NW 2004s installation problem

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to install NW 2004s AS JAVA on Windows and Oracle 10.2 as a central installation. During the installation it fails on step 21 out of 36 with the following error messages:

SAP ERROR:

As I understand, the problem is with the laptop name.

Is there any way to overcome that?

Thank you and regards,

There's a max name length and some character restrictions for server names when it comes to installing SAP. There's 3 fixes to this.

1. Let's start w/ the worst fix: Adjust the install xml files to by-pass this error. If you manage to get SAP installed on an unsupported name, you may run into issues w/ various transactions (e.g. rz*) later on.

2. Rename your lap top. Yes, this may not always be possible.

3. Follow note 962955 regarding parameter SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME.
