Hi Abu,

We had faced the same problem long back and had to fix the ownership/file permission of the file sapuxuserchk in both kernel locations /sapmnt/SID/exe and /usr/sap/SID/DVEBMGSXX/exe. It is expected on OS AIX 6.1.

Hope it resolves your problem.

Thanks,

Hi,

Sometimes, this issue comes on AIX because of security mechanism of sapstartsrv. SAP note 1140980 will help you to resolve this error. Please also check 323816.

Thanks

Hi,

Was the sidadm password changed during the course of upgrade or in recent times ?

Thanks for your quick response.

Yes , password has been changed recently after the SAP installation , not during EHPI installation, I have started EHPI with the new password of EHPI.

I am running this on AIX 6.1 hacmp HA environment

The system is running in a distributed environment. To be able to proceed, the <SID>adm user will be utilized. Enter the password for the <SID>adm user. In case you are using a Windows domain user, please enter the domain user password.

Hi,

Please ensure that sidadm user's password has been updated on all your servers. Later try again with the ehpi installation.
