Problem installing Database Instance

Former Member

Help,

I am installing the WAS 640 SR1 Abap on a sandbox running Windows 2003 Server.

I've installed Oracle.

Installed the Central Instance.

But when I try to install the database instance with SAPInst, it gets to the stage:

Prepare Oracle Network Configuration

It then copies the Listener.ora and creates a new file Listener.1.ora

Then the installation fails with the message:

Unable to set time for file listener.1.ora

Does anyone know how to solve this and continue the installation ?

Thanks,

Tomas.

Hi,

I solved it in the end and here's how I did it:

I backed up the originals of the tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora and listener.ora

then I renamed the originals of all three to something else which mean't that to SAPInst they didn't exist

then I ran the installation and SAPInst worked fine because it created new files for each which it had no problem doing instead of trying to modify and save the original.

Tomas.
