Slash ("\") path in windows

[Former Member]

Hello,

I'm several problems with the sapinst (homogenous system copy), because I'm working with windows, and sapinst is trying to find the path G:\Exportdb/DATA when the correct path is G:\Exportdb\DATA.

Thank's in advanced

SAPINST does not care about slashes or backslashes. it should work nonetheless on Windows.

so, make sure that G:\Exportdb\DATA really exists and that you can write in this directory, check permissions.

The directory exist, and it has the correct permissions.

I'm doing the export from a cluster server, where CI is in node A (clnodo1), and DB is in node B (clnodo2).

I'm executing the export from the DB node.

And the same problem occurs with the command :

clnodo1\sapmnt\CSP\SYS\exe\run/R3ldctl.exe -l ./R3ldctlExport.log -p G:\Export260908/DATA/

but if I execute manually with sentence :

clnodo1\sapmnt\CSP\SYS\exe\run\R3ldctl.exe -l ./R3ldctlExport.log -p G:\Export260908\DATA\

this working fine.

What do you see in that logfile? What is the error message?

- What Windows version are you using?

- What Oracle version do you use?

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Oracle 9.2.0.7 + Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition Service Pack 1

[markus_doehr2 · Accepted solution]

And you are using which kernel?

Your problem is, that the kernel program R3load can´t find its Oracle libraries.

Hi,

Kernel 640 NUC Patch 129.

I've download the last patches of the executables R3ldctl, R3load and R3szchk.

But if I try to execute the command manually and I change the slash, it's working fine.

Are you are running the program as user <sid>adm?

Markus

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

Yes, with <sid>adm

Hi Francesc ,

Have you solved your problem ? Are you manually executing the program finally ? I have the same problem ...( 4.7 with MSCS )

Could you mind to let me know the solution ?

Many thanks .

Best Regards,

Carlos
