Hi
I'm trying to do a SAP HANA (SPS10) install on Linux and I'm having a few difficulties. The installer (hdblcm) fails with:
Creating System...
Starting SAP HANA Database system...
Starting 7 processes on host 'myhostname.com':
Starting on 'myhostname.com': hdbcompileserver, hdbdaemon, hdbindexserver, hdbnameserver, hdbpreprocessor, hdbwebdispatcher, hdbxsengine
Installation of SAP HANA system failed.
Installation of SAP HANA Database failed
Installation failed
error installing
Cannot create Instance
Cannot start system
Start instance 00 on local host failed.
FAIL: process hdbpreprocessor HDB Preprocessor not running
Check the log file for SAP HANA Database error messages
I can indeed see that the Preprocessor isn't running:
./sapcontrol -nr 00 -function GetProcessList
26.01.2014 00:55:46
GetProcessList
OK

Question is, why?
Very little in the logs (/var/tmp/hdb_BOB_hdblcm_install_2014-01-26_01.58.03/hdblcm.log); can't see any errors as such - it just says the same about the preprocessor not running:

01:58:36.968 - INFO: Output line 48: error installing

01:58:36.968 - INFO: Output line 53: Check the log file for SAP HANA Database error messages
Further down there is one error:
Deployment of SAP Host Agent configurations failed on host 'myhostname.com': Invalid Credentials, SOAP-ENV:Server
??
It also mentions to check another log file: /var/tmp/hdb_BOB_hdblcm_install_2014-01-26_01.58.03/hdbinst.log
I checked through this and the only 'error' I can see is:
01:58:36.963 - INFO: daemon_myhostname.com.30000.000.trc: [8569]{-1}[-1/-1] 2014-01-26 01:58:33

.551874 e Configuration ConfigStoreManager.cpp(00693) : Configuration directory does not exist.
Not sure if that's relevant to this issue.
Any ideas? I previously had very specific error messages regarding missing libraries, have fixed all that and can't see any messsages about those any more... this seems very vague. Anywhere else I can look? I did check the trace files in /usr/sap/BOB/HDB00/myhostname.com/trace but couldn't see anything useful there, the only messages were in stderr2 which were:
Environment variable IQDIR16 must be set before using HDB configured with Extended Storage Server
Environment variable STREAMING_HOME must be set before using HDB configured with Streaming Server
Environment variable SQLANY17 must be set before using HDB configured with Remote Data Sync server
Again, not sure that's at all related to the problem? But I can't really see any other issues...
