Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 SR1 - SWPM10 looks for different install export

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am trying to install Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 SR1 on Windows 2008/Oracle however I am facing an error about the installation export media during the Define Parameters step. The media I downloaded from the Marketplace are the ones indicated in the SAP media list document but still swpm looks for different export CD. Swpm looks for SAP:SOLMAN:7.0:EXPORT while what I have is SAP:SOLMAN:701SR1:EXPORT.

Below is the exact error:

"Found the label SAP:SOLMAN:701SR1:EXPORT(1/4):SAP EHP 1 SR1 for Solution Manager 7.0 Installation Export CD 1/4:CDxxxxxx_1 but need the label SAP:SOLMAN:7.0:EXPORT(1/4):*.*"

Here is the media list:

SWPM - 70SWPM10SP01_3-20009707.sar

51040438_1 - SAP SOLMAN 7.0 EHP1 SR1 Inst. Export 1

51040438_2 - SAP SOLMAN 7.0 EHP1 SR1 Inst. Export 2

51045180 - SAP SOLMAN 7.0 EHP1 SR1 Java based SW Comp.s for SWPM

51045220_6 - 720_EXT UC Kernel for SWPM - Windows Server on x64 64bit

51045220_8  - SL CONTROLLER 720 for SWPM

In swpm, below is how I navigated to solution manager installation:

SAP Installation Master > SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 Support Release 1 > SAP Systems > Oracle > Central System > Central System

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,

Bryan

Bryan,

We have the exact same issue, were you able to resolve your issue ? It does look like SAP has changed the media on 2/11/2013

SAP Inst does not seem to like the Export DVD : 51040438

Here is what we are using :

70SWPM10SP01_3-20009707.sar - Software Provisioning Manager 1.0 SP 01 for NW 7.0x

51045180 - Java DVD for SWPM10

51045213 - SAP Kernel DVD for installation SWPM10

51045213_8   SL CONTROLLER 720 for SWPM

51040438_1 - Export 1 DVD

51040438_2 - Export 2 DVD

Do let us know if you have passed thru this issue.

Thanks,

Hi Uday,

No not yet. I am still searching for answers. I would create an OSS message but our new SAP systems are still to be added and configured to our s-user account. Until then, we'll have to find answer over the net.

I'll keep you posted.

My issue is now resolved.

Here is the instruction from SAP to resolve the issue:

- stop installation

- backup your packages.xml from your installation dir and

- Modify your packages.xml (refer to changes below)

- run again installation with continue option

packages.xml:

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (1/2)"

name="EXPORT1" label="SAP:SOLMAN:7.0:EXPORT(1/4):*:*"/>

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (1/2)"

name="EXPORT2" label="SAP:SOLMAN:7.0:EXPORT(2/4):*:*"/>

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (2/2)"

name="EXPORT3" label="SAP:SOLMAN:7.0:EXPORT(3/4):*:*"/>

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (2/2)"

name="EXPORT4" label="SAP:SOLMAN:7.0:EXPORT(4/4):*:*"/>

with:

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (1/2)"

name="EXPORT1" label="SAP:SOLMAN:701SR1:EXPORT(1/4):*:*"/>

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (1/2)"

name="EXPORT2" label="SAP:SOLMAN:701SR1:EXPORT(2/4):*:*"/>

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (2/2)"

name="EXPORT3" label="SAP:SOLMAN:701SR1:EXPORT(3/4):*:*"/>

<package mediaName="Installation Export SOLMAN 7.0 (2/2)"

name="EXPORT4" label="SAP:SOLMAN:701SR1:EXPORT(4/4):*:*"/>

I encountered the same type of error again during the SL Controller input part. So I just performed the above steps (modified packages.xml and changed the version of sl controller from "SAP:SAPLUP:700" to "SAP:SAPLUP:720") to resolve the issue.
