License upgrade program for demo NSP version

[Former Member]

My NSP 2004 preview has expired and I requested a new license from the website. I got the email with a new license. But when I tried to update the license, I got the following error. What is wrong? Urgent, please help.

C:\usr\sap\NSP\DVEBMGS00\exe>saplicense -install HFKOTJYWCWA9DPVZPZ7N8YB1

• SAPLICENSE (Release 700) ERROR ***

ERROR: Can not set DbSl trace function

Try using the SLICENSE transaction code. It should work.

If you can not get onto the system, set your system date back to a date when the license was valid. Start the engine, log on, go to transactoin SLICENSE, apply the new license, log off, change system date back to current date, and re-start engine.

Thats what I tried. But I get the error

• SAPLICENSE (Release 700) ERROR ***

ERROR: Can not set DbSl trace function

DETAILS: DbSlControl(DBSL_CMD_IMP_FUNS_SET) failed with return code 20

RC-INFO: error loading dynamic db-library - check environment for:

DIR_LIBRARY = <path to db-dll> (e.g. /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run)

I also learn that I have to set environment variables using dbenv.cmd.

But I cannot find the file dbenv.cmd on my system.

What can I do ?

Hello All and mr Heilman,

situation during license refresh: installed system_nr = 311147814 with HWID key let say Q12....956

NB This has been checked used SLICENSE and saplicense -get

Problem is that SAP delivered new license key for NSP is <defining> a wrong system_nr! [in this case 311263843!

As SLICENSE loads new key, it errors while finding a not relevant system_nr...

How can this please be resolved?

I cannot set back time continuously.

kind regards,

robert t. bosch

Hello,

If you get a new license for another system number than for what the temporary license is installed:

In transaction SLICENSE:

1. Delete temporary license

2. Switch to new licenses

3. Delete permanent license that is expired which comes with the standard installation

4. Choose button install and load file NSP.txt

The new license will be installed correctly.

Kind regards,

Jeroen

You can use SLICENSE in ABAP, however for me it started to hang.

Or use command prompt in the name of nspadm and type saplicense -install WITHOUT the install key. You have to enter the license key in the coming dialog.

I found my notes for WA1, but it's the same for NSP.
