SAP IDES ERP 6.0 EHP4 / NetWeaver 7.01 Installation Guide on Windows 2003 64-bit – Part 2 Posted by zieglers on November 12, 2009 In this 2nd part of the article, I’ll mention installation environment details. Although S AP doesn’t recommend installation on laptops, I did my test installation on a virtual machine. As host machine I


used Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and VMware Workstation. Here are guest 64bit operation system details: =========================================================================

Installation Guest Machine details * Windows Server 2003 R2 – Standard x64 Edition

* MS SQL Server 2008 x64 with collation CP850_BIN2 (this is very important. you can only install SAP with this collation)

* Java JDK 1.4.2_17 windows-amd 64bit. If you have problems finding a 64bit version for Java 1.4.2_? SDK, here is the link: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/SAPsite/download.html

Java SDK versions provided in above link are specific builds for SAP customers. For my installation, I used following version.

Also, you should download Java Cryptography Extension 1.4.2 since SAP Installer will ask for it during installation. =========================================================================

Starting Installation Process If you have downloaded all necessary installation media as described in part 1 (http://zieglers.wordpress.com/2009/11/10/sap-ides-erp-6-0-ehp4-netweaver-7-01-installation-guide/) and prepared your installation guest machine as described above, now we can start installing SAP IDES ERP 6.0. There are also couple of important details to mention:


1. Your machine name CAN NOT be more than 13 characters . Otherwise you’ll get an error during installation during prerequisite check. As for this demo, i renamed my machine to ECC6. 2. Increase your virtual memory. Make it at least 20480 MB. Otherwise you’ll get a warning during installation prerequisite check. If you wish, you can continue installation like that, however it’s highly recommended that you increase your min virtual memory. This will increase both installation and SAP runtime performance. 3. Make sure you install correct version of JDK (link given above). If not, you may get some java runtime related errors during installation. 4. Although in this demo, i install using an external drive, if you have a chance, copy installation media to your hard drive and start installing SAP from your hard drive. (i’d suggest using min 7200rpm drive!!!) It’s better to keep installation media and installation path (where you install your SAP instance) on different partitions. Also, make sure that you hav e enough space on your drive for this installation. Just to give you an idea, once installation is complete, just the size of database files will be 160GB! 5. Important!!! If you’ll follow this demo, make sure you name your SAP instance (SID) as ECC. The reason is, once we start installation, as first step, installer will ask you to enter SAP Solution Manager Key for your installation. At this point, make sure you have your installation details as follows: • SID: ECC • Client: 00 • Host: ECC6 Before starting, it’s always a good practice to organize installation media in logical folders so that it’s easier to find once sap installer asks for them.

Since we are installing on a 64bit windows environment, we need to start the installer for that one specifically. Go to installer folder > 51037622 > IM_WINDOWS_X86_64 > sapinst.exe .


Now, installer starts loading…

Select EhP4 for ERP 6.0 > MS SQL Server > Central System installation option, as seen below.


Provide System ID. For this demo, it’ll be ECC.


Then, enter master password for your system. This password will be used for all SAP accounts created during installation. You’ll also use this password after installation to log in with DDIC and SAP* users.


Provide export package paths. Installer will ask you in the order of 1, 4, 2 , 3.

SAP IDES ERP 6.0 EHP4 / NetWeaver 7.01 Installation Guide on Windows 2003 64-b... Page 10 of 25



Once you are done with entering all necessary parameters, parameter summary will be displayed. Here if you want you can make some changes.


Here i strongly recommend increasing number of database abap import jobs . By default it’s 3. For this demo, i chose 10 import jobs to be executed in parallel.


Once you are done revising input parameters, you can click next.. At this point installer has got all required input from you.. Installer will start executing 23 phases .


Here 1st phase is ‘Check Solution Manager Key.’ You need to have a unique key for your installation that you need to obtain from SAP Solution Manager. If you’d like to follow this article and use same names i used here, drop me a personal note, i’ll try to pass it over… Longest phase will definitely be ‘Import ABAP‘ phase. Depending on your machine, this phase can take from hours to couple of days. Be patient!!! Make sure you turn off Windows Automatic Updates. Last thing you wanna see is to wake up in the morning, run to your machine and see it`s been restarted by Automatic Updates!


If everything goes ok, once installation is complete, you`ll see a screen as follows.


Finally, we completed SAP IDES ECC 6.0 installation. Now, you can go ahead, install SAP GUI and start using your system. Let me know if you have any questions.. Hope this post helps some folks out there.. Found this post helpful? Please donate, so that i can donate you back

Hi, Are you planning on finishing this post? Since I’ve been banging my head against an SAP brick wall all day I would be very interested to see this article to its conclusion. Thanks Log in to Reply 2.

zieglers said January 22, 2010 at 10:15 pm

Yes. I’m planning to finish this post. I’m waiting for a more powerful h ardware to get prepared for my installation. Once the hardware is ready, I’ll post all installation details with screenshots. zieglers Log in to Reply 3.

Hi Gurus i am facing the same Project, but Windows 2003 Server SP2 32-Bit, with IDES based on netweaver Kernel 7.0. I am banging my Head as well against the SAP Brick, cause


downloadable Docu – if it matches? – is showing entrances to follow, wich are not given by my SAPINST from IDES MASTER INSTALLATION DVD I am VERY interessted on your Install Doumentation, even if i would have to convert my Server to the Trial Version of Windows 2003 6 4 Bit server. My Hardware has a E8400 Intel Dual Processor wich – i think and hope would do the Job, with 4GB core, and 1.8 TB Diskspace Log in to Reply 4.

peteslater said February 28, 2010 at 2:01 pm

I had the same issue. The SAP installation is now only supported on 64-bit and when you run it on 32-bit SAPInst doesn’t tell you, it simply only shows you the valid 32-bit options. Thanks for nothing. All your other hardware specs look good. Once I switched to a 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003 everything installed without issue. Good luck and I hope this helps.

I am reading your article before I start the installation. You mentioned that a unique key is required from Solution Manager. Do I need a SOLMAN system in order to be able to complete this install? You also mention using the same names you use – can you send these on to me. I gather this is all related to licencing of the product – once IDES is installed, how long is it valid for? Log in to Reply ◦

zieglers said July 14, 2010 at 11:48 am

You don’t need SolMan if you prepare your installation env as i mentioned. Tha t is, * SID: ECC * Client: 00 * Host: ECC6


Once, you start installation and installer asks you for SolMan key, email me with a screenshot and i’ll send you the key. IDES installation is valid for a month. If you will use it for learning or POC purposes, it should be enough. zieglers Log in to Reply ■

Hi Zieglers, here on wordpress can not find your email address to be able write. You can write it here, so I can write? Thanks! ◦

princen said July 21, 2010 at 4:45 pm

Hi Zieglers Thanks for your response. How would you obtain a license key if I wasn’t able to email you with a screenshot? The main reason I ask is that I also want to setup a CRM IDES system and presumably I will require a key for this as well (which you may or may not have). Also, re the 30 day license – at what point does the 30 day license start (ie when you first login to SAP, date of installation, something else)? I may want to use IDES for a POC a couple of times a year and I don’t want to have to an entire new installation each time if I can avoind it. If I could take a snapshot in VMWare before the license is activated, it would save me some time the next time I want to use it beyond the 30 days. Thanks for your help Log in to Reply ■

Hello Princen, Did you ever get a response from Mr. Zieglers abo ut going beyond 30 days? My effort is to learn SAP and, possible, install BW and le arn how BW works. Thanks, ■

Hi Zieglers, The installation instructions are fantastic. They are very self explanatory and thorough. I was able to install the IDES without any problem. Thanks a bunch . Palusa00 6.

Hi all, As long as you follow same instructions in the blog and keep all host, client and instance names same, key will work. For this i need u to send me a screenshot showing that you came to that point in the installation process – the screen requesting sol man key. Otherwise, i’m afraid i can not provide you a ny keys. My aim is to help people who wants to create a temp ECC system for education or training purposes. Please don’t email me requesting SolMan keys for other installations.

Hello Mr. Zieglers, I sent the screenshot where it asks for the Sol Man key in my 2nd email. I am following the same instructions in the blog with hostname, client, instance name, and etc. Your assistance is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, Sean Log in to Reply ■

Thanks for this great tutorial , I lost much time at the beginning as I installed it on Vista Business 32 bit as host and Windows Server 2003 64 bit as guest in a Vmware Workstation program . There were a lot message errors gennerated during and at the end .. I reconfigured my desktop computer with dual boo t Vista Business 32 bit with this time Windows Server 2003 x64 bit + ( 4GB RAM )and it installed very smoothly .It took +- 6 hours to install completely .

Congratulations.. nice Tutorial. Too bad I have found it after I wasted one week trying to install it by my self. Anyway, I have installed it on a 64 Bit Operational System, and an I5 Processor.. also 6Gb RAM. It is working fine. My doubt is, do you know if it works fine on a 4GB System / Core 2 Duo ? Thank you very much. Firenarrow Log in to Reply 10.

zieglers said September 8, 2010 at 2:00 pm

Yes, it works with Core 2 Duo / 4GB ram. I think i even tried with 3GB ram and it was working fine. zieglers Log in to Reply 11.

firenarrow said September 8, 2010 at 2:10 pm

Nice, I will try install tonight on a 4GB / Core 2 Duo. If I have any troubles (on system performance), I will let you know. Thank you very much ! Firenarrow Log in to Reply 12.

I write here in bold so everyone knows, I DO NOT generate solman keys. As long as you follow my article and keep host&client names as shown AND you send me your screen shot, then that’s the only way I can help. Zieglers ■
