Hi,
I'm trying to patch TREX 7.0 on AIX 5.3 but I can't get SAPInst to start... the GUI gives the error "SAPInst is not available on localhost:21200" (same when I use the hostname).
The output from sapinst is:
[==============================] - extracting... done!
Starting GuiServer using:
/usr/java14_64/bin/java -cp /tmp/sapinst_exe.2511080.1200380799/JAR/instgui.jar:/tmp/sapinst_exe.2511080.1200380799/JAR/inqmyxml.jar -Djava.security.egd=file:/dev/urandom SDTServer config=jar:sdtserver.xml guiport=21212 sapinsthost=localhost sapinstport=21200 guistart=true

iaextract.c:814: child has signaled an exec error. Keeping directory /tmp/sapinst_exe.2511080.1200380799
I have tried starting "sapinst -nogui" and then "startInstGui.sh" separately but no success.
I can't start "sapinst -nogui" as root at all, there's no errors, it just doesn't do anything! As <SID>adm, it looks like it starts but then the GUI says there is no sapinst running.
I've set the JAVA_HOME, SAPINST_JRE_HOME and PATH envs and my limits are:
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) unlimited
stack(kbytes) unlimited
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 2097151
nofiles(descriptors) 2000
The strange thing is I installed TREX as root the other day and everything was fine, but today when I came to install the patch I just can't get it to start, or even get any meaningful error messages... Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Many thanks
Jane
