abap_trial NPL Not access after restart the system

[sven_mader2]

I have installed the SAP NW at linux in vmare. The server is running and I have access with sap gui – with on other virtual machine.

But if I restart the server, I dont have access via SAP GUI.

What is the problem?

uuidd service is running. And I started the database and the SAP server with “startsap all” two times.

What I have to do?

Is there a service is missing?

I can reach the ip and the hostname with “ping”.

What is different after the restart?

How can I check the database and the sap server is running? Where can I see problems?

Could you check if the port is open ?

telnet host port (depend of the linux version & the software used)

or

netstat -apn (check the line with the port number) or netstat -apn ¦ grep port_number

[sdingermann]

To check if the Database is running use the following command:

R3trans -d

I ve had the same issue. startsap all didnt start the database, so I start the db manually.

Check if the license is valid:

What ports we needed?

For example port 3200 is not there.

smr@vhcalnplci:/> sudo netstat -apn | grep 3200
unix 3 [ ] STREAM CONNECTED 23200 1492/master

[sven_mader2]

vhcalnplci:npladm 50> R3trans -d
This is R3trans version 6.26 (release 749 - 14.02.17 - 20:17:01).
unicode enabled version

R3trans finished (0012).

>Check if the license is valid

that can I dont check, because I have no access to the SAPGUI. I cant start the transaction slicense.

[sdingermann]

You dont need a SAP GUI for that. You have to check this on the OS Level:

vim /sybase/NPL/SYSAM-2_0/licenses/SYBASE_ASE_TestDrive.lic

the trial license expire march 2018.

=> so I think I cant restart the sap server

I reinstalled the SAP system NPL.

=> the last time I had restarted the system before installed a new license with transaction SLICENSE

=> Now I have a license for three month. but in the file SYBASE_ASE_TestDrive.lic I have again the message "will expire March 31st 2018".

I hope NPL is now working. And I can use it for some years. I have to reinstall the license with

https://go.support.sap.com/minisap/#/minisap every three months. Thats not comfortable, but ok.

Now its working. Thanks to all.

Hi Sven Mader,

I see a lot of answers from you, but you mentioned "its working", so is your problem solved? If yes, then you can go for closing the thread by selecting the Close option under Actions button of your initial post.

If the problem still exists, we would like to know about your SAPgui entry details? Did you try with using the IP address in the Application Server in the SAPgui entry. Please check the installation hostname IP address that you used during installation, probably after restart that is changing in case your IP is dynamic. In that case the new IP you have for your application server, that you might require to use in your SAPgui for login as you mentioned the SAP Application is running after restart but only you are not able to login via SAPgui

Thanks,

Kaushik

Hi Sven,

seems you've installed an older trial version (7.50?) where the ASE license already expired. You can download a new license in the Developer Trials and Download space (search for "ASE License")

The newer Trials (7.51 and above) shouls already contain a valid ASE license.
