Installing dialog instance on windows

[Former Member]

Hi Champs,

Im trying to install Netweaver EP WAS server with MaxDB on Windows XP. I am a beginner in basis activity. I have successfully installed Central Instance and it is up and running fine. Now I am trying to install a Dialog instance. But when I run the sapinst.exe again it does not show me an option to install dialog instance. I tried giving same SID but it didnt work. It didn't create a DI. Can you please tell me what steps I have to perform to create a DI associated with the current CI?

Regards,

Piyush.

Hi Uday,

Thanks for you prompt reply. I have this guide but I am finding difficulty in finding the correct way to install a DI. Can you please provide the steps that need to be performed? I tried running sapinst.exe again with same SID but it didnt work.

Hi Subhash,

I am using EP 7.0 SP 9. Does it support DI on a single machine? Also I got the dump from my client's DVD.

Hello Piyush,

Well on EP you need to install the Web dispatcher not the DI. But i never install a webdispatcher on a Central system so i am not sure.
