This thread is a little bit old, but I have a question with this issue:

In our product we are using MaxDB 7.7.06 Build 009-123-202-944. In my test systems with Windows 7 x64 I can install this version without any problems. But some customers of us, who also has Windows 7 x64 or Server 2008 x64, got the same error message during the installation.

STDERR: file C:/Windows/SysWOW64/drivers/etc/services not found and the solution in this thread solves the problem.

But on my systems I could't find this file and the installations was done.

Why the MaxDB installation sometimes need it and sometime not? Where is the different? Maybe I should copy it during our setup before we are calling the MaxDB installation?

It is installable on Window x64 vista

The error appears because the service file is missing.

copy the service file from C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ to C:/Windows/SysWOW64/drivers/etc/

the service file is needed to add

sql6 7210/tcp # SAP DB

sql30 7200/tcp # SAP DB

sapdbni72 7269/tcp # SAP DB

vmake 7792/tcp # SAP DB
