WAS 6.40 ABAP stack install - error with sapstartsrv.exe - Help needed!

28 Views

Hi all,

Can anyone assist me with a new installation issue? I am trying to perform an initial install of WAS 6.40 SP3 ABAP stack (non unicode) using the NW Master CD and CD51030103 for the SAP Kernel on a vanilla W2K AS server.

I also have a previously installed working version of EP6.0 SP9 on WAS 6.40 (SP9) on the same physical server.

The problem is occuring at the Create and reregister services part of the new 6.40 kernel install, I am getting the message:

WARNING 2004-12-08 18:45:26

Execution of the command "F:\usr\sap\IDS\SYS\exe\run/sapstartsrv.exe '-r' '-q' '-p' 'F:\usr\sap\IDS\SYS\profile\START_DVEBMGS00_devbox01' '-s' 'IDS' '-n' '00' '-U' 'devbox01\SAPServiceIDS' '-P' 'XXXXXX' '-e' 'devbox01\idsadm'" finished with return code -1. Output: Test call to Service failed.Profile parameter SAPSYSTEMNAME or SAPSYSTEM doesn't match installation parameters.Service not correctly installed.

ERROR 2004-12-08 18:45:26

MOS-01011 'F:\usr\sap\IDS\SYS\exe\run/sapstartsrv.exe' returned with '-1'.

I have had no problems in the past in installing a 6.20 kernel on the same host as a portal server, but this time with 6.40 I have had no luck.

I have tried replacing the version of sapstartsrv.exe from the
..usr\sap\SID\SYS\exe\run directory with a more recent version to see if the exe version was the problem but this has not resolved.

I have also tried to run the installation again without deleting the previous files, and this has also made no difference.

I have read through most of the forum's regarding problems with sapstartsrv.exe failing, but couldn't find anything that can help fix my problem.

If anybody thinks they can help, it would be most appreciated 😊

Cheers,

Paul
