Installation error - FSL 02003 Unable to set owner for 0

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to install SCS for a HA EP system on AIX server with root user.

The installation has stuck on step "Unpack SAP Archives" with the following error.

TRACE            2015-02-19 17:26:31.623

Node (/sapmnt/<SID>/exe/uc/rs6000_64/icmbnd).getown() done:206

FSL-02003       Unable  to set owner /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/uc/rs6000_64/icmbnd for 0

User ID 0 belongs to user root and the existing permission on icmbnd file is:

-rwxrwxr-x     1     <sid>adm:sapsys     icmbnd

I tried assigning 777 permission to the file, but that did not help. Also tried changing owner of the file to root, but ended up with the following:

chown icmbnd: Operation not permitted

I had set umask as 022 before starting the installation.
Would appreciate hints on resolving this?

Regards,

AJ

Hi,

Need to give a complete restart to the system as well & retry the phase again.

Good luck !!

Hi

The issue should most probably in your /usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/exe  folder

run saproot.sh to set the correct permissions for icmbnd in all the  directories  ( dont manually set permissions like chmod 777 etc  as some files will have sticky bits and some files should have read only permissions )

The best you can do now is  run saproot.sh  ( as root )

then  check the following directories /sapmnt/SID/exe  , all /usr/sap/<SID>/<Instance>/exe

and set the owner as <sid>adm:sapsys .

Once all the installation is complete  run once again saproot.sh

Thanks,

Manu
