Problems during Installation

R3SETUP stops if it encounters an error. If you have looked at the corresponding logfiles and fixed the error, you have to start R3SETUP again, usually selecting REPEAT as option for the last step R3SETUP complained about.

To restart R3SETUP, just start it with the corresponding R3S file:

# ./R3SETUP -f CENTRDB.R3S

for 4.6B, or with

# ./R3SETUP -f CENTRAL.R3S

for 4.6C, no matter whether the error occurred with CENTRAL.R3S or DATABASE.R3S.

Note: At some stages, R3SETUP assumes that both database and SAP processes are up and running (as those were steps it already completed). Should errors occur and for example the database could not be started, you have to start both database and SAP by hand after you fixed the errors and before starting R3SETUP again.

Do not forget to also start the Oracle listener again (as orasid with umask 0; lsnrctl start) if it was also stopped (for example due to a necessary reboot of the system).
