Acceptable Errors for Installation of the Siebel Database

This task is part of Troubleshooting Installation for the Siebel Database.

The log files might include errors that are expected and benign. Compare any error messages found in the log files to the sample error messages in the errors.rtf file, which is located in the installation subdirectory for your database, for example, ORACLE or (Windows) MSSQL. If a log file is not listed in the errors.rtf file, then there are no acceptable error messages for that log file. No further action is required if the log files contain errors listed in the errors.rtf file.

Note: Only one of each type of error occurring in a particular log file appears in the errors.rtf file.

If you find errors that are not listed in the errors.rtf file, then correct the condition that caused the errors, and rerun the Upgrade Wizard. The wizard restarts from the point where it left off.

Do not review only the error numbers because these might have changed following installation of a new driver version. Instead, compare the error descriptions to find out which are acceptable errors for this database.

Caution: Although other errors are rarely encountered, this review is critical. Certain errors, such as a failure to create indexes, might result in performance problems or anomalous behavior in Siebel applications.

You can view a log summary generated using the logparse utility. For more information, see Siebel Database Upgrade Guide.
