Download and Setup Java Runtime Environment

SAP needs JRE to run properly. To download the newest version, type in „download java se runtime environment“ to a search engine. You get to the site a similar site to this one:

Choose the most current Windows x64.exe file, download it and install on your PC.

Start SAP Application Server Installation Process

Make sure that you run installation process under user with administrator privileges.

Unpack downloaded file: „ABAP_7_03_SP04_64_bit_Trial_3_9_2_GB.rar“ and run following .exe file:  “\NWABAPTRIAL70304_64\SAP_NetWeaver_703_Installation_Master\DATA_UNITS\BS2011_IM_WINDOWS_X86_64\sapinst.exe

After few seconds, popup window comes up, which informs you, that you will be logged off from the system. This is necessary to proceed to continue in installation process.

If you click “OK”, you will be logged of and after logging back into the system, command line window with the following information should appear and you are going to be able to continue with the installation right away.

If it is not your case and you don’t see any command line window after you log in, you should run installation process once more and if you get to the same installation phase, choose “Continue with the old option”

Installation Process: Define Parameters

You can also choose to log off by yourself later on. You can also continue with the installation even after restarting your computer. You just need to run installation file once more.

In such case, you will have to repeat the same installation process and you will get to the following point, where you will be prompted to choose running installation either from new or old option. Choose “Continue with the old option”, to be able to continue with our installation.

Then installation checks your system and all the prerequisites, which need to be met to be able to continue. If any problem is found, you might see the following window.

Just click on “Yes” to see what prerequisites your system does not meet.

If you will have to do some changes to your OS, stop the installation “File->Exit”. Do the necessary changes. Restart computer if needed. Run sapinst.exe again and continue installation from the point where you stopped by choosing “Continue with the old option” in window that will come up.

In my case, I had to increase swap size to 20480 MB (here is how you do it on Windows 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-virtual-memory-size#1TC=windows-7). It is not required to meet all of the requirements to continue with the installation. I left the “Operating System Version” issue unresolved.

Hit “Next” and if popup window comes up again, click „Yes“ to continue with installation process.

Installation Process: Summary

Parameter Summary screen comes up. You can go through the list to check if you want to change some values. If so, feel free, otherwise you can continue without any changes.

People do most changes for System ID, which is the name of your system and change passwords.

Notice: in this state, in some cases installation may not proceed further. Most often, the problem is that you don’t have enough of space on your hard drive.

Installation Process: Execute

Perfect, installation finally starts and lets hope that you are going to make it for the first time without any problem ;). Unfortunately, this is probably not going to happen, but lets be optimistic.

The longest part is “Import ABAP”. This can take about an hour. Depends on your system.
