MAXDB installation fails for ABAP WAS trial on Windows 7, 64 bit machine

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I downloaded the Trial ABAP WAS from SDN's download section. I am trying to install it on Windows 7 64 bit machine.

It.

It fails to execute: <...\NWASABAPTRIAL70206\MAXDBTOOLS\maxdb-studio-desktop-win-32bit-i386-7_8_01_16\SDBINST.exe>

It tries to execute for Windows 32 bit but the machin in 64 bit so it gives error.

DId anyone face such issue? How to resolve this for successful installation?

Regards,

Daman

Hi,

Obviously you have taken the 32 bit installable. Take the 64 bit software.

Had the same problem.

The 64-bit ABAP NW 7.02 trial did come with 32 bit Max DB studio desktop, and this interfeared with installation.

Try downloading the 64 bit MaxDB studio from here

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/maxdb-downloads

this solved my issue.

In my Windows 7 64 bits the version with following link is ok.

[SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 7.02 SP6 64-bit Trial|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/downloads?rid=/library/uuid/1048e401-ab3d-2e10-4d84-b9f27339c54b]

For me the maxdb studio in the archive is ok for install.
