Hi Rajiv,
There is no error found here in the log file.
Does it give you an error message while installation (at 2nd last step) or is it that it just doesnt go ahead?
I believe it is taking sometime to start the server. Can you do one thing, can you just look into the management console and see which elements are running there?
I had this problem, but then i just waited for the server to start and then i restarted the sapinst.exe and it worked.
Do not start sapinst.exe untill the J2EE Server starts completely. Check it in the Management consile before you start the installation. If you restart the computer and check it after sometime, you will find all the processes running, then you can continue with the installation. I am sure this should solve your problem.
Mark the question as closed if this solves your problem and do remember to reward points if this anwser helps you solve your problem.

WAS Sneak Preview Installation problem???

Hi,
I was successful in installing the WAS sneak preview installation from sdn.but since I had problems in using sdm password for deploying webdynpro I uninstalled the entire setup of sneak preview.
Again when I tried to install sneal preview,it is stopping at 17th phase of 28 for a long time.The phase is "Load Java Database content".Neither it is giving any error in log file nor moving forward to next step for more than 2 -3 hours.
Has anybody encountered this problem earlier?
Useful answers will be suitably rewarded.
Regards,
RK

Hi,
it could very well be that your LOG volume is filled 100%. Please check your (<drive>:\sapdb\data\wrk\<SID>\)knldiag and/or knldiag.err file for LOGFULL messages.
In order to free up log, you need to make a Log backup. Prior to your first Log backup, you need to have made a Data backup.
So, if you haven't done any of the above previously, you would need to:
1. define backupmedia for both Log and Data backups
2. perform a data backup using the data backupmedium created in step 1
3. perform a log backup using the log backupmedium created in step 1
Afterwards, you could also create an Autolog backupmedium and switch on the Autologging feature, it would save the log automatically from filling to that degree.
All done conveniently using the Database Manager GUI.

Roland

NW04 SP11 preview installation problem

Hi all,
I am having problems installing the Sneak Preview NW04 SP11 Java version.
It gives we following error:

Hi everybody,
I have now found the solution.
The server i am installing on is my domain controller, and have SBS2003 (small business server 2003) installed - this should always be the domain controller...say Microsoft!
But i works if I using CMD with REGEDT32.exe and editing the registry key (SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SBCore) so that Adminsitrator have FULL acccess
Remember us edit the Control.xml file if you are using the domain account - just like phillip has described:
***Phillip says:***
In this case the relevant settings are stored in "<Location_Of_SAPINST.EXE>\ADA\control.xml", which is being copied to "<SAPINST_INSTDIR>\j2ee_wp\installdefault\" during installation.
Before i started a new installation i searched the original "control.xml" for String "LocalAdmin".
I replaced:
'name:host + "
SAP_LocalAdmin"'
with
'name:this.getDomain() + "
SAP_LocalAdmin"'
and
'name:host + "
SAP_" + this.getSID() + "_LocalAdmin"'
with
'name:this.getDomain() + "
SAP_" + this.getSID() + "_LocalAdmin"'
The installation is still running at the moment, but far behind that point where the error always came up.
For me it looks very good.
SAP says installation on a DC is not supported, which not means that it would be impossible.
Remember to edit the "control.xml" at it's original location BEFORE you start the installation.
**end Phillip**
Thats it! - now the installation is running (still runnig )

WAS 620 post -installation problem

Hi,
We have installed WAS 620/WIN2K/SAP DB 7.3.1 with both the ABAP and the J2EE stack. After that, we did the client copy & were importing support packages for basis. We applied till support package 25 successfully. While applying 26, the system restarted.
After bringing up the system, when we start SAP, all the workprocesses are in connect mode. The dev traces say:
"Try to connect (DEFAULT) on connection 0...." and nothing further. The dispatcher indicator is yellow.
We check db and found it is ok (state: WARM). No errors in knldiag too.
On executing dpmon, all workprocesses having status Run but no other information. No logon to SAP possible.
Did any of you encounter anything similar. Any directions or inputs would be most helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Siva

Siva,
Did you resolve this issue? How?
Thanks

Problems with WAS 6.40 Installation on Oracle - Phase 11 of 34

Hello,
Problems with WAS 6.40 Installation on Oracle (Phase 11 of 34)
with the installation of the Web Application server 6,40 SR1 on a Oracle server I get in phase 11 of 34 (Create Oracle Database) the following error-message:
CJS-00084 - SQL statement or script failed. Diagnosis: Error message: ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact.
error while loading shared library: libodm9.so : cannot open shared object file: No such file or dirctory.
Best Reagrds,
Ralf Steffens

hi Ralf
i've found one composite note for Oracle <a href="https://websmp203.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_FRAME=CONTAINER&_OBJECT=011000358700001366932002">505630</a>
hope this solves...
Symptom
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
Brbackup, brarchive, brrestore or brconnect may terminate with errors similar to the following:
BR301E SQL error -12547 at location BrDbConnect-1
BR301E SQL error -12547 at location dbf_info_get-1
Sapdba returns the following error, for example:
SAPDBA: ORACLE error -12547 occurred while checking instance status!
The R/3 work processes or R3trans return the following error at Connect:
C *** ERROR => CONNECT failed with sql error '12547'
Other terms
TNS-12547, TNS-00517
Reason and Prerequisites
As part of the Net8 Connect, a program such as the R/3 kernel, R3trans, svrmgrl, sqlplus or ODMA establishes a connection to the Oracle database. If the connection terminates due to problems at the server end, it can result in ORA-12547.
Additional information for the error is often available in sqlnet.log. In many cases, other messages that are not reported by all tools precede ORA-12547. If ORA-12547 occurs when the ODMA accesses the old Oracle-Home during a database upgrade, for example, it may make sense to temporarily restart ORACLE_HOME on the old Oracle-Home for test purposes and then to execute sqlplus or svrmgrl.
Even if sapdba or the BR tools terminate with an ORA-12547 when calling sqlplus or svrmgrl recursively, you should, for test purposes, call sqlplus or svrmgrl manually with the operating system user that was used.
Hopefully, a more informative error message will appear in addition to ORA-12547, for example:
ld.so.1: oracleC11: fatal: relocation error: file
 /oracle/C11/817_64/libx8.so: symbol ksunsga_:
 referenced symbol not found
If you find accompanying error messages of this type, start a note search with the corresponding search terms since we are often aware of the problem and a solution may already be available. If you do not find any significant error messages or a suitable note, check the following possible causes for ORA-12547:
1. UNIX: Incorrectly linked Oracle tools
2. UNIX: Problems with XPG4 compliance and s-bit
3. Too many requests to the listener at the same time
4. HP-UX, Oracle 8.1: Missing OS patch
5. Use of CRYPTO parameters in sqlnet.ora
6. AIX: I/O Async is deactivated
7. Resource problems
8. The CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LISTENER parameter in listener.ora is too low
9. Activated Oracle trace
10. UNIX: Incorrect oracle executable authorization
11. SOLARIS: LD_LIBRARY_PATH set when you call ODMA
12. AIX: Problem with post/wait kernel enhancement
13. UNIX: Problems with the libobk library
14. SOLARIS: Incorrect search sequence in the path variable
15. UNIX: Conflicts between 32-bit and 64-bit files
Solution
1. Relink the Oracle software as ora<sid> with
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
make -f ins_rdbms.mk install
 or
relink all
1. See Note 88884.
2. If individual work processes terminate with ORA-12547 when you start an R/3 instance, See Note 131561.
3. See Note 399610.
4. You can set security parameters that begin with SQLNET.CRYPTO_ in sqlnet.ora as part of the Advanced Security Option. Oracle releases < 8.1.7 cannot process these parameters correctly and result in ORA-12547. In this case, delete these types of parameters from sqlnet.ora.
5. If I/O is deactivated on AIX Async, the Net8 Connect fails with ORA-12547. In this case, activate I/O Async by using smitty.
6. Insufficient resources such as available memory on the database server can cause ORA-12547. For more information, see 384839.
7. In individual cases, it may make sense to increase the CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LISTENER parameter in listener.ora (for example, by 5 seconds, so from 10 to 15). Although a value of 10 seconds should usually be sufficient to establish a connection.
8. Delete the log files written by the Oracle trace in accordance with Note 92537.
9. Check to see whether the executable in $ORACLE_HOME/bin has the "rwsr-s--x" authorizations and the ora<sid> owner and correct this if necessary.
10. If you call ODMA on SOLARIS as part of a database upgrade and if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set explicitly (on the lib directory of the target release), calling the old Oracle software through ODMA may fail with ORA-12547. If you use the old ORACLE_HOME to list sqlplus or svrmgrl, you get the following error:
ld.so.1: oracle<sid>: fatal: relocation error:
 file /oracle/<sid>/817_64/libx8.so: symbol ksunsga_:
 referenced symbol not found
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 In this case, permanently delete LD_LIBRARY_PATH from the environment. This does not have any negative effects since the libraries are automatically found in the correct directories as of Oracle 8.1.
 If problems occur with the post/wait extension on AIX, the following type of errors will be displayed:
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program oracleC11 because of the
following errors:
 0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for oracle because:
 0509-136 Symbol pw_post (number 2524) is not exported
 from dependent module /unix.
 0509-136 Symbol pw_wait (number 2525) is not exported
 from dependent module /unix.
 0509-136 Symbol pw_config (number 2526) is not exported
 from dependent module /unix.
 0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
 'dump -Tv' command.
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
1. If the libobk library was created incorrectly, the following type of errors may occur:
/oracle/C11/817_64/bin/oracle: /sbin/loader:
 Fatal Error: Cannot map library libobk.so
/usr/lib/pa20_64/dld.sl: Unable to find library
 '/oracle/C11/lib64/libobk.sl
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program oracleC11 because of the
 following errors:
0509-150 Dependent module /oracle/C11/817_64/lib/libobk.a(shr.o)
 could not be loaded.
0509-152 Member shr.o is not found in archive
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 Check to see whether libobk exists and, if it is a link, that it points to a valid object. Note 142635 contains more information about this. The libobk link may point to this if a libsbtsh8.* file exists in the Oracle library directory. If you are using a third-party Backint tool, contact the relevant supplier, since libobk often has to point to a backint-specific library.
1. If an error such as
ld.so.1: ./svrmgrl: fatal: libucb.so.1: open failed:
 No such file or directory
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 occurs, the PATH has probably been set incorrectly. For more information, see Note 44361.
1. If an error such as
ld.so.1: oracle<sid>: fatal: <library> wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
 concerning "wrong ELF class" occurs, check whether the <library> mistakenly has a different bit size than the tool that was called. You can determine this using
file <library>
file <tool>
 All the files involved must uniformly be either 32-bit or 64-bit.

Arunkumar

Installation problem | Unable to contact Adobe (Was: Go to hell, Adobe!)

SAP EP 6.0 Installation Problems -- Please Help

Hi,
I am new to the SAP EP Technology (any SAP for that matter) - I figured out that downloading the EP Sneak Preview would be a good idea to learn it.
So I downloaded the WAS (Java 6.4) and installed it without any problems. The JRE is working fine and registered.
I then tried to install the EP 6 Sneak Preview itself and that's when I was made to stop by this error.
"SAPInst could not find any SAP J2EE instances that match the Portal Platform requirements. Install the SAP J2EE 6.40 according to the Portal PAM requirements, and run the portal installation again."
I have tried quite a few things but nothing seems to work. Anyone who had this problem and gotten out of it...please pass on your knowledge.
Thanks...

Hi Balaji,
I have not encountered this problem so perhaps you could provide some more details.
After the installation of the WAS6.40 how are you sure that it is operational? In the MMC that is installed is the server showing up green in the console? What parameters are you providing the to the Portal installation?
Are you using the Sneak preview installation guide as reference?
Regards
Daniel

Adobe Edge Preview installation error

I installed Adobe Creative Suite 6 through Adobe Creative Cloud. All of the applications seemed to install correctly, except Adobe Edge Preview, for which the following message was given.
Installation completed though some optional components failed to install correctly. More details.
The details page showed the following error.
ERROR: DW050: - DirectX: Install failed
Installation retry also failed and gave the same error.
What is the solution to fixing this error?

Thanks. The link you provided is to a PPT and WMA presentation about the DirectX 11 technology update. I downloaded http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35, instead, installed it, and then ran the installation retry in Adobe Application Manager. Installation worked. Success.
To all, your prompt responses were much appreciated. Please consider this problem resolved.

1. Make sure that "Camera Raw" appears exactly once in Photoshop's "About Plug-in" menu. If it appears zero times, you did not install the plug-in in a correct location. The correct location is shown below. If it appears more than one time, you have multiple copies of the plug-in installed.
The new location for Adobe Camera Raw 3.x and 4.x is:
>Mac: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-ins/CS2/File Formats/
b Note: that the Library folder refered to above is that found at root level and NOT the User/Library folder.
>Win: \Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-ins\CS2\File Formats\
2. If "Camera Raw" appears exactly once in the "About Plug-in" menu, then pick that item and make sure the Camera Raw about box shows version 3.1 or higher. If not, you have the wrong version of Camera Raw installed.
3. Run Bridge and pick "Camera Raw Preferences..." from the Bridge(Mac) or Edit(Win) menu. If the command is grayed out, then you don't have Camera Raw installed in the correct place. If the Camera Raw preferences dialog does not have "Version 3.1 or higher" in the title bar, you have the wrong version of Camera Raw installed.
If after you verify that that 1, 2 and 3 are correct, and you are still having problems (e.g. generic raw image icons in lieu of thumbnail previews), then next step is to purge the Adobe Bridge cache for any folders you are having problems with. The command to use is:
"Tools->Cache->Purge Cache for this Folder".

Understood guys. But let me make a few points.
1. Clearly I'm not the only one who had this problem. In fact, I wasn't the first person in this THREAD to have the problem.
2. I'm fairly computer savvy, and have worked with Photoshop for several years.
3. Yes, it does say c: in point 3, but I find it odd that in point 4 it does say Program Files/.... A very strange way to write it. Also, the c: drive is the default installation drive, so it's not idiocy for someone to assume that the file would be located on the same drive as you selected for installation.
4. This is not about technically right or wrong. I never said that the instructions were wrong. I merely was trying to make a suggestion that would help people avoid the same trap I fell into. Was it my mistake? Yes. Would my clarifying suggestion perhaps help others avoid making the mistake I did. I would hope so. Also, as someone else suggested in this thread, Adobe SHOULD have written an installation program for the ACR 3.1 upgrade that did the placing automatically. After all, EVERYONE knew that ACR3.1 would be released shortly after the release for CS2...in fact Mr. Knoll himself was quoted in other forums about when D2X compatibility would actually happen.
5. The purpose of these forums is to be helpful to other users--not to be patronizing or rude. I'm a big Photoshop fan, and a loyal customer. I'm also in the service industry, and I would bet that customer service experts would raise an eyebrow or two about the tone contained in certain messages in this thread, including from an Adobe employee.
Just my two cents. Flame away if you must. But you might want to take a look at what I actually suggested in my last message before lighting up the torch.

Somehow Windows 10 preview installer doesn't recognize bootcamp partition/disk which is in GPT.

This problem became tricky now.
I already searched this support communities and found many similar questions.
But most of them were that the disk is in GPT but Windows expected MBR.
There is another case where Windows installer expects GPT but the disk is in MBR.
My case is different.
The Disk Utility says the disk is in GPT. (GUID Partition Table.)
And I used Bootcamp Assistant to partition the disk.
However, the Windows 10 Technical Preview installer thinks that it's in MBR. (yes. It's for 64bit.)
So, it looks to me that Windows installer somehow obtain the disk partition information wrongly.
Are there any people who were successful in installing Windows 10 Technical Preview?
<Fig.1> Disk Utility shows that it has GPT.
<Fig.2> windows installer thinks that it's in MBR, although it's actually in GPT.
Is there any

Yes. It looks to be so. I've also read somewhere at MSDN site : GPT can contain MBR.
However, still it looks to me that its either/both Apple and MS implementation issue.Disk Utility says it's in GPT, but Windows installer doesn't think so.
I also tried DISKPART on windows to see if what partition type it thought, but it didn't give me such information.
What is even more interesting was VirtualBox. I decided to install on VirtualBox, and if "Enable EFI" option is on, the x64 version of Win 10 TP version couldn't be installed. I had to turn it off. So, according to MS, Win 10 for x64 is GPT-only. (I read so.. maybe I'm wrong.) but the "Enable EFI" mode should be turned off. Anyway, I decided to install on VM although it's slow for now.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Installation Problem on Win8

Hello all
I need your help for troubleshooting an installation problem on a Win8 (x64) client. There is already JavaJRE installed, but we wanted to install some other versions, too. But it didn't work. So we tried to unistall to curently version. This was running badly. Now there entry is removed from windows software, but the software is still on the system. Always if we try to install any java, we get a failure message with no error discription. So we looked for some installation logs, but I can't find the problem. Can you have a look? What can I do?
Thank you guys for your support.

Xp_logininfo Installation problem

Hello gurus,
I'm facing the same problem as described in this link:
Re: xp_logininfo "Installation problem on windows 2003 with Sql 2005"
the error I get is similiar:
The below message comes from executing the command master..xp_logininfo '<domain>\<user> ' Msg 15404, Level 16, State 11, Procedure xp_logininfo, Line 62 Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user '<domain>\<user> ', error code 0x534. The statement has been terminated
but I just don't get how to solve it.
-I've tried to use the profiler but didn't find any information that will help me to solve.
-One of the guys wrote to add "logon rights" to the user ... what does it mean ?
Please advice,
Dimitry Haritonov

Hi sven,
Thank you very much for the quick and direct answer.
The problem was that the user that runs the SQL SERVER service didn't have authorization to retrieve information from active directory.
I've changed the service user, run the sapinst again, and after it succeeded I've returned the previous user.
Best regards,
Dimitry Haritonov

Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
(Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w, deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
and
then
I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)" from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
The values I filled for
1) Global Database Name : orcl
2) System Identifier : orcl
3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
Username : sys/ as sysdba
Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

PPStream installation problem on Windows 7

I just recently install bootcamp and use bootcamp to install windows 7 pro. Everything seems fine until i download PPStream and install it. The installation process was smooth just like usual. However, when it finishes installing, it asked me if i wanna open the PPStream. and i said yes. guess what, nothing happened, then the PPStream icon on desktop is not a normal app icon, it's like a unknown file icon with the reflash arrow on the bottom right corner.
I thought it might be the installation problem, then i went into Control Panel and uninstall the app, and reinstall PPStream, the same thing happened, and every time i click the PPStream icon on desktop, windows explorer stopped working. Anyone knows what's going on or got experience like this before? i will appreciate for any input. thanks

很简单。你子安装的过程中。看一下安装的目录。默认是安装在苹果的系统盘里的。而这个盘是只读的。所以管理器会崩溃。只要改到c盘的目录就可以了。
very easy, reinstall pps. when install pps directory change e : drive ---- to c: drive ... you area set to watch
