Hi guys,

well i am kind of new to Linux, therefore i need some help!

How to start the configtool?! I need to set some variables but al i have in the folder is a .bat and .sh to start. .bat i can't use and running the configtool.sh is giving me the error:

java class not found: com.sap.engine.offline.OfflineToolStart

I already set JAVA_HOME, PATH and CLASSPATH, also installed the newest IBM-Java-Version needed for NW2004 SR2.

Can somebody help me on this issue?!

br, Jens

Just an idea,

what about adding lib path /opt/IBMJava2-amd64-142/lib to the PATH variable, and trying again?

Hi Jens,

How you are accessing..config tool.(through admin or any other user)

If you check using the command "ls -l " in the folder of config tool and also

in -- >C:\usr\sap\<SID>\JC<XX>\j2ee\admin\log\console_logs

and check the owner..if it's root then you need to use administrator role else give the permission to your current user (sapsys)

if the above folder shows as root you will getting java class not found exception and your config tool won't work. so, give permission to SAPSYS and try.

even if you try to execute admin tool also, it throws exception.

Hope that helps

Oracle.

So another question:

how to set the JAVA_HOME and PATH permanently for the root user?!

I created a profile.local file where these are described but when i put them in root/etc folder nothing changed after restarting!

Where do i have to put it?! Or do i have to do it another way...?!

Hi Jens,

You shouldn't be using root to run Visual Admin or ConfigTool.

Run sap tools, with sap users.

You can find .sh or .csh

like : CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$/sqllib/java/runtime.zip:.
