Hi,

We are patching a dual stack(abap+java) nw04 system from sp9 to sp20.

Abap patching is completed and the java patching is stopping at deploy_online phase.We are getting an error message saying " the SDM call of deploySdaList returns with return code4".

Hi,

After applying Abap patches, bounce the SAP all. clean the buffer ( as sid<adm> cleanipc intance remove). apply again.

one more things, how are you applying java patches? did u download four .car files and they need to be extracted in sequence? are you following sequence?

Thanks,

Hi Afi,

I have extracted the car files in a sequence only. Could you please tell me what do you mean by bouncing the SAP all and could you please help me in how to clean the buffer?

OK Here are some steps;

Bounce means stop and start it again; do the follwing;

1. stop sap

2. stop saposcol: as <sid>adm, saposcol -k

3. as <sid>adm: unix level command- cleanipc (instance #) remove

5. start it again.

Hopfully, it will work for you.

Take care. If u are based on windows, try to search to clean buffer in os level for windows. I think it should be the same for WINDOWS... or if u dont feel confirtable cleaning buffer or having hard time to understand, just restart your machine. it will do it auto.........

thanks
