Dear Experts,

Please find attached screenshot below. we are facing discrepancies in accessesing the earlier raised thread hence we have created a new thread.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Pradeep,

Please check whether Windows firewall is disabled or not. I guess it is blocking the ports and hence your installer is stuck.

Hope this helps.

Hi Pradeep,

Always download the latest SWPM. And please read the below note: 1565076 - "Missing" installation service on SWPM and on Installation Master DVDs for 32-bit operating systems. Uncar with latest sapcar.exe.

lastly i tried with 70SWPM10SP04_8-20009707.sar and after uncar it double clicked on sapinst.exe.

Also need the latest JRE installed. also read the note 1680045.

Hi Pradeep,

First share result for command netstat -an | grep LISTEN.Also make sure firewall should be disabled at OS.

If still issue persists try to use SWPM SP04 and share the results after that.

Hope this will help you.

Regards,

Gaurav

Hi Pradeep

1. Restart the system and then try again.

2. Windows 2003 update the latest service pack & windows updates

Also, make sure you are not setting SAPINST_JRE_HOME manually before running SWPM.

SWPM works with its own java.
