Update, 9th June, 2025: ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2023

Again, just a heads-up: New version - 2023 Available Now:

ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2023 Available Now - SAP Community

Also available directly from Dockerhub, with a new tag:

https://hub.docker.com/r/sapse/abap-cloud-developer-trial/tags 

 

Update: ASE license for AS ABAP 7.5x

Just a heads-up, since so many people subscribe to this blog post. I am sorry about the delay. However, the ASE license for SAP AS ABAP 7.5x, Developer Editions is now updated and available in the usual place. SCROLL DOWN to ABAP 7.50:

https://developers.sap.com/trials-downloads.html?search=ABAP

In future, all updates about the ASE license will be posted here, so please subscribe here if you are still using any 7.5x version:

AS ABAP 752 SP04, developer edition: NOW AVAILABLE - SAP Community

(The version under 7.52 SP04 is obsolete.)

ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2022 SP01 now available on Docker!

Hi All, Please find the latest version of ABAP Cloud Developer Trial - 2022, SP01 - on Docker here:

https://hub.docker.com/r/sapse/abap-cloud-developer-trial/tags 

Again, please go straight to the Tags tab, since the Overview Pull command does not work (this is a Docker feature outside our control).

If you want to get stuck in immediately, the Pull command is as follows:

docker pull sapse/abap-cloud-developer-trial:ABAPTRIAL_2022_SP01

Enjoy!

ABAP Cloud Developer Trial is a free, downloadable ABAP Platform on SAP HANA 2.0 for trying out the ABAP language and toolset. It is extensively pre-configured with SAP Fiori launchpad, SAP Cloud Connector, pre-configured backend /frontend connections, roles, and sample applications.

This solution is intended for two groups of developers:

  • Non-ABAP developers, who are interested in learning more about the ABAP language and development tools
  • ABAP developers, who are interested in learning about new features (see below for some examples)

Note: This is the new name for ABAP Platform Trial. The name change is to highlight that you can now develop in the new ABAP Language Version, ABAP for Cloud Development. For more information, see the Highlights below. By the way, if you are interested in our overall release strategy for the Trial, see Karl Kessler’s announcement blog post from 2023: Now available: ABAP Platform Trial

julieplummer20_0-1707312743960.png

IMPORTANT:

All: Before you pull the image

Make sure that you:

  • understand the principles of docker container technology
  • know the entities docker image / docker container and their relationship
  • know the basic commands to work with images and containers

All: Troubleshooting/ Support

Since ABAP Cloud Developer Trial is a free offering for education and demo purposes only, we offer it with SAP Community support. That means that no primary support is available for this product. 

To get Community Support, please create a new question in the SAP Community - ABAP Development forum and add the user tag "#abap_trial". I will try to monitor these questions, but other experienced ABAP users / mentors also see them and often provide support.

(NOTE: Now that comments are no longer threaded, it is almost impossible to keep track of / answer your troubleshooting / error questions, so posting a question is more efficient than posting a comment.)

Mac Users: 

Previously, ABAP Platform Trial ran on both Intel and M-series processors. Since then, Apple has upgraded its iOS. Thus, on the newest MacOS version, you can no longer run ABAP Cloud Developer Trial on Docker Desktop for MacBooks with an M-seríes processor. This is not a SAP-specific issue. So for now, you have two options:

  • Run Docker Desktop with a MacBook that has an Intel processor.
  • Use the UTM app to emulate an AMD64 Linux distro via Apple QEMU.

Many many thanks to Community member @dylan-drummond for researching this. Dylan has written an exhaustive guide to this: 

M-series Apple Chip MacBooks and Abap Platform Trial containers using Docker and Podman 

This is Community content, so consume at your own risk; however, this could be very helpful to many Mac users.

ABAP License

The ABAP license supplied with the Docker image lasts only three months. Therefore, you should download and import the demo license as follows:

  1. Logon to your ABAP system with the user SAP*, client 000, same password as for DEVELOPER (DEVELOPER , client 001, is locked).
  2. Start transaction SLICENSE; copy the hardware key.
  3. Get the license from minisap , choosing the system A4H.
  4. Back in your ABAP System, start SLICENSE again, then choose Install.
  5. Log off, then log on with the user DEVELOPER, client 001.
  6. The old ("INITIAL") license(s) should be deleted automatically. If not, start SLICENSE again; remove the old invalid licenses. (sap* is not allowed to delete licenses).

16th May, 2024: File upload vulnerability - Workaround

Symptom

An unauthenticated attacker can upload a malicious file to the server which when accessed by a victim can allow the attacker to access, modify or make unavailable user's information and system.

Reason

The Content Repository "FILESYSTEM" and "SOMU_DB" are configured with "No Signature" checked.

Workaround

To ensure that a secure default configuration is implemented, correct your system as follows

If you have the relevant access, you can refer to SAP Note 3448171 for more details.

Note that this workaround is a temporary fix and is not a permanent solution. SAP strongly recommends you apply the corrections outlined in the security note, which can be done in lieu of the workaround or after the workaround is implemented:

  1. Execute Transaction 'OAC0'
  2. Open the content repository 'FILESYSTEM' for all releases. 
  3. Change the Version Number to '0047' (Content Server Version 4.7)
  4. Uncheck the checkbox "No Signature" 
  5. Save the settings.
  6. Execute Transaction 'OAC0'
  7. Open the content repository 'SOMU_DB' in case of release 7.50 or higher.
  8. Change the Version Number to '0047' (Content Server Version 4.7)
  9. Uncheck the checkbox "No Signature"
  10. Save the settings.

ABAP Cloud Development: Developer Extensibility Scenario

julieplummer20_0-1713188198928.png  

ABAP Cloud map

ABAP Cloud is the ABAP development model you need to build cloud-ready business apps, services, and extensions. Including it in the ABAP Cloud Developer Trial means that you can get a feel for the concepts pertaining to ABAP Cloud Development and to a clean core when extending SAP S/4HANA. This scenario lets you build extensions directly on the SAP S/4HANA stack - tightly coupled, cloud-ready, and upgrade-stable. Of course, we don't offer the strictly business content from SAP S/4HANA. However, we do offer all the language elements - RAP cloud-optimized language, and released APIs and extension points. 

Important: You are thereby restricted to  cloud-optimized ABAP language. That is, if you are used to developing in Classic ABAP on-premise, and want to try out Cloud development, you must comply with ABAP Cloud Development rules, such as:

  • Use public SAP APIs (local or remote) released by SAP to access SAP functionality and SAP data
  • Use public SAP extension points released by SAP to extend SAP objects. Modifications to SAP objects are not supported. (This includes SFLIGHT, for example.)
  • Use ADT (ABAP Development Tools) as your ABAP IDE
  • Use RAP (ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model) to build Fiori apps and services. SAP technologies like Dynpro or Web Dynpro are not released for ABAP cloud development
  • The software components ZLOCAL and ZCUSTOM_DEVELOPMENT can only be used for ABAP Cloud development - that is, compliant with these rules

More information:

ABAP RESTful Application Programming Model (RAP) - 2022

julieplummer20_2-1707312818813.png

Offers you an efficient way to build enterprise-ready, SAP HANA-optimized, OData-based Fiori UI services and Web APIs in the cloud as well as on-premise.

New features in 2022 include:

  • Custom business objects
  • Event Consumption and Exposure
  • RAP Generator
  • RAP business object Test Double Framework (TDF)

To make it easier for you to get started, we have also added:

Git-Enabled Change and Transport System (gCTS)

Snag_c56468.png

gCTS = CTS + git

A new way of transporting objects, gCTS enables you to use Git to store your ABAP development objects. gCTS makes use of special Git features, such as working on local copies of a central remote Git repository. Software development takes place in the usual editors like ABAP Development Tools (ADT). Changes to objects are still recorded in transport requests. Current states of objects can be pushed to remote Git repositories, either by releasing a transport request or while you’re working.
For the official documentation overview, see: 

Git-Enabled Change and Transport System (BC-CTS-GIT) | SAP Help Portal

The official documentation for configuration is in two parts:

  1. Configuring Git-Enabled Change and Transport System
    Here, we have preconfigured the first two parts, so you only have to complete parts 3-5:  
     julieplummer20_0-1714132333934.png
  2. Configuring Git Repositories

Some certificates are already available. If you would like to connect to your own GitHub server or to a provider other than github.com, you have to add the appropriate certificates to the ABAP system in transaction STRUST. The configuration has been done for the default user ‘DEVELOPER’.

To get started with gCTS, simply open the gCTS app in the SAP Fiori Launchpad (FLP).

If you are a SAP customer, partner, or employee, the following SAP Note provides additional information: SAP Note: 2821718 . However, the essential configuration has already been done for everyone.

abapGit

julieplummer20_1-1711536855908.png

Yes, abapGit is available out of the box.
Documentation is here: abapGit Documentation

Custom Code Migration with the ABAP Test Cockpit (ATC)

We've pre-configured ABAP Platform Trial to run as a central check system for checking your custom code prior to migration - particularly useful for:

  • SAP S/4HANA Readiness Checks
  • SAP Cloud Readiness Check

You can test this out of the box locally in SAP ADT, then configure the rest of your landscape to work with it.
For more general information on ATC, see these two excellent blogs, by Olga Dolinskaja:

SAP Cloud Connector

julieplummer20_0-1707312915858.png

SAP Cloud Connector provides a link between SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) applications and on-premise systems. It runs as on-premise agent in a secured network; acts as a reverse invoke proxy between the on-premise network and SAP BTP; and lets you use existing on-premise assets without exposing the entire internal landscape.


If you are interested in connecting your ABAP Platform Trial with a licensed version of SAP BTP, ABAP Environment (i.e.“Steampunk”), I have written a tutorial mission on this: Connect Your On-Premise System with SAP BTP, ABAP Environment

I had to restart my server and now it's stuck at "HDB: starting". 
I don't think there is any issue of memory (32GB) or disk space (70%) since there was no issue before the restart.

Update: could it be that the current image is shipping a corrupt DEFAULT profile? I've seen multiple people posting issues after changing the profile through RZ10.

There is one parameter "abap/test_generation" that shows an error due to the value 'ON'. The error went away after changing it to lowercase 'on'...

Hi Julie, 

Does it have scriptserver (3rd vCPU) on HANA DB necessary for running Machine Learning?

I've written comprehensive instructions for setting up SAP ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2022 SP01 in a Debian VM under VMware Workstation Pro:

https://www.mars-sa.de/files/SAP%20ABAP%20Cloud%20Developer%20Trial%202022%20SP01%20-%20Installation...

This should also be usable within an ESXi setup (not tested).

Furthermore, you can also run the docker directly on an Unraid server if you follow these general instructions for docker templates:

https://selfhosters.net/docker/templating/templating/

The necessary disk space and RAM are automatically used by the docker but you have to ensure that your Unraid server has at least 24 GB RAM and 4 CPU cores and that your available docker storage space is expanded to at least 130 GB. In the template itself, you need to assign 4 CPU cores (you do not need to additionally enable HT/Hyperthreading) and activate privileged rights (otherwise the docker cannot be started).

After installing and running the docker, it will initially use about 19 GB of RAM and the CPU idles more or less (around 1-2 % here with an Intel® Xeon® CPU E3-1245 v3 @ 3.40GHz).

Hi @tarzibou ,

Thanks for getting in touch. I'm always interested in such projects. However, I don't quite understand: You have a SUSE distro inside a Docker container sitting on a Debian distro inside a VM Workstation - is that right? What is the advantage of that setup? It sounds relatively slow.

What am I missing?
Thanks and best wishes,

Julie.

Hi @julieplummer20 ,

I have a Debian distro inside a VM where your SAP Trial Docker runs. If your SAP Trial Docker itself is/runs a SUSE distro then you are correct.

The advantage is that you do not have to interfere with your workstation directly as the VM is completely separated from the workstation (within a separate network, separate drivers, update state, etc.). You can easily backup & restore it, run it on demand and copy it anywhere. That means, you could as well create a ready-to-go VM image and distribute it here (the only things left for us developers to adjust would be the network settings and update the trial license within the SAP system).

Thereby, you do not need any (additional) Docker software on your workstation - but you need VMware Workstation, of course (I guess, VirtualBox would work, as well).

I think the VM approach suits many ABAP developers which are working for several or regularly changing SAP customers as it makes sense to setup a corresponding VM for each of those customers in order to also separate the network settings (here: via separated VLANs) and the customer specific (on-boarding) software (mostly VPN specific) from the workstation itself. Thereby, VMware (or VirtualBox) should already be installed.

In terms of resource consumption, you should hardly notice any differences, if any, as Debian has very low additional resource requirements.

However, if you already have a Linux server, you should of course install the Docker directly on it. I also use Docker on my Unraid server, where it is available at all times. My workstation, however, is unaffected 🙂

First of all, thank you for the "ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2022"!

I was able to successfully install and login to S/4 system via SAP GUI as well as Eclipse with ADT and BWMT.

Is there any way to login to the backend database of this S/4 (DB Host: vhcala4hci) via Eclipse HANA modelling tools? I want to try out a hybrid scenario where one can consume a HANA view into BW modelling for reporting.

Hi @julieplummer20 ,

First obviously, thank for this detailled blog.

I have some question about differnces between this "ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2022 SP01" and other in "Trials and Downloads" like :

  • SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.51 SP02 on SAP HANA
  • SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP Developer Edition 7.52 SP04

I wondering about the licence experation after 3 months, what does it means ? that every 3 months we must install a new system ?

Or after 3 months we will not ableto use it ?

As a developer I expect longer lifetime ? Is there any much longer trial ?

Or like Microsoft did it on SQL server, is there a free edition available for ever ? In order for me to invest (or not) time to build fetures on SAP ABAP.

As it is difficult to invest time to start building feature for the SAP Community or customer without a clear vision of the long term access to this developement infrastrusture.

Thanks in advance for your clarification

julieplummer20
Product and Topic Expert
Product and Topic Expert

Hi @taryckbensaili ,

Wow, so many questions!

The license expires after 3 months, but you can easily request a new license via minisap (just like 7.5x).

You don't need to install a new system. You can continue to work on this specific system for as long as you have a working container. If it gests corrupted, you can spin up a new system for as long as you have an image. I suggest backing these up regularly, since at some point we will be obliged to remove them from Dockerhub. (I honestly can't predict when that will be; however, we will generally not be supporting more than one release at a time, apart from a brief transition period.)

Does this help?
Best wishes,

Julie Plummer.

Hi @leon3 , hi @Kushal_Banerjee , 

This information is in the FAQs:

SAP HANA database - via external tools, e.g. SAP HANA Studio, DBeaver, WebIDE

If you want to connect to HANA via external tools like HANA Studio oder DBeaver, you have to publish the ports 30213 and 30215 in the docker run command.

Same with WebIDE:

/usr/sap/HDB/HDB02/vhcala4hci/trace/ *nameserver*alert*
/usr/sap/HDB/HDB02/vhcala4hci/trace/ hdbdaemon

Request for SYBASE_ASE_TD.lic License Renewal

Hi @julieplummer20,

I’m reaching out to inquire about obtaining a new SYBASE_ASE_TD.lic file. The ASE Enterprise Edition Trial License for SAP Business Applications which I'm using will be expiring on March 31, 2025.

Could you let me know where I can get a new license or any next steps I should take?

Thanks so much for your help!

Best regards,

Francisco Milan.

P.S.
Hi everyone,
If you're also looking for the new license file, you can find it at the following link: SAP ASE License File Download.

Hi @leon3 , hi @Kushal_Banerjee , 

the password for hana is the same as for developer user

============================

Hello Dmitry Yudin,

Here I am NOT asking about the Abap Users which I know it was given in the Docker website itself,  you can see in the Docker --> overview section.

I am asking about : To connect HANA DB from Hana Studio there I need SYSTEM DB User_id password. I am asking about this password.

Rest I have managed everything of my own.

Thanks & Regards

Kushal

Hello @Kushal_Banerjee 

as I already mentioned, the password for system user and abap schema user in hana is the same as for user developer in netweaver (in case of ABAP Cloud Developer Trial 2022, SP01  it is ABAPtr2022#01 at the moment of writing )

Great Thanks if this is the password. Let check and will update you.

Here next problem is the IP address which inside the Docker instance is NOT accessible from my Laptop Windows 11 OS. So I am unable to connect HANA DB using S/4 Hana Studio. Any solution to this ?

Thanks

Hi @kushalsambhunath_banerjee ,

TO access HANA DB, please check the FAQs:

abap-platform-trial-image/faq-v7.md at main · SAP-docs/abap-platform-trial-image

Best wishes,

Julie Plummer.

Hi,

If the S/4 Hana DB SYSTEM SQL User has the same password like S/4 Abap Developer then my first topic is resolved which I will check as I reach home.

Secondly, My problem is how to connect the IP from outside of Docker where you also mentioned to expose the IP & Ports by using Docker run command .. I have checked last time. But it did not work at all. If you have any successful approach let me know.

Thanks & Regards

Hi I downloaded and installed the up version, but I locked the user SAP* mandt 000. Can I unlock this user? How? 

What is the password for this version that I downloaded? 

Regards,

Hi Márcio,

This can be done very easily. The solution is very standard and across all version of SAP App, method is same: -

===============================
Method 1: Using SQL Query in HANA Database
If you have access to the HANA database, execute the following SQL command using HANA Studio or HDBSQL:

SQL Commands: -

UPDATE SAPSR3.USR02
SET UFLAG = 0
WHERE BNAME = 'SAP*'
AND MANDT = '000';
COMMIT;

Note: This will unlock the SAP* user in client 000.

-----------------------------------------------

Method 2: Using Parameter Login/No_Automatic_User_SAPSTAR
Log in to the SAP system with a user who has administrative access.
Open Transaction RZ11.

Enter the parameter name login/no_automatic_user_sapstar and click Display.
If the value is 1, change it to 0:
Click Change Parameter.
Set Value to 0.

NOTE: Save and restart the SAP system.
Now, you can log in to client 000 with:
User: SAP*

Password: PASS (default, or use the previously set password)

-----------------------------------------------

Method 3: Using Transaction SU01
If the SAP system allows access:

Go to Transaction SU01.
Enter SAP* as the username.
Click Unlock (Ctrl+F5).

==============================

NOTE: I will prefer follow the Method : 2

Thanks & Regards

Enjoy

Hi @Kushal_Banerjee the probem is I don't have any user to log on  . It was my firts access, so I was tryind to import the License . Bellow step.

"

  1. Logon to your ABAP system with the user SAP*, client 000, same password as for DEVELOPER (DEVELOPER , client 001, is locked).

"

So I understand that I don't have any user to log on SAP.

 

Regards,

Márcio

Hi,

Firstly, Goto the Docker Website - sapse/abap-cloud-developer-trial:ABAPTRIAL_2022_SP01 and in the info tab and please be clear about the password.

Secondly, Follow the Method:2 which I have mentioned to unlock SAP* user_id of each client and unlock any of the SAPGui SAP User_id and continue from there.

NOTE: In Method:2 you have to change the parameter in SAP-Profile parameter:

How to login into the Docker SAP Instance sapse/abap-cloud-developer-trial:ABAPTRIAL_2022_SP01. Open the PowerShell Prompt as Administrator then in that prompt execute the following command to login inside the Docker SAP instance:

PowerShell User > docker run -it --user a4hadm sapse/abap-cloud-developer-trial:ABAPTRIAL_2022_SP01

you will land in Linux prompt.

a4hadm@vhcala4hci> cd /usr/sap/A4H/SYS/profile

a4hadm@vhcala4hci> cp DEFAULT.PFL DEFAULT.1.PFL

vi DEFAULT.1.PFL

"Add the following parameter OR if the following parameter is present then change it 0"

login/no_automatic_user_sapstar = 0

save the vi editor and restart entire docker / PC / Laptop.

Then after the restart:

Now, you can log in to client 000 with: User: SAP*

Password: PASS (default, or use the previously set password)

Thanks

Hi! First of all, thank you Julie and team behind this work to have available ABAP in local.

I'd like to question, is it planned to release a 2023 version? And the 2025 closely to the S/4HANA 2025 release date (in October)?

Thanks!

Hi @Kushal_Banerjee ,

I am sorry, this is beyond the scope of our testing. I would recommend that you open it up to everyone by posting a question in the SAP Community - ABAP Development forum and add the user tag "#abap_trial".

I am sorry I could not help.

Best wishes,

Julie.
