I feel the above error might be because of the getInstalledReleasesWin() is of wrong version format.Can any one tell me wat is the right version to be used

Kindly help me in resolving this issue..

Hi,

the following eror is the main reason why your installation won't continue:

"

MaxDB sdbuninst: found instance J2E

MaxDB sdbuninst: cannot remove package "Database Kernel": first you have to remove all instances

"

That means you already/still have an exisisting MaxDB instance on your laptop, which has not been removed totally yet.

If you have access to OSS, please take a look at note 599129:

You must stop and delete all database instances that were installed with

the software package to be deleted.

1. Identify the database instances (there is usually only one database

instance).

Use the following command:

dbmcli db_enum

2. Stop all database instances for which the <dependent_path> directory

to be deleted is displayed using the following command:

dbmcli -d <database_name> -u <dbm_user>,<password> db_offline

3. Delete the database instances using the following command:

dbmcli -d <database_name> -u <dbm_user>,<password> db_drop

4. If you are sure no other MaxDB instances should exist on the machine <b>and</b> no other MaxDB software packages should exist either, then you'd have to perform a complete uninstallation of the SAP DB or MaxDB software.

To uninstall the complete SAP DB or MaxDB software, enter the

following command:

sdbuninst -all

5. You should be able to (re)install your sneak preview SAP NW2004S afterwards.

Hi Roland,

Thanks for the reply.

I was trying to remove the J2E instance by watever commands u had given but it was throwing some authorisation error..There fore i had manually gone through the registry and deleted the instances but it does n't solve the issue.Is there is any registry cleaning tool is available like the SAP reg cleaner tool for the SAP ABAP version....

or is there is any way to remove it..

As of noe i have deleted the SAP related folders manually from the C drive and removed the SAP instances manually from the registry.

Is there any installation and possible error resolving guide is available for the Sneak preview edition...

with thanks

austin

Hi,

sry for not answering sooner.

If you a) want to delete the MaxDB / SAP DB registry entries and b) do no longer have a MaxDB or SAP DB database instance on the machine, then you could use the attached cleanup tool.

Roland
