SAP Team,

Please advise the status for this issue. Looks like not only myself is facing the issue. Can someone please verify the link?

Happy New Year 2010

I notified SAP about this problem several weeks ago. I have a ticket open with them (2975915) to solve this. They haven't provided any alternatives to downloading the program (I asked.) They have no estimate about when someone can help. Basically, i'm at a dead end, which is unfortunate, because i absolutely depend on the program to do my job.

Their helpdesk mentioned people were on vacation, and so they can't help. This was on 12/22. I guess the right people to solve this seemingly simple problem are on an awesome, lengthy vacation!

Hello,

Are you trying to download the 'community edition' of maxdb ? SDN id is enough authorized to download them.

HI,

Yes, I am trying to download the community version.

Really not sure why I am receiving that error. Any other alternative for me to download the database?

Really at wits end

I have the same issue - regardless of which version I attempt to download (windows/linux/7.6/7.7)

The last time I downloaded, I had no issues; back in the spring I believe..

Any ideas?

Thanks.
