Deployment Error

[Former Member]

I made a simple example demo as described in the tuturial and tried deploying it. It gives me a error

deployment exception : Cannot determine sdm host (is empty). Please configure your engine/sdm correctly !

There are lots of suggestions given on this topic. I tried everything out but it still does not help. I checked windows->showview->j2ee enginee. I find dispatcher and server0 running with green icons. But I don't see SDM running. I checked the log files to see if SDM is started and it says "SDM started Successfully". I tried shutting down the SDM server manually using stopserver.bat. But it gives me an error "SDM server shutdown not finished after 600 seconds. Giving up.

Processing error. Return code: 4"

I also tried deploying using the software deployment manager and it gives me a error

Starting Deployment of CalculatorEar

Aborted: development component 'CalculatorEar'/'sap.com'/'localhost'/'2005.04.12.10.31.37':

SDM could not start the J2EE cluster on the host mhpa4bxc! The online deployment is terminated. JStartup Framework is not able to deliver an information about the cluster control instances! Please check the status of the J2EE Engine

(message ID: com.sap.sdm.serverext.servertype.inqmy.extern.EngineApplOnlineDeployerImpl.performAction(DeploymentActionTypes).STARTUP_CLUSTER)

Deployment of CalculatorEar finished with Error (Duration 1562 ms)

I would be very thankful for your help..

Hi Amitesh,

You could also try one of the following methods:

1) Deploy the application using the DEPLOY command from the DEPLOY group in the Shell Console Administrator. For more info:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/fa/40a2ab95dc08429e60bd467df91943/frameset.htm

In brief:

telnet <host> 50008

[supply administrator user name and password]

> jump 0

> add deploy

> deploy <ear-file>

2) Deploy the application using the Deploy Service runtime controls in the Visual Administrator. For more info:

Hope that helps,

Hi,

I had exactely the same problem and found the solution here:

After I changed the entry in /etc/hosts, everything went smooth.
