GUI 710 update problem

[Former Member]

Hi,<br><br>

we have set up an installation server and updated it to PL 17.<br>

Now we start the SAP LogonPad about 5 times and it pops up with the update message.<br>

If we say "Yes update" the update rushes through 14% and disappears. When I start the update again the same thing happens.<br><br>

Now if I execute following update command manually the update works without problems:<br>

dedomss0010\SAPGUI710_INSTSERVER\setup\nwsapsetup.exe /package:"_KURZ Standard GUI (local)" /update<br><br>

No errors. Everything works.<br><br>

Now why doesn't the automatic update work?<br>

Client OS: WinXP SP2, Server OS: Windows Server 2003<br><br>

Best regards,<br><br>

So when I try to update automatically the log says:<br><br>

13:07:57 NwSapFeiKr 2 Attempting file uninstallation: C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\SAP Shared\wdtlog.ocx<br>

13:07:57 NwSapFeiKr 2 File type: InProc COM server file<br>

And then the log stops and the installation routine disappears.<br>

When I perform the update command automatically via Start -> Run everything works fine.<br><br>

Ok, It gets funnier.<br>

If the user is NOT a local admin the automatic update works!<br>

-> ???<br><br>

So when I'm a local administrator the automatic update doesn't work.

Found the "error". In one of our scripts we had a<br><br>

taskkill /options sap*<br><br>

so all users with local admin rights killed the update process.<br>

I changed sap* to sapl* and everything works finde.
