SAPehpi error MAIN_NEWBAS/JOB_RSUPGCUA_PROD

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I'm doing an EHP4 upgrade on ECC6 in our test sytem. Downtime phase has just started and i passed KX_SWITCH_1 as well and kernel was switched by SAPehpi. Soon after this i received following error in a log file PSUPGCUA.LOG

1 ETQ201 Entering upgrade-phase "JOB_RSUPGCUA_PROD" ("20100128121642")

2 ETQ231 RFC Login failed

I checked by logging into the shadow system to see if i can run this job myself, i was not able to run any of the batch jobs. when i did the stopsap and startsap i was also not able to start the sap instance. When i try resumed the EHP instaler the installer came up with following error this time.

Unable to execute the SDT request ABAP operation execute on hostname

sapecb instance 00 Downtime execution of the ABAP upgrade request ABAP

has failed Error from unit observer Tool died unexpectedly with FATAL

ERROR: Inconsistent definition of profile path in

profile: '/usr/sap/ECB/SYS/profile' !

= '/oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap/ECB/SYS/profile'!! .

Whe i tried SAPehpi commands to start and stop shadow it gives me following.

SAPehpi startshd

Enter the path of your root directory [/oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap]:

Root directory =

• Reexecuting SAPehpi with adapted environment and restart=0x3.

At this time the start of the shadow instance is not possible,

since you have passed phase STOP_SHDI_LAST!!!

SAPehpi stopshd

Enter the path of your root directory [/oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap]:

Root directory =

• Reexecuting SAPehpi with adapted environment and restart=0x3.

FATAL ERROR: TR group name "SPC_SUPPORT_PACKAGES" is unknown

Afte this i found that my shadow instance (02) has no instance profile created in /sapmnt/ECB/profile directory. May be because upgrade stopped in the middle of processing. I created this profile by copying it from the original instance (00) and by renaming the host name and instance number in it. It is still not resolving our issue.

I'm able to log on to the database from Oracle at this stage and i'm also able to execute R3trans -d and -x successfully.

When i'm running /usr/sap/ECB/DVEBMGS02/exe/sapcontrol -prot NI_HTTP -host sapecb -nr 02 -function StartWait 10000 10

It returns error :

29.01.2010 14:19:18

Start

OK

29.01.2010 14:19:28

StartWait

FAIL: process msg_server MessageServer not running

Not sure why message server is not running, how to make it running, do i need to change any profile parameters ? where ? and What ?

Has anyone faced similler issue ? I'm not able to resume my EHP4 installation due to my current situation.

Hi,

Could you please check for ELG log file for this phase.

> SAPehpi startshd

> Enter the path of your root directory [/oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap]:

> Root directory =

At this stage you cannot start shadow instance any more. Because since you have passed phase STOP_SHDI_LAST and after this phase shadow instance does not exists any more.

Hi Sunny,

Thanks for the response. I do realize that i do not need shadow instance at this poing. However i'm also unable to resume the SAPEHPI. it shows me following error when i tried resuming the EHPI.

Unable to execute the SDT request ABAP operation execute on hostname sapecb instance 00 Downtime execution of the ABAP upgrade request ABAP has failed Error from unit observer Tool died unexpectedly with FATAL ERROR: Inconsistent definition of profile path in profile: '/usr/sap/ECB/SYS/profile' ! = '/oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap/ECB/SYS/profile'!

Do you know at what location EHPI refes the profile parameters. i mean /sapmnt/<SID>/SYS/Profile or from the upgrade directory. I have instance profiles in both places and not sure which profile has the inconsistancy.

The entry DIR_PROFILE in the instance profile of your SAP system has the wrong value.

Solution:

1. Change the value of the parameter DIR_PROFILE in the instance profile of your SAP system to the value /usr/sap/<sid>/SYS/profile.

2. Restart you SAP system.

3. Repeat the phase.

Thanks

Thanks Sunny for the prompt reply.

Following are the parameters currently defined in /sapmnt/ECB/profiles for the instance profile of the shadow instance

DIR_PROFILE = $(DIR_INSTALL)/profile

PF = $(DIRPROFILE)/ECB_DVEBMGS02_sapecb

DIR_EXECUTABLE = /oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap/ECB/SYS/exe

DIR_INSTANCE = /oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap/ECB/DVEBMGS02

#DIR_PROFILE = /oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap/ECB/SYS/profile

DIR_GLOBAL = /oracle/ECB/EhP4/EHPI/abap/ECB/SYS/global

For some reasons when i run startsap it does not brings any dialog, or background processes which is resulting RFC error in EHPI.

Any suggestoin for that ?

Hi,

I will suggest you to change DIR_PROFILE parameter to /usr/sap/<sid>/SYS/profile.

Then restart system and retry the phase.

Thanks

I changed it to /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile and startsap still it did not started any dialog processes.

When i resumed EHPI it showed me the same RFC connection refuse error.

Hi

Sorry, now, I don't have much idea. I faced same situation then i changed DIR_PROFILE and it got resolved.

Thanks

Hi Gurus,

I am doing EHP5 upgrade from ECC6 . MSSQL 2005 , windows 2003 server. DDIC_UPG step is running long time 8 hrs . So i changed the profile parameter as per the note and restart the Shadow system . But i am not able to stop the ehpinstallation . its showing "cannot stop ehpin". when i checkd the log process is going on.Should i need to restart the upgrade or let it run as it is.

Otherwise please advice how to restart the EHPinstallation .

Normal case ..how long it will take to complete the process.

Please advice....

thanks

It seems like something is wrong in some profile parameter, not sure where either in upgrade directory or in the standard directory /sapmnt ?

Can anyone suggest how the instance profile should look like at this stage ?
