Unable to run sapinst on HP-UX PA-RISC 11.11

0 Kudos

Hi everyone,

I have a problem when I run the sapinst, on HP-UX PA-RISC 11.11, that extracted from 70SWPM10SP04_03-200009699.sar. After I start and sapinst runnig for a while, it stop and no sapinstgui pop up. I look in the /temp/sapinst_instdir for log, it empty. I already patch the O/S to according to the Note#837670 (more updated that the note sugguestion) and set the O/S kernel follow Note#172747. Below is the screen out put.

/sourcesap/SWPM1.0# ./sapinst

The process that should run the SAPinst GUI could not be started. Please make sure that a JDK is installed on this host and

that SAPINST_JRE_HOME points to the root directory of your Java installation. As an alternative you may start the GUI on

another host (for details please consult the installation guide).

Java has been started with the following command line:

guiengine: No GUI server connected; waiting for a connection on host gfux051, port 21212 to continue with the installation


Please help. Any idea, comment is welcome.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello

Have you set the display ?

Also check the ulimts of the user.

Make sure the SAPINST_JRE_HOME points to the right JAVA installation path.

RB

Hi Reagan,

Yes, I do set the display. For you infor, I can start the sapinstgui separately.

The SAPINST_JRE_HOME also point to the right JAVA home (I hope), /opt/java1.4/jre.

I run the sapinst with root user. Anyway, ulimit is still my doubt. since I can not set data value to 'unlimited'. I check with hp document; http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/System-Administration/changing-ulimit/td-p/5401937#.UtEa4lsW1yw, it can not set. i trace in /temp/sapinst_exe...I found that there is one command, "ulimit -d unlimited". I try use this command manually, I got the error same as the second line in output sreen that I post

ulimit: The specified value exceeds the user's allowable limit.

Thanks & Regards,

Somchid

Hello Somchid

In that case I would set the ulimit to a value than unlimited and see if that helps.

RB

Hi Reagan,

the ulimit can not increase the data value it max that can adjust unless the O/S kernel is increase. the thing is I don't know which O/S kernel need to increase to make the Data in ulimit increase? please advise. Attached is current O/S kernal parameter.

Hi Reagan,

So, I need to increase the maxdsiz and maxdsiz_64, isn't it? I will try and let you know the result in a few day. Anyway, the reason that I want to start the sapinst is to move the ABAP+JAVA db stack from HP-UX PA-RISC to HP-UX IA with the sam SID.  Just an idea, is it possible do a fresh installation ABAP+JAVA in HP-UX IA and then restore db from HP-UX PA-RISC?

Thans and reguards,

Somchid S.

Hello Somchid

Please read this SAP note

612796 - Move to HP-UX Itanium systems

and if you the database is Oracle then also consider this SAP note

671804 - Oracle database migration from HP-UX PA-Risc to Itanium

Hi Reagan,

now, I can start the sapinst on HP-UX 11.11 PA-RISC. I did for two thing.

1) increase maxdsiz and maxdsiz_64bin

2) I change the JAVA_HOME from /opt/java1.4 to /opt/java1.5 and SAPINST_JAVA_HOME=/opt/java1.5/jre

anyway the installation can go on but not sapinstgui, which I need to star the sapinstgui manaully.

thanks & regards,

Somchid S.
