jspm cannot exchange kernel binary archives

Hello,

I'm trying to apply SPS10 to my SPS9 EP system. I've tried a couple of times and keep getting the following error in the JSPM console(edited for clarity):

...

Software component SAP KERNEL deployment messages:

Cannot exchange kernel binary archives. Could not execute the kernel patch. See previous messages. Could not finish Copy operation with parameters fromFile '', toFile '',toDir 'D:/usr/sap/PTD/SYS/exec/uc/NTI386/'.Cannot copy D:\usr\sap\PTD\JC01\j2ee\JSPM\tmp\krnl<datetime>\newKernel\kernel\sapevents.dll to directory D:\usr\sap\PTD\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386. Cannot copy D:\usr\sap\PTD\JC01\j2ee\JSPM\tmp\krnl<datetime>\newKernel\kernel\sapevents.dll to D:\usr\sap\PTD\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386\sapevents.dll using Windows console operation. 1

The temporary directory exists and contains the sapevents.dll file. The first step of the patch worked and applied JSPM 10.1 successfully. Should I just shutdown the server and copy these files by hand? Any other ideas?

Thanks.

Rob

This is a known problem. Basically, when this happens, go into the operating systems level and rename he file sapevents.dll to something else and hit retry. It doesn't happen all the time but very often on kernel upgrades.

That worked. I stumbled onto the solution by trying to copy the kernel files. I got the error "The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open." on sapevents.dll. Renaming the file fixed the problem.

I've assigned points for your assistance.

Thanks.

Hi

I started upgrading the kernel through JSPM for NW7.3 portal on Redhat 5.7 and I am also getting the same error similar to Robert error, but slight changes

Can anyone help me on this error

Details message

Messages for componet sap.com/SAP kernel

cannot exchange kernal binary archives

couldnot not execute the kernel patch. See previous messages

couldnot calculate kernal binary exchange instructions for OS UNX and DB ORA

couldnot build configuration from input fle /usr/sap/SID/J00/J2ee/config/kernelTasks_UNX.xml.com.sap.sdt.util.diag. Development support Required Exception: Asserton failed for (path /usr/sap/trans/EPS/kernel provided as a base drectory path is not a directory) at com.sap.sdt.util.diag.SDT.check (SDT.java:37)

This is the error message I am getting when I started JSPM

I did stopped SAP and all other processes and extracted all the files again into /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in and gave all the permssions and restarted the SAP and it is still giving the same error

SO kindly please tell me what else I need to go to solve this sue

Thanking in advance
