Hi Thom,

you may use the <b>SM59</b> and there the "connection test" of the TCP/IP destination SAPDB_DBM. There is also a trace option and this will produce some trace files during the connection test in the directory DIR_HOME of the <b>AL11</b> (e.g. dbmrfc.trc, dev_sapdbmrfc and rfc<nnnnn>_<xxxxx>.trc). These are the counterparts to the dev_rfc0 file already found by yourself. Please do not forget to uncheck the trace option after the test.

But using the dbmrfc implies you are a SAP customer so you may also check our OSS notes with the error message as search string. There is a lot of stuff about the dbmrfc. If you could not solve the problem by yourself the better way will be to open an OSS call.

Best regards

Hi Thom,

here we have the problem:

<b>> 'Files\sdb\programs\bin\dbmrfc.exe' not found</b>

Please do not install the MaxDB software on a SAP application server in a directory containing spaces in its name. There is a weakness in the operating system call which starts the dbmrfc which gives the dbmrfc process a garbled argument vector.

This path may caused by a standalone MaxDB installation which uses the defaults of the operating system before on your machine. Normally the installation of an SAP application including MaxDB software will use a path without spaces.

Unfortunately you have to uninstall an reinstall your whole MaxDB software to change this path.

Best regards

Hello!

Thank you very much for your help!

Unfortunately I cannot reinstall the SAP DB software, because I use the system productively.

<b>Is there no other possiblities to do this?</b>

How critical is this dbmrfc-error?

Thank you!
