Could not auto-update SDM sever

[Former Member]

Hi Experts.

I have a System WAS Java 7.00 SP15.

When, I update the SDM (Software Deployment Manager) to the SP16 (SDMKIT16_0-10003463.JAR), with the JSPM, I get the following error message:

Software component SAP_JAVASL deployment messages:

Cannot update SDM.

Cannot update SDM, Could not auto-upda SDM Server. Cannot execute Java process for autoUpdate. Return code condition success evaluted to false for process java.exe for action ACTION_AUTO_UPDATE.

Also, I get the following errors in log:

Ticiano-

1.Copy the new version of SDMKITxxx.jar file to a temporary directory

(you could take the file from the inbox directory).

Then change to this directory and unpack the file:

jar -xvf SDMKITxxx.JAR

2.Navigate to the SDM folder (/usr/sap/SID/JCXX/SDM/program)

2.1 ./StopServer.sh - it will stop SDM server

2.2 ./sdm.sh jstartup mode=standalone - it will change the mode of SDM to standalone

3. Go back to your temporary SDM directory

./update

enter the path of the SDM home when asked by the updater:

/usr/sap/SID/JCXX/SDM/program

4. When the update is successfully finished,go back to the official SDM directory:

cd /usr/sap/SID/JCXX/SDM/program

4.1 Launch this command: ./sdm.sh jstartup mode=integrated -->

this will switch back SDM to integrated mode

4.2 And finally this one: ./StartServer.sh - will start SDM server

This should fix it as i also faced similar kin of problem this is what i did.

Thanks,
