Installing developer workplace on a 64-bit windows machine

Hi All
I've seen versions of this question asked in various forums before, but they were either unanswered or answered unsatisfactorily. I've recently acquired a new 64-bit hp laptop with 8 gigs of ram at considerable expense. It seemed silly to get a 32-bit system, this being the year 2009 and all. Besides, all that memory...
I was surprised to discover that the developer workplace (available as part of SAP Netweaver PI 7.1 EHP1 and SAP Netweaver CE 7.1 EHP1 install) would not install on my machine. I am running 64-bit Vista by the way. I could not wait for Windows 7, since my previous machine died and had to be replaced.
Now my question is: is there a way to get the developer workplace installed on a 64-bit OS like Vista and if so, how?
I've seen reference to a kernel patch in SAP Note 1040931 (NTCLUST.SAR) with regards to installing on Vista or Windows Server 2008, but I'm not sure how to use it, if it is applicable. The error I'm getting while running sapinst is:
Running msiexec failed with return code 1603: undefined
Commandline was msiexec.exe /norestart /L sapmmcX86u.log /i sapmmcX86u.msi /qn
If you want the installer to retry, choose Yes. If you want the installer to abort the installation, choose No.
I cannot believe I am the only one running into this problem. Who wouldn't want to develop on such a machine??
Please comment.
Regards
Johan

Hi Johan,
I would recommend to run a virtual machine on your PC and install the Netweaver there.
I usally use VMWare Server with WindowsXP or SUSE there.
The advantange of this approach is that you can easily copy your installation later on and create sandboxes for any purpose.
Also you can easily move your Netweaver installation to other servers if necessary and you become independent of their host OS.
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers Frank

  • Installables for 32 bit windows machines

    Hello,
    It seems SAP has stopped providing installables for 32 bit windows machines. IS it correct?
    If yes which SAP versions can be installed on - Windows server 2003 SP2 (32 bit).
    Can we have ECC6 EHP4 based on SQL database on it?
    Thanks,
    Ambarish

    Hi,
    If you read the installation guide then following thing is mentioned there:
    As of SAP ERP 6.0 SR3, you must install an SAP ERP system only on 64-bit operating
    systems.
    For the dialog instance, you can still use a 32-bit operating system. Therefore, you
    only see the folder Software Life-Cycle Options on the Welcome screen when you start the
    installation from a 32-bit installation master DVD.
    You might need to install dialog instances on 32-bit operating systems if you want to
    use 32-bit SAP NetWeaver components, such as Adobe document services. However,
    first check whether such 32-bit components can run on 64-bit operating systems. If
    so, we recommend running these 32-bit components on a 64-bit operating system.
    Thanks
    Sunny

    Hi Gnittala,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I debug the javascript code in firebug on windows 8 and found that firefox would be not responding while executing "document.body.append(myPlugin)".
    My javascript code is below:
    function openLocalApp(cmdPath, cmdLine) {
    var npMyPlugin = navigator.mimeTypes["application/mozilla-npruntime-scriptable-plugin"];
    if (npMyPlugin) {
    var myPlugin = document.createElement("embed");
    myPlugin.style.visibility = "hidden";
    myPlugin.type = "application/mozilla-npruntime-scriptable-plugin";
    myPlugin.width = 0;
    myPlugin.height = 0;
    document.body.appendChild(myPlugin);
    myPlugin.foo(cmdPath, cmdLine);
    } else {
    alert("Failed to create the plugin!");
    And firefox plugin's source code copys from the following link:
    http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/modules/plugin/samples/npruntime/
    Just changed a little.
    I know the sample is very old, but newer proper sample couldn't be found. So if you can give me a newer sample, I'll appreciate.
    Thanks again.

  • Can't install iTunes 12.0 on 32-bit Windows XP

    I recently successfully upgraded my iPhone to IOS 8.  When I tried to connect the phone to iTunes 11.1.5.5 on my 32-bit Windows XP laptop, I got a message that I needed to have iTunes 11.2 or higher.  Following the upgrade download link, I kept getting to the download request but never to a file save dialog.  I talked with support a couple of times, but all links they gave me to various version of iTunes did not work (either they were for 11.1.5.5 or 64-bit 12.0). I managed to find a link to 12.0 that did not specify word size, but it turned out to be a 64-bit version that would not install.
    Where can I find a 32-bit version of iTunes 12.0 that works with Windows XP?

    See the Further Information area of Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for download advice and direct links if required.

    In your profile file on your local pc. There is a property called something with Trimming. You should set this value to "off". Restart the installation and you will see it will work.

  • How can i create/install oracle 10 rac on my single windows machine

    can anyone help me to step by step install oracle 10g rac(rac environment) on my single window machine.
    if its not possible then y ?
    thxs

    Vmware is available for both Windows & Linux.
    Secondly you have to decide whether you want the guest OS (OS on which you would configure RAC) to be Windows or Linux ?
    And before everything, check your PC configuration. As Tim mentions in those articles, to run this setup, you need lots of RAM n power.
    Perhaps 4 GB of RAM and Core 2 Duo 2 Ghz + processor. If you are not having an appropriate configuration, it may not even run properly or your might hit memory dump errors on host OS.

  • Crazy to install CS2 on Quad Core 64 bit Windows 7 notebook?

    I've been a video producer/director/editor since 1970 and have witnessed most all the progress and insanity of the "corporate wars" to dominate video production and later, video editing.  I no longer see any reason to differentiate between still photography, video production, editing, web authoring, print production, graphics, CGI, CAD etc...ad nauseum. My dream has long been to have one very powerful laptop that could do most everything that a creative person desired on location anywhere in the world.
    My new notebook is an ASUS Quad Core G71GX with 6 GB RAM - an Nvidia Geoforce GTX 260M - and 2 - 500 GB, 7200 rpm hard drives - Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OS. These days I shoot most video using a Canon SX1 IS at 1080 30p and the files are playing back beautifully on the 1920x1400 display at full frame rate. So for me that covers the basics. I will be upgrading from Windows 7 Home Premium to Ultimate shortly. Does anyone have issues/questions about the platform?
    As to the software . . . I have been using Adobe stuff for 20 years or so.but did not get into their video editing products until Premiere 6.5. Than I jumped in with both feet and became a beta tester for the CS2 video collection. I still have my complimentary Premiere Pro 2.0 and it still works on my older XP Pro notebooks.
    But now we are here in 2010 and all the major PC platforms are running 64 bit Operating Systems and I just figure that I should hold out for a true 64 bit Master Collection [which many people call CS5]. In the meantime I decided to install my CS2 Creative Suite and Premiere Pro 2.0 just so I could have the benefit of these programs while I am waiting for the 64 bit to release.
    I purchased my CS2 back in 2005 as a download and last night made the attempt to install it onto the ASUS. As expected the serial number did not work so I called Adobe Installation support and got started after they prompted me for the "challenge" code. When I entered it the installation began nicely UNTIL the first folder [CS_2.0_UE_Ret_D1] finished loading and UP POPPED a window saying "Please insert CD #2" with only an OK button. Well, I didn't have any CDs because the suite was delivered as a download way back when and there seems to be no way to get to Disk 2 folder.
    I finally decided to Quit the install when up pops a window that says [paraphrasing]. Your Photoshop program on Disc 1 has been verified and so try again to install. I said OK and up pops a window with all the various programs and the option to select Install. I selected each one [except GoLive because I now have Dreamweaver CS4] and proceeded. I sort of kluged my way through the transition from D1 to D2 to D3 to D4 folders and by all indications had a successfully installed, registered and activated CS2 suite on the ASUS notebook. Restarted the machine.
    Opened Photoshop and up comes an error message "Your Adobe Photoshop user name, organization or serial number is missing or invalid. The application cannot continue and must now exit" "OK", which I pressed and Photoshop closed. Checked the other CS2 programs and none of them would open.
    I would appreciate any pointers on how to get CS2 Creative Suite to install properly since Adobe Tech Support says such installation help is out of date and recommended this forum.
    BTW: I run Videography Lab and am the "seminal author of videography". OCT 1972 American Cinematographer. I have a different take on the meaning of videography than most folks. After 38 years of research and contemplation I believe "Videography means 'I know to write' or conversely 'writing my knowing'" The platform that I've been talking about is the technology tool that enables such communication in "the Age of Videography" [Miller Freeman Publishing - 1996].
    Call me crazy and than help me get this sorted out
    Bob Kiger - [url removed by host]
    PS: Does anyone beside me expect a sudden and dramatic shootout between Final Cut Studio & Adobe Creative Suite soon?

    Hi Michael--
    Upon continued research we found your statement "CS 2 isn't compatible with Windows 7 32-bit no less 64-bit." not quite true. We grant you that, in it's raw state, Windows 7 will not install, activate, register etc. CS2 programs. That's been the Adobe position for quite a while.
    Now that we have Windows 7 in hand and can play we found that if you have Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate edition you can acquire for $89.95 and download/install in an hour or so "Windows Virtual PC" and "Windows XP Mode".[Note: This feature is not available on Home editions].
    We purchased the platform and once it is installed we had a "Windows XP platform" on our Windows 7 machine. From that point forward the installation of CS2 and many other of our old favorite programs was a snap. We've opened and worked with Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign etc. with no problems.
    And, by the way, Premiere Pro 2.0 intalled easily on Windows 7. We're testing it now with some sub-1080p projects.
    As to the long nagging problem of Adobe Installer not recognizing the downloaded CS2 CAB files during installation, we worked around by just saying OK when the installer asked for the next disc and immediately clicked on the desired disc in a seperate exlorer window which contained all the download files.
    So that's the workaround for us. Now we wait to see who wins the race to enchant users with 64 bit editing and imaging suites.
    Thanks for all your help.
