Problem with sapcontrol

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I wounder if someone could explain something.

If I issue the folowing command it works and returns the correct information:-

sapcontrol -nr 20 -user <sid>adm <password> -function GetEnvironment

If I issue the following command it sort of works but gives a non-zero returncode:-

sapcontrol -nr 20 -function OSExecute "ls" 0 30

08.11.2010 12:01:26

OSExecute

OK

exitcode, pid, lines

2, 27013

If I issue the following command it gives an error:-

sapcontrol -nr 20 -user <sid>adm <password> -function OSExecute "ls" 0 30

08.11.2010 11:52:14

OSExecute

FAIL: Invalid Credentials

Can anyone tell me why I get Invalid credentials on the last command when the same credentials work on the first command?

Thank you

Thank you for your response.

I have updated my system to the latest Kernel but I am still getting the problem.

I don't know what you mean by try "ll".

hi

i nt sure abt the exact cause, but as per the sap note [877795 |https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=877795](Please refer section 25) there was the child processing problem in OSexecute.

if you are doing this for slm connection, just try it with "ll" once or follow the maual
