Error "FAIL: process disp+work Dispatcher not running" when running docker image

0 Kudos

Hello dear colleagues,

I am installing the ABAP Platform 1909, Developer edition docker image.

After run the docker command, I am struggling with the error shown below:

The OS system is Debian 10 and My laptop is having 16Gigs and It is hitting almost 15G, hope insufficient memory not causing this.

StartWait
FAIL: process disp+work Dispatcher not running
Worker Processes: the start command failed, exit code=2
The service Worker Processes has failed to start and initialization is blocked until the problem is resolved
You can try your luck 10 times until initialization is terminated
Hint: docker containers can be joined by: docker exec -it <name> bash
Hint: HDB license must not be expired Hint:
HDB must be running
Hint: AS ABAP license must be valid
Hit Return to

BR,

Marcos

Hi Marcos,

I don't think you will be able to run a HANA DB system in a computer with 16GB of RAM. HANA itself should take, at very least, 16GB. Then you would have all processes from the ABAP system (even if you reduce to the bare minimum number of work processes)...

Check whether your HDB is actually running and not throwing errors.

Regards,

Cris

Hi Cris

I first tried installing the docker on Windows 10 and the 16GB is really not enough.

Running on Debian a friend managed to get it to run. How do I see if the HDB is OK? I will attach the information since I started ABAP4HANA.docker-run-abaptrial-log.txt

I configure 3 new parameters, but the error persists.

  • sudo sysctl vm.max_map_count=2147483647
  • sudo sysctl fs.aio-max-nr=18446744073709551615
docker run --stop-timeout 3600 -it --name a4h -h vhcala4hci --sysctl kernel.shmmni=32768 store/saplabs/abaptrial:1909 -skip-limits-check -agree-to-sap-license
