UaServer not starting

[Former Member]

I've read thru TJ Wilkinson's informative post on the UaServer error he was seeing and it corrected my initial error but now I've hit another one.

I'm upgrading from 4.6C ASCII to ECC 6.0 SR1. I'm to the point where I'm starting the Upgrade Assistant Server but I'm getting the following java errors right after I enter in the admin passwords:

UaServer> Stable storage file '/usr/sap/put/ua/UaState' read

Please enter administrator password

Enter password:

> ecc600

Confirm password:

> ecc600

Can anyone help me get to the cause of the error(s)?

Are the requirements for ua met?

Is 5722AC3 installed? As of V5R3 and lower.

Is 5722JV1 Option 6 installed, including all PTFs?

If YES, which OS-release is installed?

Regards

Hi Mark,

depending on the speed you need to upgrade, you could even use the scroll mode. With a batch version - described in a note - this is running really good as well. I always use that ...
