Primary LanguageShell

Please take a look at the new project SAPNW752SP04

The openSUSE Leap 15.1 Vagrant box prepared to install SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP 752 SP04 Developer Edition wechris/SAPNW752SP04

Introduction

The openSUSE Leap 42.3 Vagrant box can be used to create a VirtualBox instance with Vagrant to install SAP NW AS ABAP 752 SP01 Developer Edition .

All recommended system preparations are done by packer and vagrant, as described at Installing ABAP AS on Oracle VirtualBox without the proxy part.

The pre-built Vagrant Box is now avaiable on HashiCorps Vagrant Cloud:

https://app.vagrantup.com/wechris

The Packer calls are no longer necessary. If you want to create your own Vagrant Box with Packer see the optional section below.

The step D.1. sudo -i and FINALLY, we run the installation, by entering the command ./install.sh must be done manually!

Prerequisites

On OS X VirtualBox and Vagrant, is available via Homebrew on Windows via Chocolatey.

OS X:

$ brew install virtualbox
$ brew install vagrant

optional:

$ brew install vagrant-manager

Usage

Clone the reporitory wechris/SAPNW752SP01.

Download and extract the TD752SP01.partXX.rar files to the folder: ./sapinst

The actual download (in the form of several .rar files), along with more information, is available here:

SAPStore: ABAP 7.52SP01

./sapinst/TD752SP01

Vagrant

Only VirtualBox:

If the german keyboard is not desired, comment the following line in the vagrant file

# config.vm.provision "shell", path: "install/changetogerman.sh"

If the gnome desktop is not desired, comment the following line in the vagrant file

# config.vm.provision "shell", path: "install/gnome.sh"
vagrant up --provision --provider virtualbox

Wait until the vagrant command is finished. Then restart the instance with:

vagrant reload

Now you can use the VirtualBox UI:

Login

Logins:

  • vagrant/vagrant
  • root/vagrant
