[Former Member]

Hello,

I have restored PRD backup on DEV server but now not able to login due to license error. Its ECC 6.0 inst on AIX with Oracle Database.

Error is ---

isrdserver:devadm 51> saplicense -install ifile=/sapmnt/DEV/license

• ERROR: data in file /sapmnt/DEV/license incomplete(143/175)

Data: SID, CKEY, INSTNO, EXPDATE, LKEY, SYSID

1 1 1 1 0 1

saplicense: Error reading license data from file /sapmnt/DEV/license

Pls help me .....as i am not able to login in SAP due to license error after backup is restored.

Regards,

Ankita.

ERP 6.0 (and products based on NW 7.0) use a "new" license (digitally signed) which can´t be imported any more using saplicense.

You have to logon to the system and execute transaction SLICENSE, press on "New Licenses" and import your license file.

Hello,

I cannot logon into system as backup of PRD is refreshed in DEV server so license is also over written so i have to rectify it from OS level only.

I also tried to apply note 672258 changes but still no sucess.

isrdserver:devadm 69> more license.txt

Login in client 000 using DDIC or SAP*.

It´s simply not possible to apply the license on OS level.

add the given parameter to the instance profile (using e. g. notepad or vi) and restart your instance. Then logon using SAP*

Markus

Hi

I have added the given parameter in instance profile but still problem persists.

You have to login in client 000 with user "SAP*" - the password is the "master password" you gave during installation.

Markus

[former_member189019]

Dear all,

problem is resolved with the following sql cmd.

delete from <schemaid>.usr02 where bname='SAP*' and mandt='000';

after that was able to login into the system.

thanks a lot for all of them.

Hi,

check Note 672258 - Error when you use the ifile option to import the license
