Unable to start ICM

Question

Hi Experts,
I am unable to start the ICM, whenever I start the SAP ABAP Instance, the below logs are generated in dev_icm
I also tried changing the services port from 8000 to 8001, but still no luck.
Can someone help me on this.

Answer 1

Hi,
I have the same errors on my production ECC6 EHP4 system where the ICM runs perfectly :
[Thr 9492] *** WARNING => Connection request from (4/5/0) to host: 10.26.24.44, service: 1090 failed (NIECONN_REFUSED)
I think this problem is generated by the SAP standard entry HME_CONTENT  in transaction OAC0 (Content Repositories)
Content Rep.    HME_CONTENT
Description     TEST CONTENT
Document Area
Storage type
Protocol
Version no.     0045   Content Server version 4.5
HTTP server     P25214:1090
HTTP Script     contentserver/contentserver.dll
From my understanding, SAP forgot to remove this test entry before shipping to customers...
This an explantion of the error messages but not an explanation of the non starting ICM...
