SAP JVM 6's JDK installation procedure for NWDS 7.3

[Former Member]

Hello Colleagues,

how is the SAP JVM 6's JDK installation procedure for NWDS 7.3 und Windows 7, please?

At Installation Guide for the NWDS I found the note regarding the option SAP JVM instead of the Oracle JVM.

The installation of Oracle JVM is quite simple (setup.exe) but how ist process here for SAP JVM.

I couldn't find any documentation regarding the installation process under windows.

As well no exe file at downloaded sar file.

Only "vcredist_x86.msi"???

Download SAP JVM6 vom Service Market Place

Support Packages and Patches --> A-Z Index -->N > SAP NETWEAVER> SAP EHP1 FOR SAP NETWEAVER 7.3--> Entry by Component --> Application Server Java --> SAP JVM 6.1--> Windows Server on IA32 32bit--> SAPJVM6_42-10006998.SAR

Please, could anyone help me here?

Many thanks in advance!

Regards,

Jochen

The SAPJVM6_42-10006998.SAR file is an archive that needs to be extracted with the SAPCAR.EXE utility. Place both files in the same folder and from the command prompt, type in "SAPCAR -xvf SAPJVM6_42-10006998.SAR" to extract the archive.

Hi Stefan,

excuse me but the question was regarding the setup of SAP JVM.

The archive unzip process is clear and already known for me.

In the mean time I found the installation process must be only a copy and paste for the SAP JVM. I copied all extracted files under ...\exclipse\jre and NWDS starts without any errors. Could you confirm this approach?

Many thanks in advance!

Regards,

Jochen

Jochen,

I dont recall if I had to do that.

just extract, that's it.

you just specify the sap jvm location in the SapNetweaverDeveloperStudio.ini

-vm

d:\Tool\SAP\sapjvm_6\bin\

Hi Jun,

great, many thanks! In the mean time, I learned you have only to copy paste the whole SAP JVM files under ...\eclipse\jre\ , that's it. NWDS works fine. The path ...\eclipse\jre\ is the default path and no adjustments required at SapNetweaverDeveloperStudio.ini. If you use a different path, adjustment required at ini file.

Regards,

Jochen
