Strange sapinst start problem on SLES10 SP1

150 Views

Hi folks

I am trying to start sapinst, it does work, even the gui starts correctly. But after about 10 seconds sapinst terminates, stating that the gui did not login properly. The strange thing is, that i was able to start sapinst once or twice correctly.

host1:/Installation_Master_6.20_6.40_07_07/IM_LINUX_X86_64/SAPINST/UNIX/LINUXX86_64 # ./sapinst                   
[==============================] | extracting...  done!

guiengine: no GUI connected; waiting for a connection on host migzm210, port 21212 to continue with the installation

guiengine: login in process.
..............................

guiengine: login timeout; the client was unable to establish a valid connection
CSynEvent::~CSynEvent: an error occured;: Success

Suse, sapinst and java versions:

host1:/Installation_Master_6.20_6.40_07_07/IM_LINUX_X86_64/SAPINST/UNIX/LINUXX86_64 # cat /etc/SuSE-release 
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (x86_64)
VERSION = 10
PATCHLEVEL = 1

host1:/Installation_Master_6.20_6.40_07_07/IM_LINUX_X86_64/SAPINST/UNIX/LINUXX86_64 # java -version
java version "1.4.2"

Has anyone had this before?
