Connection Setup Problem-Ubuntu GUI720 NW7.0

[Former Member]

I have successfully installed SAP GUI Java on Ubuntu 11.04. The problem I got is that:

The drop down System Menu is: 'none' (x)

so is the Group/server

our Group Admin is currently not available, but I do know all the required info if I am to setup a new connection on Windows.

Thank You.

I have figured it all out (hope this might help others, who are interested in working on SAP GUI-Java 720-NW7.0, connectionType R/3) here it is:

I faced this problem when I was trying to configure the GUI with the SAP Client -SAP ERP CC 6.0- I could not find a way through importing a configuration file, yet I've dealt with this situation through the 'Expert mode'.. As:

For a simple direct connection

1. Open the SAP GUI (for Unix based OS>>> home/SAPClients/SAPGUI/bin/guilogon)

2. Create a New connection

3. Fill in the description field (ex. DEV)

4. Choose Connection type (R/3)

5. Within the Logon tab fill in the User & Client fields (ex.SUserX & 101)

6. Then move to the Advanced tab, and check the Expert mode

7. Write the following connection line as:

conn=/H/172.148.55.16/S/3200&clnt=101&user=john

where:

/H/ is the Group/Server or Application Server IP

/S/ is the System No. or Port No. which should be assigned a default value '32' followed by your SYSNO. (ex. 3205)

The rest of the line is automatically written for you; as you have already done step 5.

Other than a simple direct connection "MessageServer"

Here is your connection line:

conn=/M/**.*../S/32/G/*.*..*

where:

/M/messageserverIP

/S/System No.

/G/applicationserverIP

Hope You Find This Useful & Helpful. Thank You.
