Hello,
i'm running a S4HANA installation on Linux. Actually there is an error during the step 'start instance'. I did some research in other communtity entries with several reason and solutions for this error.
Now i found this error message in the file dev_disp.log:
*** DP_FATAL_ERROR => DpMsAttach: local hostname 'hdb-s4hana' is resolved to loopback address (cf. SAP note 1054467 for details)
In putty i checked the processes:
disp+work, Dispatcher, GRAY, Stopped, , , 8760
igswd_mt, IGS Watchdog, GREEN, Running, 2018 06 15 17:24:02, 0:34:54, 8761
Could it be, that the host file entry is the reason?
These are the actual entries:
# Your system has configured 'manage_etc_hosts' as True.
# As a result, if you wish for changes to this file to persist
# then you will need to either
# a.) make changes to the master file in /etc/cloud/templates/hosts.suse.tmpl
# b.) change or remove the value of 'manage_etc_hosts' in
# /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg or cloud-config from user-data
#
# The following lines are desirable for IPv4 capable hosts
127.0.0.1 hdb-s4hana.xyz hdb-s4hana
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost4.localdomain4 localhost4
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 hdb-s4hana.xyz hdb-s4hana
::1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
fe00::0 ipv6-localnet
ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes
ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters
ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts
I'm not sure, what are the correct entries. Can you support me and give me an example?
Thanks.
Chris
If necessary i can insert the complete logs.
