The maxDB database is not starting,

When I type

dbmcli -n mgiusdgrc1 -d CME -u superdba,<passwd> db_online, I get the following error.

Error! Connection failed to node <hostname> for database CME:

-24700, ERR_DBMSRV_NOSTART: Could not start DBM Server.

-24832, ERR_SHMNOTAVAILABLE: Shared memory not available.

-24827, ERR_SHMALLOCFAILED: ID E:\sapdb\data\wrk\CME.dbm.shi, requested size 260010,

Opening shared memory file E:\sapdb\data\wrk\CME.dbm.shi failed, rc = 5.

I tried to rename the file CME.dbm.shi, but it did not work.

Currently we have 8 GB of physical memory RAM allocated on Wndows 2008 Server and paging size specified is 16 GB.

1- Can anyone help in resolving the above shared memory error?

2- Are there any logfiles and specific error messages that I need to check, to resolve the MaxDB startup issue error.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all,

While i am checking the last month's db status in DB13, it is showing red colour. But at that time we had the backup successfully completed. After 1 month, while checking only i came to see the status is in red colour.

Can any one help me why it is showing in red colour?

Urgently required ur valubable answers...

Awaiting your earliest reply

Hello Colleagues,

I tried to install the SAP Max Database Studio 7.9.08 in a 64 bit version on a Windows 7 64bit (Intel) PC.

The newest version as SAP package "MAXDBSTDDSK7908_4-20006288.SAR" downloaded at Service Market Place.

After unzip with SAPCAR I executed the Setup "SDBSETUP.exe" with the default values.

Standard path "C:\sapdb\...

I tried es with different path like "C:\Program Files\sapdb\ ... with the same error situation

At SAPMax - XML Log Viewer I found serveral error's

ERR: Invalid value for type "path"

...

ERR: install registry not found

ERR: Cannot open install registry

...

ERR: Service check failed

ERR: Cannot open "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\drivers\etc\services" to write: No such file or directory

...

After check with "SAP Note 1097311 - SAP MaxDB Database Studio installation" I asume the issue is related to the Registry-Key path.

This ist the SAP requirement:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SYSTEM \ CurrentControlSet \ Control \ Windows \

SystemDirectory

Wert: "%SystemRoot%\system32" (type REG_EXPAND_SZ)

I have following values on the client PC:

SystemDirectory     REG_SZ     C:\Windows\SysWOW64

I don't think I can change the Windows 7 standard value/path here to the SAP value?!

Does anyone know the problem and how I am able to solve it?

Many thanks advance!

Jochen

Hi Max DB gurus,

We have two Productive Instances of Max DB database ,version 7.7.04.28

which are used are repository for content server . There is a

performance

bottleneck that when we add a new data volume of it using Database

Studio(Database Manager 7.6) it takes quite long time. Even adding a

data

volume of 20GB takes more than an hour and it often fails and then we

have to readd it . Does this behaviour depend upon any kernel paramter

. Please suggest through which parameter change

it can be reduced.

The operating system version is Windows Server 2008 R2

Hi,

I (succesfully, as far as I can tell) installed MaxDB on a Windows 7 Professional x64 Vmware virtual PC (maxdb-all-win-64bit-x86_64-7_8_02_28) and now want to also install MaxDB database studio (maxdb-studio-win-64bit-x86_64-7_9_08_01). While the installation seems to finish successfully, I'm running into errors after starting (as administrator). First error is

'Loading preference values failed; default values will be used

Reason:

Missing object type: :Loader'

then

'Could not read preferences

Reason:

Missing object type: :SQLSTUDIO'

The Event log viewer shows warnings about the utilities path not specified and again Errors about 'Missing object type:: preferences'

While Eclipse then starts up, it is not possible to work with the locally installed DB (which seems to be detectect, however). Again there are errors about

'Missing object type::preferences' as well as

'Could not load mounted Local Folders'

'Can not get registration preferences'

'Get login attributes failed'

'User management exception: Missing object tye::UM_CONNECTION_KEY_REPLACE_WITH_DATABASE_NAME'

Searching the web using these errors does result in too much help, , unfortunately, for UM_CONNECTION_KEY_REPLACE_WITH_DATABASE_NAME I do net get a single hit with google.

First I thought my Java SDK 1.7, is too recent, so I uninstalled DB studio and Java and tried again with Oracle jdk-6u37-windows-x64, but I'm getting the same errors. I also noted that, as it seems, the DB Studio remembered the password from the previous installation. It did not ask for a new one during the new installation but asked for the old one after I started it (I consider this a bug).

Any ideas anyone? Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe I should also note that at first I had a broken MaxDB installation (it failed to load the system tables), which I uninstalled, however and reinstalled (then succesfully).

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Thomas

Hi experts,

I tried to make a backup using dbmcli but I have the following error: -24991,ERR_NODBSESSION: no databse session available

Can you help me?

thanks in advance!

Hi Gurus,

I hope you can help with a user and permission problem in MaxDB. Let me explain....

We are trying to set up an LTRC replication to an ABAP system from an AS Java system running on MAXDB 7.8. I have created a new user for this purpose OPIREAD in the MaxDB system, and assigned the DBA attribute.

In the ABAP system DBCO the connection is configured correctly and the dbclient is functioning ok, we installed the correct executables and set the correct parameters.

When I test the connection using ADBC_TEST_CONNECTION everything is ok.

When we attempt to replicate tables we are facing errors.

"No Columns found for table <domain>.<table name>"

I suspect we have problems with the user OPIREAD to access the schema SAP<SID>DB

Please could someone offer advice?

Many Thanks.

HI Guys ,

I am trying to reset SAP* password in my MAXDB DB 7.6.  I know that is a very simple operation and I did it many times in other DBs , but here I  have stuck  during whole day .

I have connected to SQL Studio as SUPERDBA .

My SAP Schema  is "SAPIDS" .

To access usr02 table I run the following SQL :

select MANDT, BNAME, UFLAG from SAPIDS.USR02 where MANDT='000' and BNAME='SAP*'

, but I got the error thet the table does not exist .

I also tried:

select MANDT, BNAME, UFLAG from "SAPIDS"."USR02" where MANDT='000' and BNAME='SAP* ,

select * from SAPIDS.USR02 ; select * from "SAPIDS"."USR02" ;

I switch to Oracle mode also , but Nothing is working !

Also important to say that sql :

select * from tables where owner='SAPIDS'and tablename='USR02'

shows the USR02 table as well .

Any ideas ?

thanks in advance,

Evgeny

Hi,

We have our MaxDB (used for Content Server) updated recently from 7.6 to 7.9.

We have moved to Win2012 so had to update MaxDB as well. Everything was fine, but suddenly the MaxDB GUI or CLI wouldn't open. Content Server is still accessible fine though.

MaxDB Studio splash screen appears and that's it, wouldn't move further.

Below error when opening the DBMCLI:

Error - - - -

Can not open file 'G:\sapdb\SDB\data\wrk\dbmsrv_HOST.err'.

(System error 5; Access is denied.)

Error! Connection failed to node (local) for database SDB:

-24700,ERR_DBMSRV_NOSTART: Could not start DBM server.

-24832,ERR_SHMNOTAVAILABLE: Shared memory not available

-24827,ERR_SHMALLOCFAILED: ID G:\sapdb\SDB\data\wrk\SDB.dbm.shi, requested size

2608

2,Creating temporary shared memory file failed,  rc = 5.

Error - - - -

The error looks like permission issue, however, all permissions look fine. Using the same OS user that was used for the update.

Please advice.

Regards,

Naga

Hi Guys,

MaxDB provides the possibility to logically unite several database objects (e.g. Tables, Views, Indexes, ...) in so called "Schemas".

However, I couldn't find any documentation about how to connect to a certain schema via JDBC. How should the JDBC URL look like? Assuming I have this kind of URL jdbc:sapdb://localhost:7200/MAXDB. Is there a way to connect to the schema "DEMO"?

Thanks for the help.

Cheers,

Gerardo

Hi MAXDB experts,

I have installed MaxDB_7.9_RDBMS___SP8_Build_21 for Content Server.

Then I installed  maxdb-studio-desktop-win-64bit-x86_64-7_9_08_31

to connect the database but it is not connecting.

i tried connecting through dbmcli, database is connecting perfectly.

The OS used is windows 2012 -- Maxdb Studio supports win2012 server?.

Can anybody help me here?

Regards,

Suresh Daniel.
