EHP Installer - Error in phase PREP_IMPORT/CHECK4NOTES_TOOL

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am trying to do the EHP Installation on an exsisting PI 7.1 Server and i am getting an error in the phase PREP_IMPORT/CHECK4NOTES_TOOL

There were 3 three notes that it threw error on

 Note 1264734 - Error message for reference table and reference fields

 Note 1256384 - View/structure not active: Key field of type string

 Note 1117902 - Storage Parameters in Shadow System do not work

From which i was able toimpletment the first two notes. but the third note while i was implementing it. It said that this correction is not applicable, i had a doubt before downloading as well since the corrections was avaliable with SAPKB71005 of SAP 710

I am trying to retry this step but unable to move forward. It says that the above note is not implemented. Following is my question

1. I am on SP 07 PI 710 not sure why in the first place this note was said to be implemented. The first two notes are avaliable with SP 08 (so it got implemented) but the last one was already implemented in my system ?

2. Now how do i go ahead since i beilve very few people have tried such an installation i am not able to find any links or forums regarding to this

3. After the note was implemented i mean it went to In Processing directly i thought i can change the processing Status so that the Installer detects that and moves forward, but this was in vain i changed the process to completed and now its disappreaded completely. Does any1 know how to get this back?

Please let me knw if you need more information. In desperate need of help on this

Rgds

The log screen tells me that*

Use the Note Assistant to implement note corrections.*

Note

0001117902

Sunny i have noticed a very tricky way how i can solve this because the path E:\EHPI\abap\bin i found a file EHPINOTES.LST which has the contents

1. Fix for activation errors*

1283197

1264734

1256384

#if "$(DBTYPE)" == "MSSQL"

1117902

#endif

I beilve i can make change on this file but then again its not the right way to do it.

What amazes me is that the note 1117902 is not really applicable in my case because the SP version is 07.

The above file tells me that no where does it check what SP version the Server is on. More over the files in the Fix for activation errors are corrections in SP08 so they got applied in my server

this makes me beilve this is a bug

Hi Aditya ,

you have to edit the file EHPINOTES.LST and delete the note which is not relevant to your note and repeat the step.

this should work for you .

check the note - 1251735
