Missing installation options in Software Provisioning Manager

[#1]

Hi community,

I'm about to install an SAP Diagnostic Agent. I had already downloaded the files and used them for a previous installation. Now the error has occurred that the start page of the Software Provisioning Manager opens, but this time no installation options are displayed. Unpacking the <SWPM>...<.SAR> file again was not successful at this point. Are there any other things I might have overlooked this time?

Thanks in advance!

When you start SWPM for the first time, it asks to provide root username and password. Such a blank screen happened to me a few times, where I either missed the credentials or provided an incorrect one. Try to open the browser in private mode and open SWPM there - it should ask you to provide the credentials again.

If that won't help, then we probably need to look at SAP Host Agent log files. Check the first point from following guide:

The window for the registration came reliably with each attempt. In the log I found several lines with the hint for missing permissions. Do I have to be a local admin to install it?
