Het. System copy - DB export error

[Former Member]

I am performing a Db migration from Oracle to MSS.

Source System: SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7

Non-unicode System

DB: ORACLE 9.2.0.4.0, kerne; 640

Target DB is MSSQL 2000.

DB export step fails with following error:

MOS-01012 PROBLEM: 'E:\usr\sap\R3I\SYS\exe\run/r3ldctl.exe -l

./R3ldctlExport.log -p H:\SystemCopyofR3I/DATA/ ' returned with '2' which is not

a defined as a success code.

H:\SystemCopyofR3I is the location I gave for it to put the export

files.

R3ldctlExport.log says:

ERROR: failed to open file "H:\SystemCopyofR3I/DATA//SAPSTR.LST"

I checked the permissions on all the folders and they seem okay.

Any Suggestions what i might be doing wrong?

The file was not created under the DATA directory.

Hi Anna,

If the file was not created, then the R3ldctl process got an exception during the export of the database structures. You may run the R3ldctl tool manually. To do this start it from your Oracle application server with the option -p <DATA Dir>. It should create the SAPSTR.LST file at the end. If not you get an error at the end. Search for an appropriate note or post the output.

Sometimes a higher patch level of the R3ldctl tool helps. You may just try the newest from Service Marketplace.

First of all, update R3* tools to the most recent version.

Additionally, run the command manually and check for errors. If everything goes well, open the keydb.xml, look for the the string CDATA[ERROR] (or or something similar) and put OK instead of ERROR, the restart sapinst.

Hope this helps.
