Check the owner and group of the files of user orahcp:

.dbenv*

.sapenv*

in the home directory of that user.

Hi Markus,

Thanks you for the early response.

Here are the permissions on those files…

RX6600 hcgwdd5:root >ls -al .db*

-rwxrwxrwx 1 orahcp dba 2802 Jul 24 09:24 .dbenv_hcgwdd5.sh

RX6600 hcgwdd5:root >ls -al .sap*

-rwxrwxrwx 1 orahcp dba 6920 Jul 24 09:19 .sapenv_hcgwdd5.sh

The database is started as user orahcp and the execution of sapinst is started as user hcpadm.

Please advise?

Thanks,

Iqbal

This looks good...

And the /oracle/DUMP directory resp. the file brconnect.log? Does ora<sid> and <sid>adm have permissions to write into /oracle/DUMP?

Permission for the DUMP directory… owner = hcpadm and group = dba

Hi Markus,

Here are the results of the test files created for each user.

hcgwdd5:hcpadm /oracle/DUMP/sapinst_instdir/ERP/LM/COPY/ORA/EXP/CENTRAL/AS-ABAP/EXP $ ls -ltr test

-rw-rw-rw- 1 hcpadm sapsys 0 Aug 14 09:02 test

hcgwdd5:orahcp /oracle/DUMP/sapinst_instdir/ERP/LM/COPY/ORA/EXP/CENTRAL/AS-ABAP/EXP $ ls -ltr test

-rw-rw-rw- 1 hcpadm sapsys 0 Aug 14 09:03 test

Thanks,

Iqbal

Another question: your running the installation/export as root?

sapinst is running as hcpadm

[markus_doehr2 · Accepted solution]

AH! Ok - this is your problem.

you need to run sapinst as "root", otherwise it's not possible to change owner of files to some different user and thus the error message "not owner".

You need to set the following environment:

JAVA_HOME=<jdk directory>

PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/sapmnt/<SID>/exe

DISPLAY

Then start sapinst. It will switch to the correct user so no need of setting Oracle environment variables.
