Error during 'check DDIC password' phase while doing system copy

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I also have the same problem.

While doing the system copy I am getting the similar error like "Test logon to SAP system <sid> failed. Make sure that the user DDIC exists and that the password of the user DDIC is correct" during the "check DDIC password" phase. I tried to login to the system with the users DDIC and SAP* to both the clients 000 & 001 with both the master & defaults, but it is giving the error "DB-error - 0" in the bottom of the screen.

I have included the parameter login/no_login_sapstar=0 in the instance profile and restarted the instance. Now I am able to login to all the clients with SAP* user id with the password 'pass' and changed the password of the user DDIC to its default. I tried to login to the system, but still the same error. I tried to continue the installation but still it is showing the same error message "Test logon to SAP system <sid> failed. Make sure that the user DDIC exists and that the password of the user DDIC is correct".

Kindly look into the following sapinst.log

Good Afternoon,

Could you please share with us how did you solve this error message ? I have tried the same steps as you and I have checked the password but I am still facing the same problem.

Thanks.

Hi Alembert,

Please make sure that the kernel level in both source and destination systems is same. If not please upgrade it in the destination system to that of source system and re-start the sapinst. This will resolve your issue.

Thanks and regards,
