Sapinst create service error - problem with OracleServiceSID

[former_member617993]

Hi

I am doing a homogeneous system copy and currently stucked on creating the oracle client.

Error:

Instance created. DIM-00019: create service error O/S-Error: (OS 1069) The service did not start due to a logon failure.

I tried to go to the services and correct the password for OracleServiceSID and tried to start the service manually. This went well until I got another error:

DIM-00019: create service error

O/S-Error: (OS 1073) The specified service already exists.

I have tried to delete the service with this command:

oradim -delete -sid SID

I also did reboot the server and continue with sapinst but then I always end up with the first error "The service did not start due to a logon failure."

This is very similar to the post in: https://answers.sap.com/questions/12611280/installation-stuck-between-oserror-os-1069-the-ser.html

But unfortunately, the resolution didn't work for us.

Any trick for this issue?

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Florence

Hi Florence,

I encountered the same error as mentioned by you today.

I used same password (which is very simple!) all away in the collection as I'm installing new AS ABAP for "fun" only. I'm pretty sure the password provided to the account OracleService<SID> is correct but somehow sapinst still raise such error.

Thank you for your update which also helped me a lot!

Regards,

Kevin
