Pb during LiveCache update from 7.5 to 7.7

[former_member245712]

Hello all.

I'm currently upgrading my SCM 4.1 system to SCM 7.01.

During this process I need to upgrade my Livecache from MaxDB 7.5 to 7.7.

I've already made this upgrade on my sandbox system without any issue.

Unfortunately, on my dev system, I get this error message at the end of the LCUPDATE program:

setting up unicode liveCache...

cannot finish instance update for "LCD"

setting up unicode liveCache...

setting up liveCache failed

exec_lcinit init -e unicode

When I have a look at the lcinit.log file, I see this error message:

Creating user SAPLCD with DEFAULTCODE UNICODE

ERR

-24996,ERR_PARAM: Wrong parameters

I tried this command to check the SAPLCD password in the upc file:

dbmcli on LCD>sql_execute user-type=SAP select user from dual

ERR

-24988,ERR_SQL: SQL error

-4008,Unknown user name/password combination

So I decided to update the file with this command:

---

dbmcli on LCD>user_sap SAPLCD,xxxxxx

ERR

-24996,ERR_PARAM: Wrong parameters

Unfortunately, it seems I'm not able to change the password, and cannot perform the rest of my upgrade.

Does anyone have an idea that could help me ?

Have a nice day.

Sébastien.

I've found the solution.

SAPLCD password was beginning with a figure and obviously, it's better not to.

So I changed the password with Database manager and use command user_sap to change it in the upc file, and then was able to finish my LiveCache upgrade.

Hello Sebastien,

Update the thread with the ouput of the dbm commands below:

dbmcli on LCD>sql_execute select * from users

dbmcli on LCD>user_getall
