ABAP sneak preview (NSP) patch without Solution Manager after patch 11

I'm wondering if there is any plan to allow us ABAP sneak preview users to patch our system beyond patch level 11. So far I kept my NSP system up-to-date by patching it regularly. But now the Solution Manager is required to download the current patch level 12.
Is there any SolMan sneak preview available? Is there any add-on to upgrade the NSP itself into a SolMan system? - After all SolMan runs on 2004s ...
I noticed that trial version with SP12 is out - does this mean that the new strategy is to replace with each and every SP the Sneak-Preview-System? If there wasn't the lengthy (and often painful) setup I wouldn't mind. On top one would have to export and re-import all developments and configurations one would like to keep. Can you (SAP) not simply provide for us non-SolMan-havers the Service Packs as a simple and much more compact download (compared to the entire NSP download) ?

Hi George,
Try to delete the registry keys mentioned here Re: How to uninstall Netweaver 7.0 ABAP trial version ?
To use it, run the clean up tool for the registry, press the radio button for 'Uninstall Service', enter 'NSP' for SID and '00' for the number.
This will only delete the registry entries for the application server, not for the database.
To access the DB via MMC, the service SAP DB WWW must be started. To do so, go to 'Start'->'Run...' and enter 'net start sapdbwww'. After the service is started, you can use the database manager within SAP MMC or just browse to <a href="http://localhost:8000/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=000">http://localhost:8000/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?sap-client=000</a>, which will actually use the same HTML UI.
Anyway, if the uninstallation runs normal, you shouldn't have any problems with registry keys.
Try this:
- Unistall system and DB
- Use the registry clean tool
- Delete the folder of InstallShield (usually C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Universal\SAP)
- Reboot your system
- Start the installation again without running any application (no firewall, antivirus etc.)
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Klaus

Is it possible to apply service packs to NW04s ABAP Sneak Preview?

Service Pack 7 to NW04s contains the DEMO_REGEX_TOY, which I'd like to install in my ABAP sneak preview system. I have some questions about that:
1. Is it possible to apply maintenance to the Sneak Preview?
2. What service packages need to be isntalled to upgrade the sneak preview rel/level from 7/5 to 7/7: 6 and then 7, or just 7? That is, are those service packs cumulative?
3. I am unable to download the service packs from https://service.sap.com using the download manager. I get an error in the trace output that says, "Unable to Find Certification Path." I have no idea what that means, or how to circumvent that problem. Is there an alternative way to get the Service Packs?
Thanks for any help/guidance you all can provide!

Thanks.
I did manage to download the packs. For others who may have similar difficulties, the solution to my download problem was to specify (in IE) http://service.sap.com as a trusted site. That allowed Download Manager to get the files.
I'll also add that I successfully applied packs 6 & 7, as well as SP 70020 (required to update SPAM before applying pack 7) and am now in business!
(Not sure I have the correct terminology for those - here's the file names I applied: KB70006.CAR, KB70007.CAR, KD70020.CAR)

ABAP sneak preview - BW: what is missing ?

Hi all,
Despite little documentation, I finally managed to get BW working in the ABAP sneak preview (thanks to Re: ABAP Preview and BW).
According to the SDN download page, the announced full edition (J2EE+ABAP) will also include "SAP BW Java Components". Can anyone tell me what these components are and what functionality I am missing with just the ABAP engine installed ? Specifically I'd like to try out the BI SDK. Are these "SAP BW Java Components" required for the BI SDK ?
Thanks,
Cheers,
Heiko

Hi Raja,
please have a look at Topic: BW Standalone Version.

I believe that I had to install the jre in order to get the installation to run, but this was when I was installing the SP4 version. Maybe you do need to do it, but I am confused as to why it is not in the instructions. Anyway, lets go that route and see what happens.
Download and install the jdk, this will also have the jre(java runtime envirnoment.
J2SE SDK version 1.4.2_08 or 1.4.2_09 (Sun JDK 1.5 not tested). You can download this from Sun Microsystems at http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_09/index.html. Please note that version 1.4.2_10 may cause installation problems.
Once installed, we need to create a envirnoment variable.
Right-click on My computer, properties, click advanced, enviornment varibles, under "System Variables", click new, name the variable as SAPINST_JRE_HOME, make the value as C:\j2sdk1.4.2_09\jre
The path above will be the directory that the jdk is installed to, so check the file path.
In my case, i have jdk 1.4.2_09, if you use 08, then you need to make that adjustment.
Next, reboot, and try the installation again.

ABAP Sneak Preview - Cannot Logon

Hi Friends,
I have succesfully installed the ABAP sneak preview (from the DVD I got at TechEd2006) on XP professional, but not able to logon. I have Norton Internet Security 2006. I had no luck with NIS disabled. Here are my logon pad & services file details. Question is do I have to install the Loopback adapter? (I have a wireless home network).

Yes, you need the loopback adapter, after that make sure that you update the host file also.

Applying BW Patch on Solution Manager

Hello Experts,
I have few doubts:
1. How to apply BW patch (BI 7.0)on Solution Manager(3.0 or higher)
2. If we apply BW patch on SM, how does it differentiate from BW system(Data Model, Reporting etc)
3. Are there any websites or pdf files for SM with BI Patch.
4. And, why do we need to apply apply BI patch on Solution Manager?
Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards,
Thangjam

Hi Thangjam,
I have only some infos for SolMan 4.0:
- there is no difference between patching a 'stadalone BI' and a BI that is part of SolMan
- of coruse, you have to make sure that the patch queues are consistent (CRT: ST)
- for E2E Diagnostics, InfoCubes are used to store performance data, etc. (as of SolMan 4.0 SP 13)
Kind regards,
Bernd

Where can I find an Access key for the user with "AS ABAP sneak preview" ?

Hi all,
I have installed AS ABAP sneak preview on my laptop.
I use username "bcuser" and password "minisap". when I try to create some objects like, i.e. Function Group for Function Module, then it ask for an access key.
Where can I find an access key for this ABAP SNEAK PREVIEW for user "bcuser"?
I have gone thru some documents, I know we need to register user in OSS and need to get an access key from the marketplace but can I register this user "bcuser" or it's already register? I need some more specific information to resolve this issue.
Please advise me on above question.
Thanks,
Haresh Solanki

Hi Rich,
I have entered ZH_XYZ as a Function Group name to create a new function group. While I am creating it, it asks for the Access Key. I tries to enter an Access Key here for the first time and it says wrong entry for access key.
Also if I try to create new Function Module, it ask me to select the Function Group. As I couldn't create a new Function Group, I tried to select from existing(from SAP System's FG), still it asks for an access key, I enter the an Access Key here, then also it says wrong entry.
I really got confused with this Access Key thing, can you provide me some insights?
Thanks,
Haresh Solanki
