Hi,

I think u did not enter the sapdpxx in services file.Goto below path

<b>C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\services</b>

set <b>sapdpxx 32xx/tcp</b> in services file(here xx denotes u r instance number).

i hope it will you

Kiran is correct. If this was an existing installation that previously worked, then probably you installed something else that overwrote your services file, replacing it instead of updating it. SAPLogon depends upon these entries in services to correctly identify the TCP ports for connecting to SAP servers.

Check if the user has installed the msn messenger 7.5. In a specific version the services file becomes unusable and windows cannot read it. In this case the erro is "sapdpxx unknow".

Check the note 882741 SAP Logon: "Logon balancing error", service 'sap...' unknown.

Best regards.

Hi,

check sapdp00 service in service file.

check wether your central instance number is '00' or something else

also check the SAP is up or not
