Hi All,

The kernel upgrade is once again done with the help of SAP note-1636252-installing-720 rel kernel.

The patch level  was 500 latest one.

After upgrading the kernel in /sapmnt/<SID>/exe, we ran the sapcpe command   so that   global (exe ) executable  directory will do an initial copy   to the below local  paths::

/usr/sap/<SID>/ASCS

/usr/sap/<SID>DVEBMGSxx/

/usr/sap/<SID>/SCS

Now the system is up & running !!!!

Hi Bharatram,

Kindly check the permission for icmbnd file which is available in the kernel folder. Kindly set the below permissions for Icmbnd file by logging in as a root user.

chown root:sapsys icmbnd

chmod 4750 icmbnd

Also make sure that the below mentioned parameter is available in the web-dispatcher profile if you are using any external web-dispatcher for mapping the ports.

icm/server_port_1 = PROT=HTTPS,PORT=443,EXTBIND=1

Restart the system once.Hope this would resolve the issue.

Best Regards

Hi,

Please check if icmbnd file exists in directory which is set as DIR_EXECUTABLE

Also check below mentioned note for authorization issues:

SAP Note 421359  ICM: Binding ports < 1024 on Unix

Hello

Check the permission of the icmbnd file present in the DIR_CT_RUN directory.

Run saproot.sh SID and most probably you might have to restart the SAP system

Hi,

Have you set this parameters in the icm.

icm/server_port_1    = PROT=HTTPS, PORT=443, EXTBIND=1

On UNIX systems, you need root access to bing to ports less than 1024. You can achieve this by using the external program icmbnd

Thanks

Hi Ram,

First do clean the shared memory, and then you can try the below steps to set the correct permission for icmbnd file

cd /sapmnt/<sid>/exe

take a copy of icmbnd

chown root:sapsys icmbnd

chmod 4750 icmbnd

Hi Ram

Kindly refer the SAP KBA 1872990 - various error messages related to incorrect resolution of
localhost - refer the error message "NiIBindSocket"

What is the permission of icmbnd ? Have you run saproot.sh after kernel upgrade ? If not, then please run this.

Thanks
