The objective of this document is to look at some common HANA Studio issues and the steps to troubleshoot / resolve.

ISSUES

    Symptom: SAP HANA Studio launcher window appears for some time but studio fails to load.

     Resolution:

• Go to  C: -> Users -> <USERNAME> -> hdbstudio ->.metadata

• Clear the contents inside the .metadata folder.
• Restart HANA Studio.

• SAP HANA Studio fails to start due to JAVA JRE issue

    Symptom: A JRE or JDK missing error occurs when HANA Studio is started.
