STMS --> TRANSPORT TOOL ERROR DB CONNECT : LINK TO BD FAILED ? HELP

[Former Member]

HAI,

i have installed a new sandbox with SAP 4.7c x200 , on windows 2003 and 64 bit kernel.

I have to apply support packages to it .

After fresh installation , i configured TMS and now when i check the tp as

STMS>OVERVIEW>SYSTEMS>SAP SYSTEM>CHECK-->TRANSPORT TOOLS , there a tree structure opens and everything is fine except the tree part tp call having DB CONNECT : LINNK TO DATABASE FAILED AND

offline call having CONNECT FAILED DUOE TO DBSL LOAD FAIL

these two comes in yellow and when i follow the detail it gives a pop up message

as below:

This is tp version 340.16.24 (release 640)

Warning: Parameter DBHOST is no longer used.

Warning: Parameter DBNAME is no longer used.

ERROR: No connect due to DbSl Load Lib Failure

ERROR: environment variable dbms_type is not set.

ERROR: Connect to UPG failed (20071102130751).

INFO: no trace information stored

tp returncode summary:

TOOLS: Highest return code of single steps was: 0

ERRORS: Highest tp internal error was: 0249

standard output from tp and from tools called by tp:

So when i apply package it stops in CHECK_REQUIREMENT PHASE indicating that connection with db failed, also whe i reun to connect it is giving everything fine

Hi,

please try to set the env variable 'dbms_type=mss' globally - just to make sure that we don't get confused here by specific users. I think tp should run under the account SAPService<SID>. Lets see what happens then...

Hi,

is the env variable dbms_type set? If so, globally or user specific?
