Hi all,
I am doing some tests on installing baan LN FP3 on linux. Currently my setup include a Debian etch machine as database server with oracle 10gR2, and a Suse 9.3 as application server. The Suse machine is a 32bit OS, while Debian is 64bit, so oracle is 64 bit. The Suse machine is a XEN guest on the Debian machine.

I have installed an oracle client 32bit into the Suse machine and I also prepared a staging area with all installable units available for FP3, including application server 8.4.

What is happening is that the installation stop displaying this message "An error occurred during import. See the logfiles for details." I checked the logfiles on the Suse machine and found in $BSE/log/log.log.ottiexbsi:

2007-08-14[18:50:45(UTC-02:00)]:bsp: Function CreateToolsSlmSecuFilePmc not supp
orted by BSI Remote Installer

If I press the "retry" button I get the same error (of course).
If I press "ok" the installation stop, but if I restart the process I see that a few units were installed. What is missing are unit starting from "SSA(R) ERP LN PMC Solution". I think this solution is FP4.

Anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks,
Giuseppe

Are you sure you are using the InstallationWizard coming from the Enterprise Server 8.4 CD?
If so, a workaround is to copy the 3 objects from the vm subdirectory of the InstallationWizard to $BSE/tools/tt7.6_a/ottiex (and ottdll and ottpmc). Be sure to make a backup of those objects before.

I think I am using the lastest installation wizard. Its version is 13.4.3.0.

Hi JaapJD,
I am trying your solution. When the installation stops I may see that objects are named duplicated (and copies have a ".1" file extension):

Hi all,
I found the problem: the suse 9 has an ftp server called pure-ftp (this is yast default preference). This server has a parameter called "AutoRename" that defaults to "yes" and that will rename all ftp upload when they would overwrite an existing file name.

I will now change that parameter and start the installation from scratch :-)

Thanks to all,
Giuseppe Sacco
