NW 7.4 upgrade fails to start shadow instance

$

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to upgrade our EP (Java only) from NW 7.0 to NW 7.4. We did a test on a POC server last Summer and it went fine.

Now, it's time to do real upgrade on our servers; of course, the old SUM version doesn't work anymore. I used MOPZ to generate new stack files, download the latest components and all.

Somehow, the SUM kept failing at step 5.5 - Preprocessing when it tries to Start shadow instance SCS.

 

The log only indicates that SUM tried to start the instance a 20 times (with 15-second pauses in between) so it gave up. The last part of the log shows

------------------------

Error starting instance 2 on host mydev with timeout of 7200 seconds.

Errors while starting the instance.

javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: Invalid Credentials

--------------------------

 

The only SAP Note I found is 1937296 where it says you'd need the latest kernel. But I've already had the latest kernel.

What bothers me is "Invalid Credentials" --> which credentials?

 

I tried several different things. Reset the upgrade, cleaned up the SUM directory, re-start the upgrade from scratch several times. I've also tried to re-start the instance; even re-started the server a couple of times ... to no avail :-(

 

I also tried to run the sapstartsrv command line

## ../SUM/sdt/data/kernel/sapstartsrv pf=../../DPK_SCS02_mydev -D

and I'd get the error

--------------------

Could not open the ICU common library.

   The following files must be in the path described by

   the environment variable "LD_LIBRARY_PATH":

   libicuuc.so.50, libicudata.so.50, libicui18n.so.50 [/bas/741_REL/src/flat/nlsui0.c 1535] pid = 18978

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is currently set to /usr/sap/DPK/SYS/exe/run:/oracle/client/11x_64/instantclient  [/bas/741_REL/src/flat/nlsui0.c 1538] pid = 18978

--------------------

 

Any help and/or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Dao
