SAP Netweaver 7.51 abap developer edition install failed

[Former Member]

I am trying to install sap_netweaver_as_abap_751_sp02_ase_dev_edition on Linux, but failing continuously... I am using following blog post for this: Installing ABAP AS 751 SP02 on Linux

I run the installation, by entering the command ./install.sh and getting following error:

Execute step checkSybaseUser of component |offlineadjustment_dialogs|ind|ind|ind|ind|0|0|offlineadjustment_os_users|ind|ind|ind|ind|osUsers|0|NW_GetDBUserParameter|ind|ind|ind|ind|getDBUserParameter|0|NW_GetUserParameterUnix_syb|ind|ind|ind|ind|syb_unix|0

To solve that problem start the installation without using SAPINST_START_GUI option..

how to fix this error message?

I am using Win10 and installing ABAP on Oracle Virtualbox(OpenSUSE 64-bit)

You can try this guide: https://dalanzg.github.io/tips-tutorials/sap/2017/11/09/how-to-install-sap-netweaver-751-sp02-as-aba.... At first glance, they are similar, but, perhaps, there will be some differences.

Hello Maxim,

The problem still occurs. If I run with -g option, getting following error:

In my case, I didn't install any GUI at all.
And one more difference from the manual. I setup VM network to network bridge to my home router (in this case you should bypass port forwarding setup). At the router I assign static IP (in a DHCP section) to vhcalnplci host.

You should try this. It worked for me. And make sure you specified the correct ip for vhcalnplci in /etc/hosts of a guest system.

Hi Maxim,

I set a hostname for a specific static IP but occurs again the same error.
