On Monday last week I received an email from

Brian Bischof

asking for help with the

SAP NetWeaver 7.0 – Java and ABAP Trial Version on Linux – VMware Edition

. I had already tried to install this software around New Year but struggled with the download of SLES10 SP1 SAP Version (Where to download SLES10 SP1 SAP Version?) and also a problem with the License Key (License Key for SAP NW 7.0 – Java Trial Version on Linux – VMware Edition). Brian’s mail triggered me to try it again.

Update: If you are looking for instructions for the “

SAP NetWeaver 7.0 – Java Trial Version on Linux – VMware Edition

” please read the “

Getting Started Guide

” which was just published.

1 Download & Extract

I’ve downloaded all the files from SDN,

SLES 10 SAP version from Novell

and VMWare Player (http://www.vmware.com/download/player/). Here is a screenshot of all the required Files:

I’ve created a sub-folder Readme where I’ve extracted the “VmWare%20ABAP%20and%20Java%20Readme%20-%20zipfile.rar” – File. The VMware-player-2.0.3-80004.exe has to be installed as an Administrator. After the VMWare Player installation you have to reboot yur computer. After that I’ve double-clicked the “SAP NetWeaver 70 – Java and ABAP VMware Trial.part01.rar”-File and opened it with WinRAR (http://www.rarlab.com/). I’ve extracted all the content to the VMWare sub-folder I’ve created before. Please be patient, for me that took about 20 minutes. Then I’ve extracted “SLES10SP1VSAP.rar” also to “VMWare”. Again you have to wait some minutes.

The resulting structure in the folder VMWare looks like this:

2 Start-up & Login

Now you can double-click on the File “SLES10SP1_Test_Drive.vmx” to start the virtual machine. At this first start you have to answer this dialog with “I copied it”:

The boot process will start automatically. After some seconds you will see the boot screen:

If you want to see what the system is doing in the background you can click into the VMWare window and press ALT + F2. Then the startup console is displayed:

After the system has booted you can logon with Username “root” (lower-case) and the Password “sap123”:

3 Install license

3.1 Get hardware key

The SAP Application server is not started automatically. Fist you have to start the “Gnome Terminal” to get a command-line. Please be aware that the keyboard layout is set to “German”. I’ve described how to change that to “English” in Chapter “5.2 Keyboard layout”.

There you can switch your user-id to using the command “su – n4sadm”.

According to the Documentation in the Readme we have to determine the Hardware Key of our system by submitting the command “/usr/sap/N4S/SYS/exe/run/saplicense -get”

Now goto http://www.sap.com/minisap/ (http://www.sap.com/minisap/) where you can apply for a 90-day license. Fill all the required fields and the system info:

Some minutes later you will receive a mail with the attached license-key text file.

3.2 Start-up the Application Server

To install the license we have to start-up the Application server. Do that using the command “startsap n4shost” after a while you will get the message, that the Instance was started:

If you encounter an error saying “Database is not running” during this process try the command “db2start” before you use “startsap n4shost”.

3.3 Prepare license file for import

Now you can minimize the Terminal window to see the desktop. To import the license we have to create an empty file on the desktop by a right-click:

Name the file “N4S.txt” as the attachment of you license key mail:

Double-click on the “N4S.txt” file on the virtual machines desktop to open it. Open the “N4S.txt” attached to you license key mail and copy the content to the clipboard. Paste the content into the editor:

Don’t forget to save the “N4S.txt” file.

3.4 Install license

Now double-click on the SAPGUI icon on the desktop.

Choose the N4S system from the list and start the connection by clicking on “Connect”:

Logon as user “sap*” with password “sapn4sadm”:

Start the transaction “SLICENSE”:

Click on the Button “New Licenses”:

Then click the import button:

Open the “Desktop” folder in the “Open” dialog:

Choose the “N4S.txt” file:

When you’ve done that you should get a sucess message:

That was the final step. Now logoff and logon as user “developer” with password “developer”.

4 Access the system

4.1 Java Stack

To access the Java Stack of the server you have to use a Web-Browser and access

. When you’ve just installed the license you first have to restart the application server by issuing the command “stopsap n4shost” and “startsap n4shost” from the command-line as user “n4shost”.

4.2 ABAP Stack

If you want to connect to the ABAP Stack from an external system you can use this settings for SAP GUI:

!https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/images/2345/09-connection-from-windows-SAPNetWeaver7.0-Java-ABAPTrialVersionLinuxVMwareEdition.png|height=1|alt=|width=1|src=https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/images/2345/09-connection-from-windows-SAPNetWeaver7.0-Java-ABAPTrialVersionLinuxVMwareEdition.png|border=0!

To lookup the IP address of the Application Server (Anwendungsserver) you can use the terminal window as user root and issue the “ifconfig”-command:

The IP address is displayed behind “inet addr:”. You can download SAP GUI for Windows and Java from ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapgui/ (ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sapgui/).h3. 5 Troubeshooting

5.1 Proxy configuration

If you want to access the Internet from inside the virtual machine, you have to reconfigure the proxy settings. Unfortunately they are set for SAP internal use. So if you want to access your license key e-mail via the browser you have to change this settings. Start Firefox:

Click Edit > Preferences > Advanced Tab > Settings button. Choose ‘Direct connection to the internet’ if you’re using the virtual machine at home behind a NAT-router. In a corporate environment you have to ask your friendly network support guy’s to provide you the right configuration. Also you can look it up from your actual browser you use to read this blog.

5.2 Keyboard layout

Unfortunately they keyboard in the virtual machine is set to a german keyboard layout. To change this in the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server you have to use the YaST configuration tool:

Click on the Group “System”. There you will find the “Keyboard Layout”. You have to doubleclick to start the configuration.

From the “Layout”-list choose “U.S. English”. Click OK to apply this setting.

Then you have to confirm the setting by clicking “Save”

Please also notice the next message which indicates that you have to log-off / log-on to apply this settings

  Hi Francisco,
  
  If you didn’t find a solution to your TOAD problem, here is a link that explains how you can find the port http://www.gulfsoft.com/blog_new/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=380.

I installed the NetWeaver Java trial on a ESXi server using VMWare Converter.

Now I’m trying to get my hardware key by executing “/usr/sap/N4S/SYS/exe/run/saplicense -get” as n4sadm.
I get: “Command not found”
The reason is that the directory /usr/sap/N4S is missing. I find saplicense at:
/netweaver/sapmnt/CTB/exe

Is there only a link missing/broken?

  Hi John,
  
  you’re talking about the NetWeaver Java trial on a ESXi. My Blog is about the NetWeaver 7.0 – Java and ABAP Trial Version. I think the ABAP makes the difference and the system names are different. That reflects also in the different path to the saplicense executable.
  
  Best regards

  Hi John,
  
  Don’t know if you resolved this problem, however:
  
  For the trial to work there are two sets of VMs needed. The first is from the SAP and the other is from Novell.
  
  I ran into the same problem earlier this week. The “Command not found” error was resolved once I downloaded the VM from Novell.
  
  You will need:
  
  SAP NetWeaver 70 – Java and ABAP VMware Trial*.rar
  and
  SLES10SP1VSAP.rar. The trial software is from SAP download and the SLES10SP1VSAP is from Novell.
  
  I hope this helps you get your SAP-VM working.
  
  Regards,

Hi Everyone,
When i try to start the SAP instance use startsap command, i got message: ‘SAPSYSTEMNAME not set’. And i view the file startsap, it seems that i need to set a enviroment variable SAPSYSTEMNAME. Can any tell me how to do that? I have rare knowledge about Linux. Thanks so much!

  Just in case you have not already solved this problem: it works fine for me when i added the hostname after sapstart. Therefore, when i start the SAP system with: sapstart n4shost, it works fine for me.
  
  Additionally, it is important that the dummy network device is up and running. That could simply be achieved by starting the scrript /etc/init.d/rc3.d/S99n4shost with the parameter start.
  
  Hope this helps….
  
  Greetings

  Hi Satish,
  
  I have not found where I’ve described to use the setenv DISPLAY command. When you’re try to start JSPM on the system locally you should not need it.

after some search I found where you can find it

https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/minisap/minisap.htm

and choose N4S and within a few minutes you will get a license . this can be renewed at least 7 days before expiration, following the same procedure

Hi Gregor,

thanks first for this excellent guide – I was able to setup a running and working system very quickly.

Being a complete SAP newbie, I have two questions:

1) What does it need to make the system accessible via RFC? I found out a ‘saprouter’ should be setup but anyway I don’t get any connection via a JCO Java client, though the ports are open and telnet works.

2) When accessing https://ivml2005:54200, a page is shown where you can follow different links, e.g. for system information etc. Login as SAP* (as with SAP GUI) doesn’t work, so I guess there must be some other credentials? Any ideas?

Thanks very much!

Regards,

Karsten

  Hi Karsten,
  
  I think before you try to connect via RFC to the system you should try if SAP GUI does work. I’ve described how to discover the IP address of the system. That you have to maintain in SAP Logon. When this works try the same data in JCo.
  
  Best regards

Hello guys,

do you know if it’s possible to run Integrated Planning in this Java/ABAP trial? (Transaction “RSPLAN”, then “Start Modeler”).

I’ve successfully installed this trial but when I run tx RSPLAN and then click Start Modeler, nothing happens. (web browser is supposed to start and Modeler should appear in a web page, but it doesn’t)

Many thanks for your tips!

  Hi Matus,
  
  I think it should be possible. But the Java Stack has to be started and also that the connection to the Java Stack needs to be customized. But I’ve never did that. So I can’t help you here.

Hello,

I’m trying to run the trial but I still have a issue to log on, message : “error in license check”

I try everything I found in forums, I have tested the license, see the trace below.

I checked too files dev_w*
It seems there is a problem with server message

I checked in “dev_ms” file, but nothing has been wrote inside.
Please could you help ? maybe someone met the same issue and solved it.

  Dear Arpan,
  
  as this Blog is already a bit dated, I would encourage you to check out the current SAP ABAP offerings:
  
  SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.03 SP04 64-bit Trial
  
  for Windows 7 Professional or Windows Server 2008R2 (english)
  
  or if you want to use Linux then check out the
  
  SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 SP4 Offered as Pre-Packaged Trial Versions
  
  you will find comprehensive installation instructions directly at that pages.
  
  Best regars

  Dear Arpan,
  
  I hope you’ve not followed my instructions. There are a bit outdated as the Blog is form 2008. Please check out the page http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/nw-downloads for the most current version of the Trial/Developer edition.
  
  Best regards

Hi Gregor,

But last time you have suggested to go for

SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.03 SP04 64-bit Trial

for Windows 7 Professional or Windows Server 2008R2 (english)

or if you want to use Linux then check out the

SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 SP4 Offered as Pre-Packaged Trial Versions

The 1st one is working fine but I think, there is some problem in SAP NetWeaver Gateway trial.

That’s why I asked you if you have any knowledge about this installation.

Thanks & Regards,

Arpan

  Dear Arpan,
  
  as this trial versions are completely not related to the topic of this blog I would encourage you to post any further questions as a discussion at http://scn.sap.com/community/netweaver-as which is the space for the NetWeaver Application Server. You can mention my name by typing @ and then Gregor_Wolf so I will get a notification. Please include as much information about your environment as possible.
  
  Best regards

Can anyone confirm they’ve been able to do this successfully since these files have been moved from scn to store.sap.com.

The multiple option download page is still live, but I can’t download any of the files and get directed to a wwwa website address.

The software finder here doesn’t have it listed. Which would lead me to believe it wasn’t moved over.

Anyone sitll watching this thread?

  Hi Gabriel,
  
  yes, I’m watching this thread. Unfortunately SAP moves more and more in the Cloud area. Please check out Trial and Developer Offerings with SAP Cloud Appliance Library . The only download was SAP NetWeaver Gateway Developer Center . But Unfortunately the Links do not work. Perhaps Andre Fischer can help.
  
  Best regards

    Just to see if I’m understanding, are you saying the links in the pages your Feb 20, 2014 post is referring to are broken?
    
    I’d love confirmation on if those products are still being offered that way, and the most recent response on the linked post is from November 2013.

      Yes, I’m talking about the links at SAP NetWeaver Gateway Developer Center. The Cloud Appliance Library works just fine.

  Hi Gabriel,
  
  no, 7.00 is completely outdated and not available anymore. But you can spinup a system from the SAP Cloud Appliance Library (https://cal.sap.com/). There you can even get NetWeaver ABAP 7.50 SP01 on HANA.
  
  Best regards
