Help for Installing ECC 6.0

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to install ECC 6.0 since last week and so far I am not successful. But all these time i made few observations which I have listed below. I had gone through installation guides and enough materials. Anyone who is having installation experience of ECC 6.0 in Windows server 2003 with MS SQL 2005 as database please help me out with some valuable suggestions.

Installation Scenario:

1. Installation is done on the same host were solution manager is installed.

2. Installation is performed as central system Installation.

3. All the prerequisites were met as mentioned in the installation guide. ( If any specific point should be given much care please let me know )

4. Both ABAP Installation and ABAP+JAVA stack has been performed.

Observations Made:

1. Installation fails during importing ABAP (Job 1 of 19)

2. Size of the installation directory grows abnormally (nearly 36GB)

3. After observing *.TSK file its found that errors were caused only with steps starting with letter D (ex: D F4UHLP I err)

4. Even after changing the message from err to ok the installation is not proceeding and it throws error.

I am starting a fresh installation now and Please let me know how I should precede the installation. Will there be any errors with dump (I have downloaded everything through SAP Download Manager). How can I finish it successfully.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

You can find the exact error message at this link which i have already posted as a question.

Regarding the sap installation directory it occupies 36GB even when i do a fresh installation of deleting the older files.

hi,

-> without exact error messages it will be quite difficult to narrow down the possible solutions...

-> growth of the inst directory could be caused by numerous (re)starts of the installation tool sapinst...but: plz provide more accurate information: are there any specific files growing very fast?
