my case (and it also happened to others), there is no index file, so the usually suggested solution doesn't work...Can someone please help? I am working on a tight deadline and would like to try and recover the file.
Thanks a lot in advance.

PS: any other presentation opens fine in Keynote (09)

Have you tried to create a new Keynote Presentation? Do you have another previously saved Keynote file you can try to open? These will make sure it is a problem with this specific presentation and not the whole program.
Try to delete the Keynote Preferences. They are located in the folder Macintosh HD>Users>your username>Library>Preferences and titled com.apple.iWork.Keynote.plist.
Your profile shows that you are still on Mc OS 10.6.6, is that true? You might try to update to 10.6.7 as I believe that there was a font issue fixed in this update (I don't know for sure since I am still on 10.5.8).
Try those and report back and we will see what we can come up with.
