Craig, Karan, the problem dicussed here is EXACTLY what I am facing. It looks like I do have to perform the Kernel, TP and DB upgrades first. Can one of you guys tell me, which actual files to download? Also if you guys have more detailed information on how to actually perform these various tasks. I hope you guys can give me some more detailed guidelines on how to perform these actual tasks. If documentation would be too much to add in this Forum, please sent me an email to martin.van.gool@accenture.com. Both thanks in advance for sharing you very valuable knowledge. Tiest

Tiest,

You need to download from the Marketplace the "TP" for the Web AS 6.20 System install that (unpack the files to your MiniWAS directory)

That will let you get from SP25 to SP27 then you will need to download the latest Kernel Release (OS Independent and DB Depenendent)

This is the same thing I've outlined in my weblog.

I can. Don't play patches on miniwas, this is a special version that is not intended to be patched and to my lnowledge cannot be patched.

Karan,

as I said you need to just restart it and let it run if after 12 hours you still have the problem then we'll need to check your error logs.

Actually what might be a good idea if for you to restore your backup from before you started the TP and do the kernel upgrade then try again.

Hi Benny,

/people/sap.user72/blog/2004/09/06/mini-me-of-webas-620

Sure it can Was it intended to, can't answer that but if you want to test BSP's you need to patch and therefore that weblog there tells you how.

Karan has been struggling for awhile now but I think we are getting closer

Dear Craig

I will let it run for 12 hrs and see how it goes. You have told me one more option to do the Kernel Upgarde.

Craig can you tell me which file i need to upgrade Kernel, the reason is that I do not have OSS access i am requesting my friend to download for me. I know i am giving lot of trouble to you by asking more details. Please help me Craig.

Thank you Craig.

Hello,

but be careful that you use this queues:

SAPKB62025 - SAPKB62031

SAPKB62032

SAPKB62033 - SAPKB62036

SAPKB62037

SAPKB62037 - SAPKB620..

as described in SAP Note 447925.

Actually Gregor the MiniWAS tends to freeze if you try to do anything in the queue other than one at a time until SP40

It is the Kenerl DB Dependandt and Independant for the 620 WebAS server.

You will also have to get the DB upgrade from www.sapdb.org for 7.4 after the last upgrade of the 6.20 Kernel.

Dear Craig

As per your advise i run the for 14 hrs. Still the process shows 20% completed and shows the message as "TP buffer processing ok".

Please advise me Craig.

Thanks

Hi Craig,

just asked the ABAP PM and yes, it was not intended, but needed to do for special functionality. However, I wouldn't wonder if this ability stops at a certain point - as miniwas misses some code...

You upgraded the kernel already then Karan?

[Former Member]

Hi Benny,

I'm sure at some point some things will not work but so far I was able to complete my last weblog series with the BSP tutorial and <b>hopefully</b> the nice folks putting together the MiniWAS and future versions will keep things like that in mind

I do have to say that I have found several things that do not work but at the same time for the tutorial and testing of code samples the system is PERFECT!!!

Dear Craig

I try to upgrade the Kernel, it is asking for database name and password. What password i should give , Should i give oss password?..

Karan

[Former Member]

the SAPDB should be control as the user and control as the password - that is the default
