Error on DB50/DB13 to connect to database

Posted on Jul 19, 2004 at 05:51 PM 65 Views

Hi,

Sorry to put this message here as talk not only about SAPDB but, did anyone see these messages after update client programs to MaxDB 7.5 on DB50/DB13:

DB13 DBM_GETF DBAHIST DATE=20040510

System Error

DB50 DBM_EXECUTE

dbm_version System Error

Error DBMRfcSystemError at DB Instance CreateObject

Also, I copy library file libsapu16.so from /sapdb/programs/lib to /sapdb/programs/bin and /sapdb/programs/pgm.

I have AIX 5.1/SAPDB 7.3 database and IndepPrograms updated to 7.5 release.

Regards,

    Dear Daniela,

    could you please try the following:

    - go to transaction SM49 and execute the command 'dbmrfc' without any options.

    Normally, that should call 'sapdbmrfc' and all things should be ok. However, in your case I suspect an error message to appear which probably looks similar to this:

    Could not open the ICU common library.

    The following files must be in the path described by

    the environment variable "LD_LIBRARY_PATH":

    libicuuc.so.20, libicudt20b.so, libicui18n.so.20 [nlsui1.c 2982] pid

    Terminating.

    You may set the environment variable "NLSUI_7BIT_FALLBACK" to run the

    without the ICU libraries in an emergency mode. [nlsui1.c 2733]

    If that's the case, please proceed with the following steps:

    1. Execute the command 'which sapdbmrfc'

    2. Go to the path displayed by the command from nr.1

    3. rename the executable sapdbmrfc, for example to 'sapdbmrfc.orig'

    4. make a script named 'sapdbmrfc' and enter the following lines:

    NLSUI_7BIT_FALLBACK=YES

    export NLSUI_7BIT_FALLBACK

    sapdbmrfc.orig $*

    After having done this, please try to go back to transaction SM49 again and execute the 'dbmrfc' again. If the script works OK, you'll get a message similar to:

    Could not open the ICU common library.

    The following files must be in the path described by

    the environment variable "LD_LIBRARY_PATH":

    libicuuc.so.20, libicudt20b.so, libicui18n.so.20 [nlsui1.c 2982] pid

    = 19916

    Unicode ctype functions are replaced with wctype functions [nlsui1.c2758]

    Hope this helps.

    Kind regards,

    Roland Mallmann

      Hi Roland

      I have to say this : You and your collegues that respond/help us here on this MaxDB forum are the best!!!!!! Many and many thanks to help me !!!!

      I did the following:

      1. Running on SM49, I got this message:

      exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program dbmrfc because of the following errors:

      #0509-150 Dependent module libsapu16.so could not be loaded.#0509-022 Cannot load module libsapu16.so.#0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.External program terminated with exit code 255

      2. I copied libsapu16.so from /sapdb/programs/bin to exe directory (/sapmnt/SID/exe).

      3. Running again on SM59 I got this message:

      Could not open the ICU common library [nlsui1.c 2576] pid = 6635608

      Please make sure that the file libicuuc.so.20 is in the path [nlsui1.c 2578] pid = 6635608

      described by the environment variable LIBPATH [nlsui1.c 2580] pid = 6635608

      Unicode ctype functions are replaced with wctype functions [nlsui1.c 2349] pid = 6635608

      4. So after this I call again DB50 and DB13 and everything works fine 😉

      Many thanks !!!!

      Kind Regards,
