SAP IDES ECC 6.0 Installation Problems

[Former Member]

Hello experts!

I have some problems with an installation of IDES mySAP ERP 2005 /ECC 6.0 on MS SQL 2005 Database. (Based on AS ABAP)

I set up 3072 GB of Memory and 13 GB for Swap.

The MS sql Native Client is installed and I also installed the SP1 for it.

The problem occours during the installation of the Central Instance (CI).

This is an extract of the sapinst.log:

INFO 2007-02-09 14:57:33

State of instance IDS/DVEBMGS00 changed from ABAP: STARTING to ABAP: STARTING.

ERROR 2007-02-09 14:57:33

CJS-30105 Instance IDS/DVEBMGS00 reached state UNKNOWN after having state STARTING. Giving up.

ERROR 2007-02-09 14:57:33

F

In the process list of my system the disp+work.EXE process is stopped...

The system log shows some errors like that:

SAP-Basis System: Initialization DB-Connect Failed, Return Code 000256

and

SAP-Basis System: Message server disconnected

What could be the problem here? Hope you can help.

Hello Lukas,

I take it that your CI and DB is on the same server.

1. Have you set the environment variables (system variables) for the SQL Server?

2. Try to run r3trans -x and r3trans -d

3. Review oss note 331082

Hope this helps.

Hello,

When your CI is on different host than database you must install SQL Native Client on CI host.

Check also DB instance name and host address in
winnt\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file.
