sapinst.exe crashes on Windows 7 (ver. 6.1)

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to install Netweaver CE 7.11 on Windows 7 64-bit. Yes, I know it is not supported. But still, I would like to ask right about the reason sapinst.exe crashes.

So, sapinst.exe can be launched in Win 7 native mode, but it is not compliant with OS compatibility. So I am trying to launch it in Vista mode. But sapinst.exe crashes with error log like this (sorry for flood, but see below).

At the same time sapinst.exe launches in Win 7 native mode + 32-bit sapinst.exe launches in Vista mode. Only 64-bit sapinst crashes in Vista mode. I suspect this is related just to JVM and near that, and may be solved. Please, advise, if someone has more expertise than me or experience with such or similar situations.

Thank you.

Regards,

Anton

Yes, I know it is not supported

Well, I know that's not what you want to hear, but this is the truth, after 1 day, nobody tried to help you becasue you are on an unsupported OS for that product.

I do not know why you want to keep on trying an unsupported combination.

Hi Eric,

thank you for your attention. As you see, I am not asking why NW does not work on unsupported platform I am wondering simply why exe file crashes in Vista mode.

Anyway, you may be right, no one will try deal with this besides me.

Thank you.

Also, I noticed that possibly JVM crashes in ntdll.dll. Here are some libs, from the errorlog:

0x0000000000400000 - 0x0000000000415000 C:\Users\i057882\AppData\Local\Temp\sapinst_exe.5528.1284043695\jre\bin\java.exe

0x0000000076da0000 - 0x0000000076f4b000 C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll

0x0000000076c80000 - 0x0000000076d9f000 C:\Windows\system32\kernel32.dll

0x000007fefcdb0000 - 0x000007fefce1b000 C:\Windows\system32\KERNELBASE.dll

0x000007fefecb0000 - 0x000007fefed8b000 C:\Windows\system32\ADVAPI32.dll

0x000007fefe980000 - 0x000007fefea1f000 C:\Windows\system32\msvcrt.dll

Exception always occurs here: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc= 0x0000000076def2d5

So I assume ntdll.dll is the place where crash happens. Am I right? And what could it mean?

Thanks.

Anton
