Upgrade - SAP will not restart during MAIN_NEWBAS/STARTSAP_NBAS phase

[Former Member]

We are upgrading from 4.7 to NW 7.0 (SP#5)

SAP will not restart during the phase MAIN_NEWBAS/STARTSAP_NBAS

We had to manually apply the kernel (NW 7.2 -#63 - NON UC). This looks OK when we calll DW -version. The T03 system will not start either through the upgrade tool or manually. There is no useful log in

\usr\sap\T03\DVEBMGS15\work

The upgrade tool reports this error.

Checks after phase MAIN_NEWBAS/STARTSAP_NBAS were negative!

Thanks Rene, I have updated the ticket with the required information. In the mean time I am interested if anyone else had had a similar problem during an upgrade. We did have an initial error with the crtsidusr command ( setting CLASSICUSERCONCEPT + removing some of the SPCAUT) seemed to fix that. At this point the upgrade failed and we had to manually APYSAPKRN, the log shoewed it wanted the NON UC which was odd as we are including the UC in the upgrade.

Thanks

Did you install the proper runtime?
