I faced the same problem as above when applying PI 7.1 SP 09 JAVA stack with JSPM with a SPSTab.xml file uploaded to EPS/in from SAP marketplace.

In the SCAN_INBOX_XX.LOG I can see:

[Info]: Scanning Inbox for stack definition files...

Feb 10, 2010 7:33:23 PM [Error]: org.xml.sax.SAXException has occurred: XML document structures must start and end within the same entity.

Feb 10, 2010 7:33:23 PM [Error]: /usr/sap/transpi/EPS/in/SPSTab.xml is not a valid stack definition file.

Feb 10, 2010 7:33:23 PM [Info]: Scanning Inbox for stack definition files has finished.

I was not able to get the JSPM to read the SPSTab.xml .

Solution:

1. Upgrade first JSPM to correct patch level.

2. Restart JSPM

Then follow the steps below and you will get your patches in the EPS/in directory

3. Change the permission for all the SCA and SDA files in the EPS/in directory to 777 including your STSTab.xml file.

4. Select Single support stack(advanced use) and no NWDI option.

5. It will read the queue and validate it.

Then the SP stack was correct applied.

Thank you folks!

Hello Peter,

When you download the desired SPnn from the service market place, did you also generate an SPSTab.xml file ?

All the target Java SP files will be .SCA files and should be present in the EPS\in directory.

If you still get an error, please let us know the contents of your EPS\in directory as well as paste an excerpt of exception from JSPM.TRC file here.

Hi Peter,

Have you copies the SCA and SDA files into your /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in directory?

You have to copy all the SCA and SDA files downloaded with Support Pack stack to the above directory and then give a try.

Hi Rajesh,

If i not right first copy the SCA and SDA files into your /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in directory from DVD.

Then i need to select Support Package Stack and No NWDI

[Former Member]

Hi Peter,

It depends upon which support pack you are going.

What support pack you are on ABAP stack same you should go for Java stack also.

If that is available on your DVD then you can download it from there else you have to download it from market place.

I never use to select the complete stack but

- First we have to apply the JSPM patch.

- In second step we have to go for the remaining components.

Best Wishes

Hi,

Just palce all the sca files in the eps/in also paste the xml file which jspm reads and reconizes as the stack which you would go. JSPM will itself take care of all the things it will apply patch for itself and asks you to restart once it is done then it will apply the patches for other components.

if u have downloaded the stack definition XML File, on log tab page check SCAN_INBOX_xx.LOG For errors"

Please help me in this regards,

You download SAR or CAR files, when you extract them using SAPCAR you have sca or sda files. These sda/sca files have to be in /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in. No other file types, no ASC what so ever. If you don't have the xml stack you have to choose "single support packages" in JSPM. If that all is taken care of and if the patches are not found then there might be some environment variable wrong.

Hi,

As far as i know there would be no sar or car files for java pataches,only sca or sda file or ear files would be there,

It isi not a problem just select single package and proceed but place all the files in the eps/in it will apply the patches for all the components even you select only single component while starting the jspm.

If you still want to remove the message you want then just go to market place and then browse the java support packages and just download the xml file and then paste it in eps/in that would do.

The initial post was talking about SPs and they come in SAR/CAR files. May be the inital poster can comment if he has SAR/CAR file or some other files he would like to deploy.

Hi,

It sometimes happen that the validation of the queue could not be completed as we download the files as the zip format and the stack queue calculation can not validate the queue with this format.I faced the same problem while validating the queue.

Follow few more steps only and you will get your patches in the EPS/in directory:

1)Change the permission for all the SCA and SDA files in the EPS/in directory to 777 including your STSTab.xml file.

2)Select Single support stack(advanced use) and no NWDI option.

3)It will read the queue and validate it.

Now you should be able to import the support pack for JAVA stack.

Hope you will not face the issue further.

If you feel this reply fruitful reward the points.

Cheers...and all the best.
