Summary

SymptomSAProuter does not run

Additional key wordsOSS1

Cause and prerequisites

Solution

1. Create the subdirectory SAProuter in the directory /usr/sap/.

2. Download the latest version from sapserv3, directory/general/misc/saprouter. Also see the corresponding file 'README' inthis directory. Copy programs 'saprouter' and 'niping' into thedirectory /usr/sap/saprouter.If you cannot copy the programs from sapserv3, you can get a (possiblyout-of-date) version from the directory /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run.

3. Add the following lines to the file /users/<SID>adm/startsap_<hostname>_<instance number> before the lines '#Start OS-Collector daemon'.

## Start saprouter#SRDIR=/usr/sap/saprouterif [ -f $SRDIR/saprouter ];then echo "\nStarting saprouter Daemon " | tee -a $LOGFILE echo "--------------------------- " | tee -a $LOGFILE $SRDIR/saprouter -r -W 30000 -R $SRDIR/saprouttab \ | tee -a $LOGFILE &fi

This entry automatically starts the SAProuter during the system startand it ensures that the SAProuter is always started. Since theSAProuter should continue to run after R/3 is shut down no respectiveentry is included in the Stopsap Script. If you boot the R/3 severaltimes, the system displays error messages when the SAProuter isstarted. You can ignore these error messages. The entry of theSAProuter in the Startup Script is a recommendation. However, you canalso start the SAProuter manually.

4. The corresponding routing table must be maintained in/usr/sap/saprouter/saprouttab.

5. Remarks

o As of version 25 the SAProuter must have a routing table. Therouter terminates with an error message if it cannot read thetable. If you do not want an authorization check use the line 'P ** *'.
