Minisap install gone all wrong

[Former Member]

I used the uninstall, which failed to get rid of the database. The database management tool asks for a userid/password but does not recognise the password so won't uninstall the maxdb database. Is there any maxdb admin userid/password I can use? Or how can I delete the database so I can reinstall minisap?

thanks .... ANdy

Hello Andy,

By default the database manager is

user: control

password: control

This are the default values, but you can choose another password during installation.

Kind regards,

Klaus

Yes i would suggest you to uninstall everything & install again.

I tried 'control' and the password I specified in the install and it does not recognise it. I tried control/control as well, same error. I believe there is a SAPURDBA/admin user that I can use or SAPNSP/sap. Have you come across these userids?

You could try the following:

Open a command-line console and write:

dbmcli -d NSP -u control,<password> db_offline

and if it works

dbmcli -d NSP -u control,<password> db_drop

This will drop your DB instance and allow you to unistall the DB software.

Klaus
