Dear all,

We are replacing SP01 with SP04, so please do not try to download this version anymore.

I will update the relevant blogs accordingly.

          Oooh, interesting. This is not something I have tried. If you want to do a short blog on this, with screenshots, any pitfalls, etc, I WILL publish.

          Enjoy!

          Julie.

            You are in luck, it’s the same procedure as in 7.51, just without the ASE license swap. Link

            The hostname check skip is also not needed anymore.

            I’ll adjust it sometime soon to be more 7.52 focused.

            Hi Julie,

             

            I too successfully installed on OpenSUSE Leap 15.0 on Virtual Box. I had few issues, I tried multiple times. Below are the issues I faced during the installation.

            1. Leap 15.0 by default tries to partition the hard disk (like 2 to 3 partitions with max size around 50GB) . Thanks to Fabian Lupa, his link made my life easy for the second try. We should click on guided setup for partitioning – explained well by Fabian.
            2. I had trouble in accepting the developer license agreement. I could not navigate back to terminal after the license display. I killed the terminal and did restart installation couple of times. Then I figured out after reading the license, we need to press ‘Q’ which will take us back to terminal where we can type ‘yes’.

            Unfortunately, because of multiple trial and error trials, I don’t have any screen shots.

             

            Thanks,

            Ravi

          Aaaargh. Thanks for letting me know, Uwe. I’ll edit the blogs and check the Newbie Guides as soon as possible. I’ll also inform the team obviously.

          Julie.

        Hi all,

        Some users have experienced an error downloading: “You are not authorized to download this file” or similar. One user solved this by downloading in Firefox, not Chrome.

        Can you please try this, if you get this issue?

        If that fails, try contacting support team from link below

        https://go.support.sap.com/contactus/#/email

        Do NOT add a comment here, for 3 reasons:

        • Very few people follow these blogs, so you will not get help from the vast majority of the community
        • It makes it difficult for other users to find similar issues in future, which leads to many duplicated errors.
        • There is no capacity to monitor all blogs for all released versions.

        Thanks and best wishes,

        Julie.

        Hi Julie,

        I have 2 questions. I currently have a Linux Workstation that has quad core processor with plenty of power and 32 Gig of memory running OpenSuse Leap 15. Is there any advantage to installing this in a VM versus directly on the machine? Also will a version of the ABAP 7.52 developer edition be released on SAP HANA in the future like what is currently available for the ABAP 7.51 developer edition.

        Thanks,

        Gregg

        • Julie Plummer Post author

          Hi Gregg,

          No, there is no real advantage to using the VM. The guide is only for members who are used to Windows, taking their first steps in a Linux VM.

          It is unlikely that we will release a download dev edition for the full HANA install, since HANA is not small ;-). (This is not available as download for 7.51 either.)  What is available for 7.51, and we are working on for 7.52, is a CAL version. This will be available here asap:

          https://developers.sap.com/trials-downloads.html

          Best wishes Julie.

          • Gregg Hinkle

            Thanks for the clarification. I saw the SAP Netweaver AS ABAP 7.51 SP02 on SAP HANA listed in the Trials and Download list. I guess that I didn’t read it closely enough to see that it was a CAL instance instead of a trial download.

      • Cao Thang

        Hi Julie,

        I have downloaded the ABAP 752 SP01 and after run command to install, I do not know how to agree the SAP COMMUNITY DEVELOPER  License to pass this step. I can not find any button to be clicked or choose.

        Please help!! Furthermore, there are 02 libraries not found:

        Do you want to continue?
        Proceeding with the installation
        Error: libaio: shared library not found
        Error: libstdc++: shared library not found
        Error: libnsl: shared library not found
        Do you want to continue regardless of the missing dependencies? yes/no: YES
        To install this TestDrive you have to accept the SAP COMMUNITY DEVELOPER License (DEV)

        Thanks & Best Regards

        • Julie Plummer Post author

          Hi Cao,

          First, check if each of the missing dependencies are there, using zypper:

          sudo zypper search libaio

          If not, then install each one:

          sudo zypper install libaio.

          Repeat this for each missing dependency.

          When they are installed, then run command to install again.

          Accept the license (y), then escape from the license text file using :q [that is, colon+q]

          It may be helpful to know more about zypper before you continue. Try here:

          https://www.tecmint.com/zypper-commands-to-manage-suse-linux-package-management/

          Best wishes Julie.

          • Daniel Kunovsky

            Hi Julie,

            I have the same problem and I was successful to solve for libaio. But not for libstdc neither libnsl.

            My way:

            sudo zypper search libstdc
            one by one: sudo zypper install libstdc2, then for libstdc-devel…

            But still:

            Error: libstdc++: shared library not found
            Error: libnsl: shared library not found

            Thank you very much for your help.

            Daniel

            • Jakub Filak

              It is my fault. You can ignore the error messages. Sorry about that.

              I added “set -o pipefail” to the install.sh and I run “ldconfig -p | grep stdc++”. The result is 137 even though grep finds a match, because grep closes the pipe ASAP, hence ldconfig has no valid file descriptor for writing and dies with SIGPIPE.

              The proper fix for this awkward issues is to write ldconfig output to a temporary file. It will come with the next download.

        • Linkin Pereira

          I was stuck at that too till I desperately hit all buttons on my keyboard. Finally the Q key worked.

          After you are done reading the Agreement hit the Q Key on your keyboard and it will close the document and present you with the option to accept the agreement. Just hit the Y key afterwards and you should be fine with that.

      • Glenn Mickelson

        Hi Julie:

         

        I was able to get this loaded and it looks great.   When trying to create a program, it is asking for a Developer Key.     How do we get that key?

         

        Cheers

         

        Glenn

        • Julie Plummer Post author

          Hi Glenn,

          First : Did you delete all your licenses, before you installed the new one?
          If so, the developer key is in the table DEVACCESS.

          You can check this in transaction SE16 -> Table = DEVACCESS .

          If that fails, open a normal SAP GUI Transaction in SAP GUI – eg SE80. Create a new object (eg data element). Paste the key in there.

          If you log out and log back in, the key should now work in Eclipse / ADT (!).

          HTH Julie.

          • Glenn Mickelson

            Thank you.  It was strange though, I deleted my Slicense entry even though it was still valid and installed a new one (with same expiry date).  Once that was done, I was able to create new objects without any further action..  The Developer key was in the system and worked fine with a new slicense entry.

             

            Cheers

             

            Glenn

            • Julie Plummer Post author

              Hi Glenn,

              Yes, that’s a peculiarity of the free dev edition. It allows us to save resources, but makes the process less flexible.

              Good to know thanks

              Julie.

        • Julie Plummer Post author

          Hi Ramesh,

          This is a general ABAP dev question. Please post on the ABAP Development forum : https://www.sap.com/community/topic/abap.html

           

          There are MANY more people who can help you there.

          Best wishes Julie.

           

          UPDATE, 2018 Dec 18 : Either that, or the example files have been removed. Sometimes this happens. I am sorry, but that is a limitation of the fact that it is free. I apologize for the inconvenience.

          Julie.

      • Brian Lee

        Hi Julie

        Could we please get a link to the ASE license? There are so many links to a sharepoint which does not exist or has expired guest access.

        Thanks

        • Julie Plummer Post author

          Hi Brian,

          Yes, I am aware of this. I have written a new blog, so please, everyone, bookmark this:

          ASE License blog

          So, every time the license location changes, I will simply update the link in this blog.

          However, PLEASE NOTE: We are currently experiencing Sharepoint issues. Therefore, some users have reported an issue with the Sharepoint link. We are working on this and I will update you all accordingly asap.

          Best wishes Julie.

      • Klaus Huebner

        Hi Julie,

        i have a problem with the new license under https://go.support.sap.com/minisap/#/minisap

        If i dowload the license for “NPL – SAP NetWeaver 7.x (Sybase ASE)” and will install on my
        NW751-SP02 i get the following error Message.

        This system’s system number is “000000000800291697”, but there is a license key for system number “000000000850319755” in the license key file.

        Please can you tell me where i can get a corret license for the Hardware-Key 800291697?

        Thanks and regards

        Klaus H.

      • Julie Plummer Post author

        Hi everyone, I just checked the page WITHOUT the debug parameter. It’s working for me, so I’ll consider the issue closed – If you are still having problems, please tell me.

        Best wishes Julie.

      • Sandra Rossi

        For people having problems with installation, a “checksum error” may indicate a download error. Here are the checksums of the installation I did on November 9th (using 7-Zip via Windows File Explorer context menu on the files CRC-SHA -> CRC-32) :

        • part01: CRC32: 38C7C0D9
        • part02: CRC32: B36E1D07
        • part03: CRC32: 84C50194
        • part04: CRC32: 1F5B9576
        • part05: CRC32: D277D3EF
        • part06: CRC32: B4677D50
        • part07: CRC32: 9006ADAE
        • part08: CRC32: E972C7CB
        • part09: CRC32: 392355B1

        All 10 files altogether: CRC32: 8899807D

      • Dave Beardall

        Hi Julie,

        I keep getting “Sorry. Your request for information is being reviewed. Once approved, you’ll receive an e-mail with additional instructions.” No e-mail arrives.

        I’m correctly logged in and have tried on 2 machines and 2 browsers.

        Any ideas?

        Dave

         

        • Dave Beardall

          To add. I finally got an email that allowed me to download file 01. However for all the rest I was not authorised. So it would seem that I now need to wait for an email for each individual file. Seems like a really dumb way to do it.

      • Dave Beardall

        Hi Sandra.

        I’ve correctly logged in with my S user. I had to select each file individually and get the popup saying my request was being reviewed. This morning I received 10 individual emails for each individual rar file. When I click the link in the email I can download the related file. However I must click the link in each of the 10 emails for the 10 different files. i.e. if I try to simply return to the main download page to download the files I get the popup again.

        I’ve never had this happen before. I recently installed the HANA dev edition with no such issue. I have been installing MiniSAP from back in the R/3 4.6 days when it was only available on Linux and never had an issue.

        • Sandra Rossi

          Dave Beardall There must be different policies based on region or I don’t know what. From France, I can download the 10 files individually without an email being sent. Let’s wait for Julie Plummer or Community answer. Or maybe you can ask SAP support (there’s a Contact Us button in the support home page).

          • David Metser

            Hi Julie, Dave,

            I am not sure where the problem here so I’ll loop in the relevant people and promise to come back with an answer when I have one

            Regards,

            Dedi

      • Dave Beardall

        Hi Julie, David

        Thanks for coming back to me. I’m fairly certain I’ve worked out the reason but have not been able to verify yet.

        In exasperation I registered a new user and was able with that user to immediately download all files without issue. I use a Mac at home with Mojave (latest OS). I had a look in the Keychain app and saw a warning that my SAP S user certificate was invalid.

        I can only assume that this was the issue but it seems strange that any other SAP activity (such as reading OSS notes) did not have a problem with that certificate.

        Thanks

        Dave

         

        • David Metser

          Hi Dave,

          I checked and your comment below is supporting my feeling that there was a glitch in the system with your user.

          I am not sure who can help but recommend contact the SAP contact person assigning your S user to see if he knows such an issue and knows who to contact.

          Regards,

          Dedi

      • Renald Wittwer

        Hi Julie,

        thanks for sharing this valuable information, thanks SAP for sharing this developer edition.

        Just finished the installation successful on

        • Mac (Mojave 16 GB)
        • VM Ware Fusion ( 8.5.10)
        • opensuse Leap 15.0

        At some points the installation was a little different than in the documentation. Shall I send you my summary direct or shall I write an own blog about it? What do you prefer?

        Best regards

        Renald

      • Jan Ostermeier

        Hi Julie,

         

        for me the tutorial is not working 🙁   I tried different approaches, without success. It stops always with the same error: after ./install.sh it runs for a while and terminates with:

        a /tmp/sapinst_instdir/NW73/SBC/STANDARD/syslib_priv.log
################################################
Abort execution because of 
Step returns modlib.jslib.caughtException
################################################

        In the last approach i followed the steps of Newbies’ Guide: Installing SAP AS ABAP 7.52 SP01 on Linux – VMWare in detail. I’m running on a Windows 10 Pro Host with 64 bit.

        Is there a fix available or is something wrong with the latest Linux updates?

         

        Thanks for any hit

        Jan

        • Julie Plummer Post author

          Hi Jan,

          This error could be caused by several things.

          Please post on the ABAP Development forum : https://www.sap.com/community/topic/abap.html ; remembering to add the hashtag #ABAP_Trial , and including the error messages from the directory :

          tmp/sapinst_instdir (The files are all *.log.) Please do NOT send the whole files, just the errors.

          Please do not use comments in the blogs to ask tech support questions :

          • It makes it difficult for other users to find similar issues in future, which leads to many duplicated errors.
          • Very few people follow these blogs, so you will not get help from the vast majority of the community
          • There is no capacity to monitor all blogs for all released versions.

          Thanks a lot Julie.

          I guess it happens during ./install.sh – Did you try repeating ./install.sh right after the failure ? – BTW how can we help you if you don’t explain what kind of installation you did (virtual box, vmware, …), or if you opted for any special option during the installation (check the relevant “newbie” guide). More information you give, more help you get.

          Srry, You are right

          I’m trying to install as follows:

          • AS ABAP 752 SP01
          • Virtual Box,
          • Open Suse Leap 42.3
          • RAM: 16Gb
          • HDD: 150 Gb

          On first attemp I followed the Newbies guide to the letter, on second one I used more RAM and HDD, I repeated the entire process several times allways ending with “Error: Could not write into temporary file” during ./install.sh 

          Now I will download installation files again, maybe there is some corrupted file or something :S

          Tnks

        Dear Julie Plummer,

        Need your help, I had updated ASE licence to ASE_License_2020.

        After updating I am not able to crate any objects in ABAP using both of the key

        12222845243181034647 or 35408798513176413512

         

        Please help me.

         

        Regards,

        Farooq.

        Dear all,

        Now that we have several blogs, for several product versions, I simply cannot answer any more blog comments.

        Please do not use comments in the blogs to ask tech support questions:

        • It makes it difficult for other users to find similar issues in future, which leads to many duplicated errors.
        • Very few people follow these blogs, so you will not get help from the vast majority of the community
        • There is no capacity to monitor all blogs for all released versions.

        Please post on the ABAP Development forum : ABAP Development: Ask a Question , using the hashtag #ABAP_Trial. I will try to work through the backlog here, but cannot answer any further blog comments.

        Thank you for your understanding.

        Hi Julie,

        thanks a lot. You did really a great job. I am using the trial version since 7.02 (windows version).

        This Version was really easy to install. No change of Database license keys. No hostname problems etc. I installed it on SUSE LEAP 15.

        Best regards,

        Nils
