Cannot connect to SUM on Linux

[jakob_steen-petersen]

Hi

I have started SUM with ./STARTUP confighostagent <SID>

When i call url http://server:1128/lmsl/sumabap/VM6/doc/sluigui i get the logon popup. Here i enter sidadm and password.

But i cannot get in, it keeps poping up with the user/pass request (and i am sure it is the correct one...).

Any ideas?

Hi Jakob,

You need to go to the directory

/usr/sap/hostctrl/exe

Change the permission of sapuxuserchk as below.

I think the sticky bit is missing for the file sapuxuserchk

chown root:sapsys sapuxuserchk

chmod u+s,o-rwx sapuxuserchk

Hi,

hope the correct permission has been assigned to SUM directory /usr/sap/SID/SUM.

chown -R sidadm:sapsys SUM

chmod -R 755 SUM

may this help.

Hi Jakob,

As per your message , the popup issue has got resolve now.

To run the SUM 16 patch 3 , you need to have SAPHostagent version 721 and patch level has to be 10 and higher.

Kindly paste the version of saphostagent

goto the directory /usr/sap/hostctrl/exe

./saphostexec -v

Hi Jakob.

1.  Are you starting the SUM in putty or VNC?

2. Refer the link SUM startup steps

SAP Basis Tutorials: How to launch Software Update Manager or SUM tool?

1. Directly on the server

2. The guide is for the old SUM.

Hallo,

have you restarted SUM/Host Agent after changing the permissions on sapux... files?

Anything in the Host Agent log file?
