dispatcher is not working, while start sap management console

[Former Member]

I installed SAP IDES 4.7 on my PC on a Windows 2000 server. Now when I start the SAP server from Windows 2000 the dispatcher starts and stops immediately. It shows following processes on the right side of the MMC:

strdbs.cmd started

msg_server.exe running

disp+work.exe running, message server connection ok, dialog queue time 0.00 sec .

And with the WPtable all 0-12 processes change from 'Run' to 'Ended' after some time. The server color changed to green. After some seconds, the dispatcher was automatically stopped and the server name changed to yellow.

Please guide me step by step, Pleaseeeeeee its urgent for me....help me

Hello , you should look in work process logs and search why the work processes terminates. Logs can be found in
<host>\sapmnt\<SID>\DVEBMGS00\work and are named dev_dispatcher, dev_wxx and stderrxx .

Commonly the work process terminates because the cannot attach to the db, if so you should investigate why the database is not up and running.
