MSSQL database connect problem during installation

[Syamkriz]

Hi Experts,

Could you please advice.

I doing a system copy of ECC6.0 system. The database is restored and I am using connect to existing database option.

During installation I am facing problem in connecting to database.

Initial sapinst log is

• i have my R3trans -d as*

G:\usr\sap\RSF\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64>R3trans -d

This is R3trans version 6.14 (release 701 - 05.03.09 - 08:28:00).

unicode enabled version

2EETW169 no connect possible: "DBMS = MSSQL --- SERV

ER = 'ctcadbta2' DBNAME = 'RSF'"

R3trans finished (0012).

I have set all my database environment variables correctly and my Kernal is update and in sync with source system. Could you please advice?

Thanks for your info, then another clue might be this one:

> G:\usr\sap
D00\log\SLOG00.LOG: No such file or directory

> rslgwr1(20): rstrbopen cannot open pre-existing SysLog file.

See the wrong directory path? I don't know why it's being this way, but please start with checking path parameter you defined in SAPinst.

Hi Syam,

Just try creating blank file using notepad in the below location.

G:\usr\sap
D00\log\SLOG00.LOG

Then retry the operation.

Hi Effan,

We were following this step for a long time in our project for many systems which we have done refresh, and this has proved to be working. Not sure why the database is not connecting this time.

Thanks and Regards

>The database is restored and I am using connect to existing database option.

If you use database copy to refresh a system, then this is not the right sequence with SAPinst.

1. install a new instance with the same component as source system you want to copy;

2. detach the newly installed database, attach the source system database;

3. run STM to finish database copy.
