Using SAPCAR.exe in Windows server 2003.

Hi,

when I execute sapcar.exe to uncompress support packages, the command prompt appears for a while but after disappear.

Where do I have to put SAPCAR.exe for executing it correctly, uncar the SPs and what is the syntax to do this?

Yours sincerely

when you run command sapcar alone without any parameters, it will prompt all the possible parameters options. have a look at that.

standard is using -xvf

If you have further errors when running the command, please copy & paste the command output.

cheers,

Vincent

Hi,

First, you need to download the right version of sapcar for your OS, you can get that from Mrketplace, then just drop the sapcar in the same folder as the files you need to decompress, after that just open a command prompt and go to that folder, then just type:

SAPCAR -xvf <file to decompress>

that should fix your problem.

Hi,

the file SAPCAR.exe for working properly with the command prompt, must be put in <b>C:\Windows\System32</b> otherwise executing the command SAPCAR -xvf <file to decompress.CAR> it will not be possible.
