This chapter discusses:
If the PORTTEST program fails to run, use this checklist to diagnose the problem before calling Global Customer Support. Please have the answers to these questions as well as copies of error messages, your Enterprise Server , and any error logs, such as JDE.log or JDE_xx.log.
PORTTEST may fail if replication, security server, or transaction processing have been installed incorrectly. If problems occur after the installation of one or more of these services, check the setup of those services for incorrect parameters.
Additionally, if PORTTEST reports warnings that indicate data dictionary or company constants are invalid, it may be because the F0010 table is empty. As is true with the full JD Edwards EnterpriseOne installation, this is a normal condition in Pristine and Production environments.

Other Issues | Yes\No |
---|---|
Were your server map tables F98611 and F986101 edited properly? | |
Run the Verify OCM application and verify: | |
Do only host databases exist? | |
No entries for batch applications exist. | |
Are JD Edwards EnterpriseOne tables accessible to the host? | |
Can you query the F0902 table? | |
Does the PORTTEST program run without error for each valid path code? | |
Does the user name match that of a valid Release 9.1 account?

If you answered no to any of these questions, your batch application might not run. If you answered yes to all the questions, submit a batch application now.
If your batch application does not run correctly, turn on error logging and resubmit the batch. This log helps Global Customer Support diagnose the exact problem.
If you are receiving data warnings against the F0010 table in the Pristine or Production environments, the table might be empty. This is how it is delivered. You can ignore these warnings, load demo data, or load your own data.
The Electronic Software Update (ESU) for the Planner Update Special Instructions was created with special features that updates the Planner pathcode on the Deployment Server. It includes all fixes for Release 9.1 installation and upgrade process.
You must run the specialInstrs.bat
file to copy certain table records from the ESU database to the Planner databases on the Deployment server.
On the Deployment server, browse to this directory:
\JDEdwards\910\Planner\Package\JMxxxxxxx\Scripts
Run the batch file specialInstrs.bat
. Note any success or failure messages that appear in the command window.
Review the SpecialInstrs.log
file that is created in the same directory for details.
