SDN Composition Environment Subscription Installation Error

[Former Member]

Has anyone successfully installed the latest SDN CE Subscription using MAXDB? After about 15 tries, I am basically giving up. There is a support email, but they have basically given up too.

It always fails at step 31 of 34 (Starting Java Engine). I followed all steps, include increasing the virtual memory. The pre-req. checker runs fine (not a single issue).

I extracted the SUPPORT.SAR file. I looked through just about all files. There is a mainLog file that seems to have several errors pointing to SAPHostControl. I also see this: FSL-06002 Error 1060 (The specified service does not exist as an installed service.)

It seems the Application Server just will not start.

I use Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition X64 SP2 with about 6gb of memory running on a laptop. I always use the Standard System install (SAPInst.exe). I have tried with and without the loopback adapter, with and without VMWare Workstation.

I really don't know what to try next.

Has anyone successfully installed the SDN CE subscription (CE 7.1 SR5)?

Any ideas would be appreciated!

Hi

Just do one small check ,and let us know

Go to services and check whether MAX DB instance is running or not make it automatic

Hi Satish,

First, let me apologize for taking so long to get back to you. The project I am on is in crunch mode... almost 24/7.

Anyway, back to your reply. I viewed the services. There are several items in the list related to MAXDB (e.g. MAXDB: .DA1 (quick)) they all have "Manual" in the Startup Type. Even though the SDN CE Subscription install did not complete successfully (step 31 of 34 fails). After the failed install, I opened up the Windows SAP Management Console and tried to start the server. I then looked at the icon for MaxDB. I could login using ID "control". I then clicked the online button. After coming online, it shows the Data at 41%, Logs 0%, Sessions 1%, Data Cache Hit Rate 91% etc. I then checked the services and it shows MAXDB: DA1 (the name I gave during the install) with a Status of Started.

I looked at several MaxDB Install logs, and they all seemed okay. If you have any commands you want to run against my MaxDB please let me know.

I really appreciate your input. It is frustrating that I have had the CE SDN Subscription for months, and have tried 20+ times to install it, and it always stops at step 31 of 34.

Can you think of any install logs that might help?

Many thanks again for your input!
