Hi,

I had the same error and despite installing the Looback Adapter and setting permissions the problem still occurred.

I was installing from a CD onto which I had saved the installation files.

I eventually copied all the installation files onto the drive where I was trying to install and then everything worked fine.

Hi Markus,

I had the same error, and got around it by adding the SAP_<SID>_GlobalAdmin group in local group SAP_LocalAdmin on SAP transport host.

Probably broke a few security rules - but it works.

Thanks, Matt.

Hi Markus:

You host name is ThinkPad4 ?

Please take a look to note 611361; you can have a hostname issue here.

Hope this helps!

Hi,

I had the same error. After installing Loop-back network adapter everything worked. It is not mentioned in Installation Guide but it mentioned as requirement list.

I hope this will help.

Hi all,

I've installed MS Loopback adapter, but still got the same error messages.

I've read the note and also have tried several tricks, such as adding hostname into ../etc/host still no use.

Hi Zulfikar ,

I had the same problem - installed loopback, share the directory usr/sap as sapmnt, set incremental permissions for all useres... and adding Information etc/hosts and service. After I restartet the install procedure several times, it "jumps over" from pahse 3 to the next phases - hope that the install process now finally works till phase 31 and all services will start as desired.

Before I installed again (I guess the 4th time last weekend ) - I uninstalled previous Versions. First I used the Uninstall provided by the registry cleaningtool and the sapinstall > uninstall procedure - but still there were sap-directories, sap services running and several settings in my registry aktivated.

Because of this, I deleted the sapdb, usr and programs/sapinstall file structure.

I guess, previous registry settings were the reason, why I couldn't select the default-name "J2E" Instance anymore ... With msconfig > services I deactivated sap-processes. Reboot of the notebook and used the XP-Tool regedt32 to delete SAP, SAPJ* and LEGACY_SAP* Settings in my registry - the notebook reboot was fine. After this "deeper" registry cleaning I could use the default naming conventions "J2E" 00, 01 again.

best regards
