Hello,
Please try uninstalling and reinstalling the service
as explained in the following Note(Point 3):
142100 - NT: Problems with new SAP service as of Rel. 4.5B
CreateNamedPipe for
sapbon1s57\pipe\SAPT02_00 Failed,
Point 3 of this
You should uninstall the service by selecting:
'Uninstall Service + Unregister COM Interface'
Then reinstall the service by:
'Install Service + Register COM Interface + Start Service'
Make sure that you have called SAPSTARTSRV.EXE from a command prompt
from within the usr\sap\<SID>\kernel directory ! The startup user
should be <domain>\SAPService<SID>.
Also check you have up to date version of
sapntwaitforhalt.exe
