Hi,
Please check with below SAP notes:
819501 - How to clean client after corrupt installation of
add-on(s)
Symptom
One of following symptom discriptions may fit to the situation:
- An installation of an add-on or of all add-ons failed. As a result, the
installation process of the add-ons will not start, even though they are
assigned to the company in the add-on administration. No error message
appears.
OR
- The following message appears when initializing an add-on: "Add-On XX Add-On
installation failed because another version is alreadyinstalled. Upgrade Common
DB".
OR
- A user has accidentially uninstalled one or several add-ons using Add/Remove
Programs on the Microsoft Windows Control Panel. As a result, the installation
process of the add-ons will not start, even though they are assigned to the
company in the add-on administration. No error message appears.
If one of
these symptom descriptions fit to your scenario, follow the steps described
below.
Cause
- SAP Business One does not recognize the removal of add-ons using the
Add/Remove function.
- If an older version of the add-on is already installed on the client and the
user tries to install a new version, SAP Business One cannot re-install the
add-on, even though the add-on does not appear in the Add-On Administration
window.
Solution
- Start SAP Business One. Log on to the appropriate company.
- Choose 'Administration' -> 'Add-ons' -> 'Add-on
Administration'.
- Remove the add-on(s) from the company by marking them and clicking the left
arrow button.
- Choose 'OK'.
- Close SAP Business One.
- In Microsoft Windows, choose 'Start' -> 'Control Panel' -> 'Add or
Remove Programs'.
- Check if any SAP Business One add-on(s) are displayed in the list.
- If an add-on is included, uninstall it by choosing 'Remove'.
- Using Windows Explorer, locate to the add-ons installation folder. Depending
on the different versions of SAP Business One, the default installation folder
is 'C:\Program Files\SAP Manage\SAP Business One\AddOns\sap' or 'C:\Program
Files\SAP\SAP Business One\AddOns\sap'.If you chose a different folder during
the installation process, locate that folder. Delete all subfolders (folders
named like the add-ons) and, if present, the "_common" folder (which contains
the framework for add-ons).
- Locate to the SAP Business One installation folder. The default installation
folder is 'C:\Program Files\SAP Manage\SAP Business One' or 'C:\Program
Files\SAP\SAP Business One'. If you chose a different folder during the
installation process, locate that folder.
- Delete these files: 'AddOnsInstall.sbo' and
'AddOnsLocalRegistration.sbo'
- Start SAP Business One.
- Log on to the appropriate company.
- Choose 'Administration' -> 'Add-ons' -> 'Add-on
Administration'.
- Reassign the add-on(s) to the company.
- Choose 'OK'.
- Restart SAP Business One.
The add-ons will now be installed automatically and should work
properly.
properly.
