J2EE Upgrade Problem

[Former Member]

Hi Experts im upgrading a stack of a SOLMAN 7.01 from SP 22 to 30 and at the configuration part in Java im getting this error:

Error while executing Task with input file ReadInstanceProps.xml and task READ_INSTANCE_PROPS. Could not read properties. Error while reading properties from /usr/sap/SOL/DVEBMGS00/j2ee/cluster/instance.properties. Variables [/J2EE/StandardSystem/CentralInstance/J2EEDirectory, /J2EE/StandardSystem/CentralInstance/BoxNumber] not found. A possible reason can be that the start release is lower than 6.40 SPS09.

this is the SUM/READ-INSTANCE-PROPS_03.LOG:

Hello experts,

I've been reviewing the file /usr/sap/SOL/DVEBMGS00/j2ee/cluster/instance.properties

is where the SUM looks for the variables and i dont find I find neither:

[/J2EE/StandardSystem/CentralInstance/J2EEDirectory, /J2EE/StandardSystem/CentralInstance/BoxNumber]

Hi Alejandro,

Please check the parameter in instance properties file

instance.install.dir=/usr/sap/SOL/DVEBMS00/j2ee is present or not.

Hello Experts,

the instance.box.number parameter it is OK in the Configtool this are the properties:

hostname

SOLMAN

SAPSYSTEMNAME           SOL

SAPSYSTEM               00

INSTANCE_NAME           DVEBMGS00

BOX NUMBER

SOLDVEBMGS00SOLMAN

Why the system was not seeing this parameter?

Hi Palazon,

Goto the directory and open the instance.box.number parameter.

It is compromise <SAPSID><instancedirectory><hostname>.

Now open the config tool and check the parameter over there

Hi,

It looks to me that SUM tools is not able to read the instance.properties or is reading the wrong details .Please check that the cluster details are correct. Was this system built via system copy?

Please provide the kernel details installed on the solman.

What is the SUM tool version that you are using.

1401712 - JSPM/SAPJup/SAPehpi/SUM cannot detect all cluster instances

Thanks
