we are using solution manager 4.0 we were trying to upgrade the kernel

from 159 to 188 .

but after replacing the kernel files our saposcol startwas failing

when we execute the command "saposcol -s " , there it shows the SAPOSCOLSTATUS IS IDLE .

the log of dev_disp file shows as ,

HI

please restart sap and run saposcol -k, restart os and start saposcol -l. please check saposcol -d.

Also Try running Saproot.sh with the user root. it will fix the issue. and u can find saproot.sh in sapmnt/SID/exe.

The permissions should be 4755 as mentioned before and check the ownership of root.Setting it to SAPSYS may solve the problem.

SAPOSCOL needs permission 4775. Once you do kernel upgrade, this gets changed. So, run the following script from your kernel directly and it will fix the permissions and then start sap.

Go to Kernel Directory ( /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run )

[root ]# ./saproot.sh

Hi,

what is your OS?

For AIX change saposcol permission.

chown root:sapsys saposcol

DwSLCheckVersion: shared library version mismatch:

shared lib "dw_xml.so" version 159 <-> kernel version 188

while upgrading kernel kindly rename the existing files if it is in use by system, so that the new lib file will not show this error.
