Web AS 6.40 - JAVA-ADDIN Installation error

[stefan_koehler]

Hello guys,

if we try to install a "Java Add-In for ABAP> Oracle> Central System> Dialog Instance Finalization" we recieve the following error:

======================================================

INFO 2008-03-20 16:45:42

CJSlibModule::writeInfo_impl()

Found these instances:

sid: <SID>, number: 01, name: SCS01, host: <hostname>

sid: <SID>, number: 96, name: DVEBMGS96, host: <hostname>

ERROR 2008-03-20 16:45:50

CJSlibModule::writeError_impl()

CJS-20049 Installation stopped. DIAGNOSIS: Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a J2EE Add-In installation.

======================================================

The central service installation finished successfully.

As you can see the installation routine of sapinst finds the 2 instances .. but after that it says "CJS-20049 Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a J2EE Add-In installation".

Have anybody seen this before?

I have looked at /etc/services, passwd, the environment, etc.. everything seems to be fine.. but the sapinst is not able to identify the ABAP system after he found it.

Is there any possibility to trace/debug the sapinst?

Hi Stefan,

The reason for the error message is that you are trying to install the java add-in dialog instance which requires a ABAP dialog instance installed on the system as a prerequisite. The ABAP central instace that is installed will be used by the Java add-in central instance.

So, you need to install the ABAP dialog instance if you wish to install a java add-in dialog instance.

Best Regards,

Matt

Hello Matt,

> So, you need to install the ABAP dialog instance if you wish to install a java add-in dialog instance.

Of course.. there is an ABAP dialog instance (it is a BW 3.5 system) and we need the java add-in to be able to connect to a MS-SQL server.

As i posted a part of the sapinst.log before:

> Found these instances:

> sid: <SID>, number: 01, name: SCS01, host: <hostname>

> sid: <SID>, number: 96, name: DVEBMGS96, host: <hostname>

You can see that the instance DVEBMGS96 is found .. but sapinst aborts with the error message "Cannot find an installed ABAP system, which is a prerequisite for a J2EE Add-In installation."

Hi Stefan,

sid: <SID>, number: 01, name: SCS01, host: <hostname> <-- This is a SCS instance

sid: <SID>, number: 96, name: DVEBMGS96, host: <hostname> <-- This is an ABAP CI

Neither of these are an ABAP Dialog Instance (which would not have the "E" or "M" WP types in "DVEBMGS"), that is why you are getting the error.

Hello Matt,

but our BW system has only one ABAP instance (=Central Instance).

We don't need no additional abap dialog instance for this system.. is it really necessary to create one only for installation?

Thanks and Regards

Hi Stefan,

No, you do not. But in your original question, you said you were performing "Java Add-In for ABAP> Oracle> Central System> Dialog Instance Finalization", which would require a Dialog Instance to complete. If you have already installed an ABAP+Java CI, then you are good to go.

Hello Matt,

i am not very into J2EE, so i have to clarify one thing.

We need to install the "MS SQL Server JDBC 2.0 DataSource" into the J2EE ADD-IN to get data out of one MS-SQL server into our BW.

We have already installed the following components:

- The ABAP CI (of course)

- "SAP NetWeaver '04 SR1> SAP System Installation> Java Add-In for ABAP> Oracle> Central System> Java System Finalization"

If we run the jcmon we already see one dispatcher, servernode and SDM.

So if i understand you correct the "Java System Finalization" is enough to run the "JDBC driver" , if we only have an ABAP CI, right?

Thanks and Regards

Hi Stefan,

> - "SAP NetWeaver '04 SR1> SAP System Installation> Java Add-In for ABAP> Oracle> Central System> Java System Finalization"

This is the Java add-in for the ABAP Central Instance, and should be sufficient to install your JDBC driver.
