SDM Error

[Former Member]

Hi,

when i start J2EE through SAP MMC Console, SDM returns the exit code 16. and the Development Trace File contains

JLaunchIExitJava: exit hook is called (rc=16)

JLaunchCloseProgram: good bye (exitcode=16)

How many ever times it is started returns the same thing.

can anybody help in this regard.

Thanks in advance.

Before reinstalling everything try the following. Your SDM may be in STANDALONE mode, and just needs to be changed to INTEGRATED mode.

1)Open a command prompt window.

2) Go to the directory :

C:\usr\sap\<your_instance_name>\JC00\SDM\program

3) Type: sdm jstartup "mode=integegrated”

4) Press “Enter”

Now try starting the SDM via the SAP MMC Console as before.

Hope this helps,

Hi Walter,

THANK YOU! I was having this same issue. My SDM log had the following in it:

SDM operation mode successfully set to: Standalone.

JStartupFramework is requesting to start the SDM Server.

Info: SDM is currently detached from JStartupFramework. Forward this information to the JStartupFramekwork (disable SDM process).

Info: disabling SDM Process with JStartupFramework

I ran your command and it resolved my problem. You just made my day! Do you know what causes the SDM to get into STANDALONE mode?

Thanks,

Hello,

It could also be the case that the DB service is stopped. You can check that in the AdministrativeTools from Control Panel.

The SAPDB: <SID> service is usuallly set to Automatic start.

Hope this helps.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

I guess the problem will be that of the SDM installation.I think the SDM host and port is not correctly set up.Re-install WAS and while installing be sure of giving proper java_home and other credentials.

hope it helps.
