Issue: You are installing SAP HANA, express edition on a Linux server using hdblcm
. You receive this error:
Cannot start system.
Start instance 00 on host ‘hxehost.localdomain.com
’ failed.
FAIL: process hdbdaemon
HDB Daemon not running.
Solution: Use zypper
to check the util-linux
, util-linux-systemd
and uuidd
packages to make sure they are at these versions:
zypper info util-linux util-linux-systemd uuidd
The results need to show that you have at least the following versions installed:util-linux
: util-linux-2.25-22.1
uuidd
: uuidd-2.25-22
util-linux-systemd
: 2.25-22.1
If you are missing any of the packages, or if the versions are outdated, install them using the zypper
install command.
Check that socket activation is enabled and started. In a shell enter:
systemctl
status uuidd.socket
If the status is inactive, start socket activation:
systemctl
start uuidd.socket
