Installing SAP Enterprise Portal 6 on Win2K / Oracle 9.2

Prerequisite -

Install Win2K. I installed win2K server (32bit). I have this as a standalone server, so did install as workgroup. Created a user poradm and added to administrator group.
Gave administrator group the following rights, by default these are not given to the administrator group, though it is given to administrator user id.

1)Act as part of the Operating System
2)Replace a process level token
3)Increase quotas

Downloaded the following CD's
Portal - 51030419
Oracle - 51030122_1/2/3 and 4 (patch 9.2.0.4.1)

Downloaded the following

• JDK 1.3.1.10 - from here . I installed this on c:\java
  Set JAVA_HOME to c:\java and add c:\java\bin to path
• SAP JAVA Cryptographic Toolkit - http://service.sap.com/swdc >>SAP Cryptographic Software. I selected SAP JAVA CryptoToolkit (earlier releases <=6.20) and SAP Cryptographic Library Microsoft Win32 for x86/IA32. This need SAPCAR which can be again downloaded from http://service.sap.com/. extract the file and put in a directory. It will be required during install.
• Oracle Drivers
  An Oracle JDBC driver (needed if you install DB on a different server)
  A language support driver. These can be downloaded from here.

Run Analyzer from the portal CD \ANALYZER\prerequisite.bat and you should see all check. None should fail.

Now we are starting the installation :

First we install Oracle 9.2 for SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0

• Created directory for Oracle c:\oracle
• Start the Oracle Universal Installer as follows:
  If you have copied the CDs to disk, start from:
  \disk1 or place the Oracle RDBMS CD1 in the CD drive and start from:
  <CD_DRIVE>:\NT\I386
  On the database server, double-click the file sapserver.cmd.
• File location I leave it as it is
• Create database - No
• Install
• Network Configuration Assistant: Welcome Screen - Select Perform typical configuration and continue with Next.
• End the installation with Exit.
• Insert the 4th CD and install the patch. First install the patch for OUI then for Oracle.

Install using SAPINST

• Run SAPinst in from the portal CD \SAPINST\NT\sapinst”
• When the SAPINST Gui comes up, choose “I agree”
• Choose “New Installation” in the “Install or Upgrade”
• Select “Database Server” for “Choose an installation option”
• In the next screen, “New” Oracle Instance with “<YOURSID>” as SID
• for SAP DBA tools, “c:\usr\sap\dbatools”
• For Portal Platform Schema ID, choose “PCD” (taking default value for Development), for Content Management Schema ID, choose “WCM” (taking default value for Development)
  • Password : PCD / password
  • Password : WCM / password
• Database Administrator : ora<sid> / password
• Database User SYS : SYS/ password
• Database User SYSTEM : SYSTEM / password
• Database Instance RAM : 1024 (My system has 2GB RAM)
• Listener Port : 1527 (Default Value)
• Continue with the Database Installation in the SAPINST GUI (post-processing and etc)

Start SANINST again to install portal

• This time select portal install
• specfify the directory for crypotograhic libraries.
• Specify the oracle schema which is PCD ( I left it default)
• Fully qulified name I gave it my hostname, as this is a test server.
• Start Install.

Message : when you complete the post installation procedure, access the portal using the following URL : http://yourhostname:50000/irj/.

Trick :
Use “root” to start the SAP J2EE engine.
In order to start, execute “/usr/sap/<YOURSID>_Portal/j2ee/j2ee_00/cluster/dispatcher/go”
There are some permission problems with the “j2eeadm” user

To access the SAP J2EE Administrator, use port 50004 for “No layer” Type.
Use the “Administrator” with blank password for this!
