Web AS 6.40 sneak preview installation hangs

I try to install Web AS 6.40 sneak preview on My Windows XP machine. However, the installer hangs on this step:
"MaxDB Database Internal Installation (post processing)"
I have checked sapinst.log, sapinst_dev.log and XCMDOUT.log. There is no error message regarding MaxDB in it.
Am I missing something? Is there other place that I need to check?
I am running Windows XP Professional SP1. My machine has 1 GB of RAM and it has a Pentium M 1.6 GHZ CPU.
Thanks,
Alvin Ma

I waited for about 15 hours, and still no activity..
Apart from RAM , I have no issues in other front and there is no log activity for 14 1/2 hours.
RAM = 512 MB
Windows Service Pack 4
Internet Explorer 6
NTFS File System - Yes
J2SE SDK 1.4.2_03
Hard disk space = 15 GB
I increased the paging size to 1024 MB
Any thoughts, before I get way frustrated....
I must also add that, I am facing all the issues as indicated in the above posts and the issues are a perfect match.
If there is any more details that I need to add here, please let me know.
Regards,
Subramanian V.
P.S.  I have just restarted it and I plan to wait for some time as well

  • Netweaver Sneak Preview Installation hangs at phase 18 of 29

    Downloaded Sneak Preview SAP Netweaver 04 Java edition file 1:NW04SneakPrevJavaSP11.part1.rar and file 2: NW04SneakPrevJavaSP11.part2.rar. Extracted into a directory and started installation using SAPInst.cmd.
    Installation went thru fine till phase 17 and in phase 18 it is taking for ever to complete. Also in the status bar it shows EP_LOCK_APPLS loaded (1 rows). It has been in this phase 18 for more than 3 hours.
    Any help is suggested.
    thanks

    Hi Chess,
    I have also faced this problem several times very recently also.         
    This is mainly because of registry cleanup problems.Do as follows :-
    1)goto start -> run -> type regedit.
    2)Serach the entire registry for sapdb,maxdb,xserver instances and entries.
    3)Delete all the nodes of the above sapdb,maxdb & xserver.
    4)Only caution is if the left hand frame of the registry shows any environment values of sapdb,maxdb and xserver don't delete that particular node.
    5)After all deletion double-check one more time in the registry and reboot your machine and start a afresh instaallation.During afresh installation the installation software should ask you for DB buffer cache size.If you get that you are sure that your registry is totally cleaned and fresh and definitely the installation will go through.
    Hope it helps.
    All the best.

  • Web AS 6.40 Sneak Preview: Problems with monitoring Database with SQL Studi

    Hello!
    I'm new with SAP and SAP Web AS, and I installed the SAP Web AS 6.40 Sneak Preview recently. I'm exercizing with the tutorials, and in the Tutorial "Car rental Application", a "QCR_RESERVATION" database is created and deployed.
    The deployment worked fine, but I'm having problems accessing the SAP DB with SQL Studio.
    At first, I didn't find SQL studio in my SAP installation, so I installed it afterwards. I now tried to log on with the data mentioned in the tutorial (localhost, C11, SAPC11DB and "sap"), and got the error "Database not running (-709)". Looking at the SAP Management Console, I found a database with the name "J2E", so I tried this one.
    But now the problem is, that with user SAPJ2EDB and password "sap", I get the error "(-4008) Unknown username and password", and the same error with the combination "control", "control".
    What is my mistake? Could anybody give me a hint? Maybe there is something wrong with my Web AS 6.40 Sneak Preview Installation? I don't remember having changed any settings during installation ...
    Thank you in advance
    Bärbel Wolf

    Dale, thank you very much.
    Your hint really is useful, I know myself, I'd most probably need unlocking my admin user soon. )
    But nevertheless, I'm still looking for the right password for the database user "SAPJ2EDB".
    As I'm encountering problems with the "Quick Car Reservation" tutorial (the entity bean seems unable to access the database, too), I'd like to check the QCR_RESERVATION database with my SQL Studio. Maybe there's something wrong with it.
    Greetings
    Bärbel

  • 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.

    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

  • Netweaver7.0 Sneak preview installation

    Hi All,
              I am trying to install Netweaver7.0 sneak preview at my local PC. I have met all required configuration for installation. I am getting an error at step 3 , while setting OS User  Passwords.
    1)I have manually created two users
           SAPServiceJ2E
    SAP System > OS User  Passwords
    Default is abcd1234, ie. the master password. If the password does not match you Windows password policy (eg., 10 letters, at least on digit), installation will fail.

    Hi, I can't find the forum we are supposed to use for sneak preview installation support. I'm new here, so maybe it's obvious and I'm just missing it.... Could you help us out and provide a link?
    Thanks!

  • NW2004 Sneak Preview installation

    I am trying to install NW2004-SP16-Sneak-Preview on a 2 GB laptop with {Windows XP-MediaCenter Edition-Version 2002-SP2).
    The installation finished successfully.The database and java instances have started successfully.
    When we try to login like http://localhost:50000/irj, I get an error " 503 service unavailable
    application stopped "
    Details: You have requested an application that is currently stopped".
    Does anyone has a solution to this issue?. is it any thing do to with the Media Center Edition?.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    Selvam

    Hi Selvam,
    Is the J2EE home page i.e http://localhost:50000 opening?
    If yes, then probably the irj application might not be
    running. Go to Visual Administrator usr/sap/.../j2ee/admin
    go.bat -> server -> services -> deploy -> applications
    and start the sap.com/irj application.

  • Sneak Preview installation

    I'm trying to install "SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Portal on MaxDB - Developer Edition Sneak Preview"  In the final stages of Portal Installation, it is trying to "Start SAP J2EE Engine", But it keeps messages like
    INFO 2005-03-21 17:20:15
    J2EE Engine JC00 of SAP system J2E did not come up after 950 seconds: waiting for another 20 seconds.
    Could anyone please help?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    this should resolve to a problem in the startup framework of the J2EE Engine. So you could check the troubleshooting tips listed in the documentation in order to locate the exact problem: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a2/bb0a412a06f023e10000000a155106/frameset.htm">The J2EE Engine Does Not Come Up After 800 Seconds</a>.

  • Impossible to unistall WEB AS 6.40 Sneak Preview...

    My companies system landscape has recently changed (in particular our network domain has changed!) over the holiday period - unfortunately it now seems that it is impossible to uninstall the Sneak preview of web AS 6.40 from my client pc.
    Is there any way to manually uninstall this software - or alternatively get past this error??
    This error is preventing our install of the client ramp-up software - and so is really holding things up. We are considering a full OS reinstall... any alternative suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    The error I get is shown below:
    ERROR      2005-01-19 17:26:59 [synxcuser.cpp:937]
               CSyUserImpl::isExistingOnOS()
    FSL-01001  Unable to check existence of account DOMAIN\USERID. The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to.
    WARNING    2005-01-19 17:26:59 [iaxxccntrl.cpp:474]
               CController::stepExecuted()
    The step AddPrivilege with step key Preinstall|ind|ind|ind|ind|ind|0|AddPrivilege was executed with status ERROR.

    Hi,
    The error that you are receiving 'The account may be locked out.....' is because you are not logged on the same domain as the machine you are trying to access.  You too would have to be in the same domain as the server is on. 
    The second alternative is to run uninstall from the server itself.
    Best wishes,
