SAP TMKSVR error

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I will be installing SAP Solution Manager 7 to V5R4 iSeries server but upon installation of TMKSVR, it's giving an error in phase CHECKING INSTANCE

"An error ocured during installation (send TMKMessage:" could not send message, no connection available.)"

I already copied all the MASTER, KERNEL, LANGUAGE, and JAVA cd's in the server. I also updated to the latest ISERPACK8 for Solution Manager/iSeries V5R4 version. Tried run the installation in Windows XP and Windows Vista but the same error occurred.

Hope you can help me resolve the error.

Thanks,

John

Hi:

on iseries you should check the following:

execute: CFGTCP

Then option 10 --> in hosts table check if you have:

::1 IPV6-LOOPBACK

IPV6-LOCALHOST

127.0.0.1 LOOPBACK

LOCALHOST

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <servername> ex: server01

<servername.domain.com> ex: server01.mycompany.com

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx <server_windows> ex: windosxp

After that option 12 -->

Name of the principal system --> <servername> ex: server01

Name of the domain ---> <domain.com> ex: mycompany.com

• Please, be very carefull and extrict this Uppercase o Lowecase

After that in the Windows PC --> edit hosts file and put the same information.

i think that is all....

Bye

Hello my friend

Just to be clear, first of all, I assume you have the user on current windows host which has same id/pwd as on iSeries Host. And you ran setup.exe in TMKSVR directory, which enables TMKSVR instance and netserver serviceon iSeries host. Now, you should be able to see all files on IFS of iSeries. Besides, every time you setup TMKSVR connection you need to make sure the port you define is available on iSeries.

Hi Kikco,

No. The problem is not yet resolved. Eventhough I performed the suggestions of SAP OSS as per my message, still the same error occurs. Hope anyone can help us.

Hi Johan,

I don't know what you did ... but I would start again ...

- dltlib tmksvr00 and tmksvr

- setup tmksvr from a patched CD (with latest iserpack)

- you will see: it works great ))

Hi John,

Please try to ping the iSeries from your installation PC in the following ways

- ping -a <ip address of the iSeries>

- ping xxxxxxxx

- ping xxxxxxxx.<domain name>

If all pings would have been successful but TMKSVR still is unable to connect, you may try to add the name of your installation PC to the iSeries' TCP/IP Host Table (CFGTCP option 10), for the time of installation only.

You should pay special attention here to lower and upper cases (see SAP Note 60252)

Hi Kenneth,

Ping is all working and already added the laptop to the host table but the same error occurs.

Please advice. Thanks!

Hi John

Ok, theres a couple of other things you could check...

- if the user that you run the installation from your laptop, does exist at iSeries level with the same password

- any firewall on your laptop should be disabled

Hi Kenneth,

Firewall is disabled in PC (laptop) and user SAPINST/password is the same in iSeries and PC (laptop) as well but the same error occurs.

Thanks,

Hi Francis,

Ok, I think it best to log a customer message with SAP support, BC-INS-AS4, to investigate the issue. Could be some problem with subsystem jobs on the iSeries so open a telnet/5250 connection to the iSeries.

Hi Kenneth,

I will definitely send an OSS message for it.

Thanks!

You might need to start the TCP/IP Server - STRTCPSVR SERVER(*NETSVR)
