Hello,

During the installation of NW 741 (for a Gateway 2.0 system) after I provide the media file for the Kernal:

An error occurred while processing option SAP NetWeaver 7.4 Support Release 1 > MS SQL Server > SAP Systems > Application Server ABAP > Standard System > Standard System( Last error reported by the step: Execution of the command "C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Temp\sapinst_exe.3752.1393270590\SAPCAR.exe -x -v -i -f E:\NW74\51047455_10\DATA_UNITS\K_741_U_WINDOWS_X86_64\DBINDEP\._SAPJVM6.SAR, sapjvmmanifest.mf" finished with return code 40. Output: processing archive E:\NW74\51047455_10\DATA_UNITS\K_741_U_WINDOWS_X86_64\DBINDEP\._SAPJVM6.SAR... SAPCAR: the option -i has no effect when working with old archives. format error in header). You can now:

Choose Retry to repeat the current step.

Choose Log Files to get more information about the error.

Stop the option and continue with it later.

Log files are written to C:\Program Files/sapinst_instdir/NW740SR1/MSS/INSTALL/NW740SR1/MSS/STD/ABAP.

Any idea that my cause this error?

Cheers

Hello,

It looks like the problem with DVD. Could you please check if DVD was downloaded completely?

Thanks,
