Hi folks,
I can only run the command startsap from /sapmnt/<SID>/exe or /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe run as <sid>adm.
If I try to run the command from /tmp or /, for instance ..., nothing happens.
I checked the environment variables and the path and libpath variables have the /sapmnt/<SID>/exe or /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe setup.
Has anyone faced that before?
Thanks a lot,
M'a

Thank you all.
The issue was related to the environment file.
Hi Marillia,
Nice to hear your issue has been resolved.Kindly close the thread.

Hi,
Could you share env variables for user <sid>adm to check for the value of PATH variable ? Please follow steps below to share the result.
su - <sid>adm
> env
<sid>adm> echo $PATH
/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run:/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:/usr/bin/X11:/sbin:/usr/java5/jre/bin:/usr/java5/bin:/usr/lbin:/home/<sid>adm
Hello,
What do you mean by "nothing happens"? You mean that the instance does not start?
Or your operating system returns something like "command not found"?
Maybe posting a screenshot could help .
In addition, when you are at /sapmnt/<SID>/exe, for example, do you execute "./startsap" or just "startsap"?

Nothing happens. No message appears and the command is not executed.
When I run the command ./startsap or startsap from /sapmnt/<SID>/exe and works.
What is the output of "which startsap"?
And if you execute "startsap" from /tmp, for example, is any file updated at the "/home/<SID>adm" folder?
nope. No file is generated or updated in /home/<SID>adm folder.
The output is nothing. Run the startsap and press enter, the next line is empty
Hi Marilia,
The issue is with your environment do check .sapenv.csh and .dbenv.csh files for the paths of your exe directories.
Also does your user have a .profile in /home/<SID>adm.
You may need to revisit the enviroment how its setup and default shell for the user.
try to run csh command and then run stopsap or startsap command and update us.
And do confirm the contents of the /usr/sap/sapservices file.

Hi Marillia
Are you using the user id SIDADM to start the SAP system?

This is certainly an environment issue.
Sounds like a path problem as it works when you are standing on the directory, but even with that it should say something like command not found.
Review your env variables.

In addition, is this a server running Linux? Or which UNIX (AIX, Solaris, ...)?
What is the shell in use ("env|grep SHELL" should show you this)?
Hi Isaias,
There is no output
It is an UNIX system
the env command that you wrote me, gave me this output -> SHELL=/usr/bin/ksh
Hello Marilia,
"which startsap" does not return anything??
I run it from /tmp, for example:
startsap r3 <enter>
The next line does not appear nothing.
OK.....
But what is the output from the command below?
which startsap
==> that is the complete command... "which <command>" will show from where the <command> will be executed
==> for example, you have the startsap at the /sapmnt/... and at the /usr/sap/... folder structures
executing "which startsap" will show from which startsap ( ) command will be used (from /sapmnt or from /usr/sap)
------------
so, what is the output from "which startsap" when executed from /tmp and /sapmnt/<SID>/exe?
It should return the same result...
From /sapmnt/<SID>/exe and /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run - the command startsap runs without any errors
from any other path nothing happens.
