Re: Error - MAXDB SAX Parser during Backup Log

Hi Jorge,

The reason for two (//) in the path  /var/sapdb/DEV/data//BackupTemplates.xml is,

The parameter RUNDIRECTORYPATH has a (/) at the end

Here's what you need to do:

1) Switch the database to offline mode (db_offline)

2)

Connect to the database as DBM/Control user

Run the commands -

param_startsession

param_directput RUNDIRECTORYPATH  /var/sapdb/DEV/data

param_commitsession

param_checkall

OR you can change the parameter using the DBStudio or DBMGUI

3)

Check and make sure the parameter RUNDIRECTORYPATH is set correctly before starting the database to online mode.

Regarding the corrupted BackupTemplates.xml, here's what you can try:

1)

Install the MaxDB Database Studio

2)

Make a copy and rename the DEV_BackupTemplates.xml to BackupTemplates.xml

3)

Put the BackupTemplates.xml inside the rundirectory - which in your case is "/var/sapdb/DEV/data"

Try running the backup wizard and let me know if you are still getting any errors or warnings.
