SAPGui Java 7.10 Win -- Installation error

[Former Member]

I try to install SAPGui for Java 7.10 and get the following entries in guiinstall.log:

Load native optional resource : templates.jar

no external package for optional resource : D:\Downloads\templates.jar

load optional resource failed

java.io.FileNotFoundException: JAR entry templates.jar not found in D:\Downloads\PlatinGUINT_0-10003514.JAR

Installation of SAPGUI 7.10 completed with errors.

Any ideas where to get templates.jar?

Hello Matthias,

templates.jar is an <b>optional</b> package you can create on your own. For a description, please refer to chapter 7.1 "Administration - Configuration Files", section "Installing Custom Templates".

Usually, not having this templates.jar is not causing to state the guiinstall.log that the installation had errors. Do you see any other issue in the guiinstall.log?

Best regards

P.S. In the meantime there is SAP GUI for Java 7.10 rev 1 available.

Rolf,

thanks for the prompt reply.

There are two more entries:

Win32InstProcessor.registerInstallation(): can not create registryValue DisplayName, HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SAPGUI for Java 7.10 rev 1

Win32InstProcessor.registerInstallation(): can not create registryValue UninstallStringHKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\SAPGUI for Java 7.10 rev 1

I think they are mrely info entries since SAPGui for Java can be installed as non-Admin as of version 7, IIRC. At least I could install version 7.00rev5 and 7.00rev6 as non-Admin and both are still working.

Interestingly, I can lauch the Gui via guilogon.bat but when connecting I get another error message:

Hello,

the issue with the registry only causes the attempt to add the de-install entry in the "Add/Remove Programs" ("Programs and Features" on Vista) Control Panel to fail.

The problem loading the library might happen because of Visual C++ Libraries VS 2005 SP1(x86) has not been installed yet. This package (VCredist_x86.msi) is available in the bin directory of the SAP GUI for Java installation.

Best regards
