Dear experts,
we are trying to install ERP 6 EHP8 ABAP Stack on SLES 12 SP1 x86_64 with SAP HANA SPS121 on it.
After the installation step "create users for SAP System", the user <sapsid>adm is created with the following entry in /etc/passwd
td1adm:x:1001:79:SAP system Administrator:/home/td1adm:/bin_/csh
The installation fails at step "start instance". Central instance can be started, but the processes of the PASI cannot be started (besides IGS). the error message in dev_w0 is undefined variable dbms/type.
When I am trying to become <sapsid>adm via
root#>su - td1adm
I am getting the following prompt
X_MOuSE_CURSOR: Undefined variable
%
the % sign is supposed to be the shell prompt for csh, what usually would be#
<hostname>:<sapsid>adm <number>>
meaning the shell environment for the user is wrong. After executing
/bin/csh -c "source /home/<sapsid>adm/.cshrc; env
/bin/csh -c "source /home/<sapsid>adm/.dbenv.csh; env
/bin/csh -c "source /home/<sapsid>adm/.sapenv.csh; env
the prompt still stays the same
however, after manually executing
%/bin/csh
the prompt is right
<hostname>:<sapsid>adm <number>>
but still when trying to start the system via startsap or sapcontrol, the central instance starts, but not the dialog instance, with the same error message in the developer traces regarding parameter dbms/type.
however, environment variable dbms_type is HDB, so it is ok.
The error persists after resetting the installation with a new option and after extracting the newest SAPEXE, SAPEXEDB, R3trans, dw, dw_utils, SAPCRPYTOLIBP, tp, startsap and stopsap .SAR files into the kernel directory
Best regards,
Andreas Loibl
