Netweaver install win8

I'm trying to install SAP_NetWeaver_7.02 64bit trial on an windows 8 computer and am confronted by the following error report:

Program is starting... Please wait!

ERROR      2015-03-02 18:17:43.45 [syxxcniwrapper.cpp:105]

           NI::CNIInit::CNIInit() lib=syslib module=syslib

FSL-03000  Error initializing network library. SAPRETURN: 0xffffffff

Exit status of child: 255

I followed the instructions of an ABAP-Introduction book, despite it requires win7. so the questions popping into my head are:

- do I have this error, because I use win 8 ?

- is there a younger version of this trial for win 8?

- or can it be fixed with a virtual server and if yes, how do I create one in win8?

- or do I have to install windows 7 or linux on a virtual machine and run NetWeaver_7.02 64bit trial there? (least preferable)

I've already read the two other threads with the same error, but they didn't really help me.

Thanks a lot

wow, I totally overlooked the first error report:

iaextract c: 926. I suppose it occured after I had removed the extracted file to some other folder with a long path. But how to fix this?

Hi Pascal,


FSL-03000  Error initializing network library. SAPRETURN: 0xffffffff

Have you maintained the correct host file entries before installation ? Try to maintain host file as like


127.0.0.1  localhost.localdomain  localhost

<IP of system >  <Host name>

& try again.

Hope this will help you.

Thank you for the quick response.

Excuse me for sounding stupid, but I have no idea what you are talking about. What does "maintain host file entry" mean and where do you write those two lines?

Hi

1.  Have you disable the Firewall and Windows UAC?

2. Could you share the full log?
