I have an Intel 3.2Ghz Pentium, with 2GB of RAM and over 400GB of HDDs, on my home computer. I have installed Windows XP Professional, including all patches, updates, etc.
I wanted to learn ABAP and I bought the ABAP Objects book by H.Keller, S.Kruger, which comes with 2 CDs that include the miniSAP 4.6D system. I installed the miniSAP 4.6D software, kernel, database (SMSQL), and front-end on the computer successfully.
I execute the Start SAP MBS and then I log onto the system successfully, as BCUSER. After the login, the system automatically switches to Object Navigator, which is the default.
However when the Object Navigator is displayed, I get the message "The page cannot be displayed", on a small window below the top left corner of the screen.
Listed on that page is the usual message for possible solutions, such that, check the internet connection settings, Internet Options, etc.
I performed all those tasks, I shut down and restarted the computer and/or the software, but the message is still there.
I uninstalled the front end, and reinstalled it, but the message persisted.
I have Norton's Internet Security on my system, BUT I MAKE SURE THAT IT IS DEACTIVATED BEFORE I START ANY SAP SOFTWARE.
The book and the software were produced several years ago. I guess that in the past, people came across this problem.
Does anyone have any idea of how to resolve this issue?
I have searched the forum for a solution, but I have not found anything yet?!
Thanks

Welcome to SDN.
4.6D is pretty old. you can get the latest version from SDN/download section at
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/downloaditem?rid=/library/uuid/cfc19866-0401-0010-35b2-dc8158247fb6
coming to your question about page cannot be found the issue is because of a MS security patch for XP. to over come that install the latest SAPGUI - (you can download the same from the link i had given above)
