Error Rolling Out SAPGUI 7.20 Patch 8 Through Auto Tool ( 1078548 / 2011 )

28 Views

Hi,

Wish You A Very Happy New Year 2012..

Can someone please answer below query raised by one of our client - related to SAPGUI patch rollout using automated tool:

ISSUE IS: While client is trying to re-package SAPGUI 720 patch 8 using automated rollout tool (Wise Module Factory) they are experiencing an error message - File version levels released by previous SAPGUI patchs and patch 8 are same, even though file sizes are different and automated tool only able to re-package when file versions are different.

I've raised an OSS message - but SAP support consultant advised to post a thread on SDN as a developer might answer below clients question.

Out Clients Question is:

Why SAP modified a file without changing the version number?

e.g.

org file in stalled with patch 4

SAPlpd.exe Version 6.29.0.1 Date: 26-02-2010 Size: 1 562 432

replaced by (from exe)

SAPlpd.exe Version 6.29.0.1 Date: 24-08-2011 Size: 1 598

560

We detected this during our repacking, and we did not asked for support

for this.

Version control and a ascending versioning is essential for every

developer and

I'm sure that we are not the only client/company with an automated

software

distribution."

Please let me know if you require any additional details in answering

our clients question..

Thank You & Regards,

Shyam Yanati
