      Hi Anitha,

      Good effort to bring the data in one page, but it would be really helpful to folks and value add for this doc if post solman installation steps are included here such as SOLMAN_SETUP with errors and fix.

      Hi Anitha,

      Nice blog.

      It would have been better, if you would have mentioned about the database installation.

      With Regards

      Thanks, so nice doc...

      As commented by other colleagues, this would be helpful if such step by step procedure is generated officially by SAP and put into PDF called "Installation Guide".

      The problem, is that the official guides are not so useful for quick setup...many notes are there, but no useful details, especially for debugging...

      I am searching a similar doc for SOLMAN 7.1 SR1 setup in Windows 2012/2008.

      If anyone, know a nice doc like yours, please share it.

      I am spending months now in searching, without success, but did not give up till success, and at that stage, will generate my doc and share it also.

      Thanks.

      Ahmed.
