Thanks

Not sure how, but it might be your server (OS) related problem as well, may be this problem might not arise on another server, but still not sure.

However, you can wait for another higher kernel patch to be released and then you can update the kernel to the latest one. As of now you may go for patch level 137 throughout the landscape as we should all the systems consistent with same kernel patch level, until new one gets released.

Hi,

Please check AIX 6.1 TL level compatibility SAP note. May be your system TL level is not upto date.

permissions of foler 'lib' under the folder 'jkit' was 644 (after extraction), now i change it as 777 and redo extraction but same error, pls help me

[former_member188883]

Hi,

SAPCAR: error decompressing jkit/lib/tools.jar (cslib error -22)

This error comes as a result that during extraction it is not able to overwrite existing SAPCAR file. As it is in use durin .SAR file extractions.

You use the following option to avoid such issues.

copy the existing SAPCAR to another location say /usr/sap/trans

Then while extracting the kernel files type the following command

> /usr/sap/trans/SAPCAR -xvf <path of Kernel SAR files>

Hope this helps.

[former_member188883]

Hi ,

It seems to me that your .SAR file is corrupted. You will need to download the same and try extraction again.
