what do you mean by "because of problem on develop ABAP"? if these problems are within the data(base) re-installing might not solve the problem....

The problem is:

In English language, we can debug ABAP program anytime, but in Japanese language, sometime we can not debug ABAP program.

Did you meet the problem?

^^ meaning the problems occurs ONLY sometimes and not always? when you re-install your ECC please keep in mind that this will not alter the database contens when the database will be re-used (homogeneous system copy for example..); by merely re-installing the sap executables (= installing central instance) i doubt that the debugging issue will be solved...did you already involve SAP in this?

Hi,

you want to install SAP on existing database.

proceed as follows.

run sapinst.exe

SAP ERP 2005 Support Release 2 -> Additional Software Life-Cycle Tasks ->System Copy ->Oracle ->Target System-> Central System->Based on AS ABAP->Central System Installation

default settings -> select custom

SAP System Parameters

SID : enter old SID

Installation drive : enter instalaltion drive for central instance

Master password:

enter master password you can used old password

SAP System User Domain: select appropriate for you installation type.

SAP System Administrator:

if you want to change default (master ) password else press next

Database Installation:

now follow the screen instruction

might be it's ask for DDIC user password for 000 client provide it.

after successful installation of CI you need to install SAP license again.
