2004s on Windows Vista

Former Member

Hi all,

I wonder if it is possible to install the trial version of SAP NetWeaver 2004s on a Windows Vista system (Business Edition).

I tried it out but the installation process failed right in the beginning with an error log entry that states the installation program is not able to execute "RegOpenKeyEx". This error appears for several registry entries in the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\" folder. So step by step I set "full access rights" for the administrator role (I run the installation from this role) and continued. Now I have reached an entry where you can not change the rights for any user. It is the "gpsvc" entry. When I try to change anything there I get the error message "Access denied".

Did anyone have some experiences in installing the 2004s trial version on Windows Vista? Can anyone tell if it works?

If some SAP officials read this thread, could you please make a statement if Windows Vista is supported for 2004s? Thank you!

Regards,

Torben

had the same problem

when you add <sid>adm to the local administrators group it just goes fine

at some point the installation apparently switches to <sid>adm

Hi Torben,

I ran into the same problems that you are describing when trying to install the NW04S trial edition on a Windows Vista system.

I was able to complete the installation by changing the "Owner" of gpsvc to "Administrators" and then allowing Full Control to the "Administrators" group.

Hopefully, SAP will provide a more Vista-friendly installer at some point.

Hi Kim,

thanks to you for this answer.

Now I can start the installation process but when it reached phase 4 another error occured:

ERROR 2007-03-20 15:03:31

MUT-03001 Value of type HKeyClass has illegal value '0'.

ERROR 2007-03-20 15:03:31

FCO-00011 The step setRegistrySecurity with step key |NW_Java_OneHost|ind|ind|ind|ind|0|0|NW_Onehost_System|ind|ind|ind|ind|1|0|NW_System|ind|ind|ind|ind|5|0|setRegistrySecurity was executed with status ERROR .

I am not sure what this error is about. Maybe it has something to do with the windows registry again.

Can anyone help?

I don't remember running in to this particular error, but I ended up doing a reinstall where I ran the setup binary in Windows 2003 Server compatibility mode; this resolved another problem I ran into with the J2EE engine not starting up correctly (failing with a message saying the OS version was not supported).

Hello Torben,

Were you able to solve "setRegistrySecurity" issue. I'm trying to install 2004sSP9 on windows vista machine and am facing the same issue.

Please respond.

Thanks.

Hi Kim,

so you did manage to install NW 7.0 on Vista? In particular, did you manage to install the Java AS?

If so, how did you get into "Windows 2003 Server compatibility mode" - are there any commandline options for sapinst.exe or how does this work?
