Former Member

Hi

I am kinda lost here.

I have installed SAP server using SAP Solution Manager 4.0 SR1 and oracle on a windows2000 IBM I386 server.

I am trying to built a KM and now i am lost what to do next. can anyone tell me where I should go and get the instruction on what to do next?

From my research i found out that I need to install Content Server first. I found the document from here

https://websmp108.sap-ag.de/instguidesNW04

So please tell me i am on the right path

Thanks

Thanks

It sounds like you are maybe interested in Knowledge Warehouse, which is separate from Knowledge Management. Could that be the case?

yes. I didn't realize that those two r different.

Please tell where to go get the instruction on the ware house.

You will find the install documentation for Knowledge Warehouse under http://service.sap.com/instguides.

Please reward points for helpful answers.

Thanks for the link. But can you tell me whether i need to follow the SAP NetWeaver 2004 guide first or not. And how can get the DVD's that it requires?

I have awarded the points...

If you follow the link, you will eventually get to <a href="https://service.sap.com/nw04installation">https://service.sap.com/nw04installation</a> guides. Under "SAP KW" you will find a document outlining what you need to know about installing SAP KW 7.0.

Hi Anwarul - I get the sense that this is not what you are looking for. Maybe if you explain briefly what it is that you are trying to do, I or someone else here can point you in the right direction. Some things regarding KW have changed, this will hopefully clear things up.

Well I am trying to build a knowledge base warehouse. I never installed any SAP server or anything before. Anyway The guy who you use to do all this left and before he left he told me to follow the SAP Solution Manager 4.0 SR1 on windows: Oracle guide. I was able to install that and connect with a client GUI. but i am lost what to do next. I found the guide you talked about where it says I need the SAP NETWEAVER '04 SR 1 COmponenets DVD. i am trying to locate that DVD from a box full of SAP DVD's...

Anwarul - okay, then you are not so far off, this sounds okay, although SR1 is somewhat old.

I'm not a SAP KW expert myself unfortunately. If you are not able to find your DVD, you can probably get the media from http://service.sap.com/swdc if you browse by component, find "SAP Netweaver 04" and then go through via Windows / Oracle to see what you can find. I think you'll find x64 media there. I can't be certain, though, since I'm really not an expert in this area.

Hi

I have found The NetWeaver 04 components DVD and also the one with SAP WEB AS JAVA but both of them doesn't have a exe file. And i was doing some research on how to install them but i am going no where. One Note said i need to install "Software Delivery Manager SDM Release 6.20" but i can't find the DVD or where i can down load it from. BTW the down load link you gave me doesn't let me down load anything...

Anyway Can anyone tell me what i need to install in order to get that SDM.

Thanks.

Hi Anwarul - the issues you are having are specific to system installation and don't have to do with Knowledge Management & Collaboration, so I'd recommend that you try searching other forums for answers and posting there if you can't find via search.

The "SAP Netweaver Platform" forum looks like it has some general questions about SAP KW installs - other forums probably do, too. I can't tell where you are in your install process.

Also be sure that you know what version of the product you want, since installation of this has changed in the past. If you are new to SAP and SAP installs in general, you're going to want to do some reading + research. For instance, have a look at the "IT Scenarios at a Glance" pages on help.sap.com that outline the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/9da60f8d7921a6e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm">requirements for SAP KW in NetWeaver 7.0</a> (note that you are asking about NetWeaver 04). KW is now part of the "Enterprise Knowledge Management" IT scenario. Note that this page is telling you you need a "dual stack" install (Java + ABAP), as well as the Content Server, TREX and SAP GUI components.

Also - that download link definitely works, it's where all our customers download software. This, too, has changed a little recently but will work for the version you are interested in.
