Hi,

> IDES:idsadm 9> pwd

> /sapmnt/IDS/exe

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

> IDES:idsadm 10> ./tp pf=TP_DOMAIN_IDS.PFL connect

> IDS

> This is ./tp version 340.16.24 (release 640)

> E-TP_DOMAIN_IDS.PFL could not be opened.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You are starting tp in /sapmnt/IDS/exe, but your tp parameter file (TP_DOMAIN_IDS.PFL) is usually located elsewhere (usually /usr/sap/trans/bin).

Look for the tp parameter file, cd to that directory and try again.

Best regards,

Elmar.

Or use TA STMS do call tp, if the TMS is set up correctly, these problems should not occur.

Yes,

the tp command should look like this:

[code]$> tp pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/TP_DOMAIN_IDS.PFL connect IDS[/code]

In my case the return values are as follows:

[code]$> tp pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/TP_DOMAIN_BEN.PFL connect BEN

This is tp version 370.01.01 (release 700, unicode enabled)

Warning: Parameter DBHOST is no longer used.

Warning: Parameter DBNAME is no longer used.

Connection to Database of BEN was successful.

This is R3trans version 6.14 (release 700 - 28.11.06 - 18:05:00).

unicode enabled version

R3trans finished (0000).

tp finished with return code: 0

meaning:

Everything OK[/code]

Best Regards,

Hi.

I have a similar problem, Im in upgrade from ECC 5 non unicode to ECC 6 unicode, but if I try

srcrd1sa005:qasadm 150> tp unlocksys QAS pf=/usr/sap/trans/bin/TP_DOMAIN_QAS.PFL

initial value of NLS_LANG: 'AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8DEC'

This is tp version 372.05.88 (release 700)

Warning: Parameter DBLIBPATH is no longer used.

Warning: Parameter DBSWPATH is no longer used.

tp finished with return code: 0

meaning:

  Everything OK

Its said that is ok, but system still lock, and if I try

srcrd1sa005:qasadm 151> tp unlocksys QAS

initial value of NLS_LANG: 'AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8DEC'

This is tp version 372.05.88 (release 700)

E-TPSETTINGS could not be opened.

EXIT

Error in TPSETTINGS: transdir not set.

tp returncode summary:

TOOLS: Highest return code of single steps was: 0

Thanks and regards!!

Hi Amandeep Singh Kahlon,

The SAPEVTPATH parameter must point directly to the sapevt executable.

Add the lines in the following file:

/usr/sap/trans/bin/TPPARAM: 

#import by event parameters                                            
<SID>/impdp_by_event      = yes                                        
<SID>/sapevtpath          = /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run/sapevt   

Adapt the follwing lines to the proper dir. and filename:

<SID>/startsap = <path and name of startsap-file> r3    

Carefully follow these instructions and edit the: /usr/sap/trans/bin/TPPARAM

You will need to restart the system for SAPEVT to be recognised

with which command did you start tp? Can you please post your command, thx? It will help to debug the error in case the above changes does not help.

Best Regards,

Hannes Kuehnemund
