#ABAP_Trial Install.sh error

#ABAP_Trial

Hello expert,

I'm trying to set up AS ABAP 7.52 SP04 on my Ubuntu(Linux Mint).

I'm following the readme file and extracted all the rar files(11 files) by using unrar command.

After I executed "sudo ./install.sh" I returns error(Attached txt file).

"* ls -ld / /sybase /usr/sap /sapmnt ls: cannot access '/sybase': No such file or directory ls: cannot access '/usr/sap': No such file or directory ls: cannot access '/sapmnt': No such file or directory".

I'm assuming there should be those 3 directories in the extracted rar files but I dont see them(Attached PNG file).

Anybody know how to fix this issue?

The directories are created by running the install.sh script, not simply by unpacking the distribution files. In your case the install script had an error so nothing is created. Answer ends here.

Additional personal opinions: I followed the official blogpost and created a VM with VirtualBox using OpenSUSE as base, works nicely. Alternatively, you might try the new HANA 1909 Docker image which has a big advantage: it is already setup, you simply have to create a container and you're off to the races.

Hi Andrea,

I tried with Docker image like you told me and I think it's going to work. downloading and unpacking went smoothly but when I tried to start HDB, it returns error where it says "not enough RAM". Then I realized I only had 8GB for RAM.... I will come back with a stronger hardware..

Thank you though!

8GB is definitely not enough: with 16 in total I could run the VM with 6, but I waited until I had 32 to attempt to run the Docker image.
