sapcpe.exe not started

[nelson_chamba2]

Dear all,

I have a big problem here, i installed the ECC 6.0 SR3 and was working. Then I upgraded the kernel to 7.20 and restarted the machine and the services and now it´s not working anymore.

The service SAPQAS_00 is not starting and is giving me this error, how do i solve it?

Activation context generation failed for "E:\usr\sap\QAS\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64\sapcpe.EXE". Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC80.CRT,processorArchitecture="amd64",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.4053" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

On sap management console the complain comes from:

sapcpe.exe -- executable copy -- could not be started

I tried to bring back the previous kernel (the backup) and nothing, maybe I replaced it i don´t know, what is the walk around.

best regards,

1. Stop sap
2. Stop DB
3. Stop lsnrctl service
4. Stop Ora*Clr Agent  service
5. Stop SAPSID_## service for ABAP+Java stop both ABAP & JAVA
6. Take backup old kernel. Copy. :\usr\sap\SNB\SYS\exe\uc
7. Extract .SAR file to New300 dir.
8. Remove * from :\usr\sap\SNB\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64
9. Rename dir Kernel300 to NTAMD64
10. Please execute the vcredist_x64 in kernel Go to :\usr\sap\SNB\SYS\exe\uc…

Start services and SAP. sure the SAP will start with out any problems.

Which Windows version you are into ?

already copied to the kernel to both location and nothing, downloaded and installed the new vcredist_x64 from Microsoft page but still.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=90548130-4468-4bbc-9673-d6acabd5d13b

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64)

[nelson_chamba2]

Yes Kori,

I did the same process on another machine (development) and everything worked perfect, copy and past restart and done, now here not. but there was 2008 R2 and here it´s just 2008 with Service Pack 2

Could this be the problem?

You can find required vcredist package in sapexe archive of kernel you installed. If it doesn't help, try to start instance again and attach error here.

Hi Nelson,

As you have successfully deployed Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64) on development machine, you may do the following.

Copy msvcm80.dll, msvcp80.dll, msvcr80.dll and Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest from C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\redist\x86\Microsoft.VC80.CRT of the development machine to your system and check the results

Just verify the location as per your system before you make a copy.

Hope this helps.

Hi Nelson,

  Something this issue might come... You need to manually copy the files to the following locations.

1.E:\usr\sap\QAS\DV*\exe

2.E:\usr\sap\QAS\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64\exe

Uncare the new kernels and overwrite the extracted kernels in the above locations and try to start the system.. Hopefully it should come up.

Thanks and Regards,
