Verifying the Installation

Check for errors in the installation log, and verify that key services are functioning, that you can log in to SAP Control Center, and that you can see the properties of the SAP Mobile Server and connect to the data tier.

In the location of the installation log file referenced below, SMP_HOME is the installation location you specified (default is C:\SAP\MobilePlatform)..

  1. Check the installation log at SMP_HOME\InstallLogs\SMPInstall.log.
    A search for "error" should not find anything.
  2. Verify that these services are started automatically, otherwise, you must start them manually. Open the Services panel from Windows Control Panel and check the start-up state for:
    • SAP Control Center X.X
    • SAP Mobile Platform SampleDB (not present in Enterprise Server Edition)
    • SAP Mobile Server
  3. Verify that you can log in to SAP Control Center.
    From Windows, select Start > (All) Programs > SAP > SAP Control Center.
  4. Verify that the node you just installed is accessible from SAP Control Center and that you can see the properties of that node.
  5. Verify that you can connect to the data tier.
