mini SAP ABAP version cannot connect

[Former Member]

I recently installed the mini SAP sneak preview and had it working on my laptop as of last week. Today it doesnt work, giving me the following error:

**************************************************

Sapgui 640 [Build 8971] Tue Nov 22 15:41:32 2005

: 'partner not reached (host 10.10.0.10, service sapdp00)

Component NI (network interface)

Release 640

Version 37

Return Code -10

System Call SiPeekPendConn

Error No 10061

Error Text WSAECONNREFUSED: Connection refused

Counter 1

It apparently doesn't matter whether the central instance is running or not. What puzzles me is what could have changed between last week and this during several reboots.

Hi Karl,

is 10.10.0.10 a static IP Address or do you get this IP from a DHCP Server? Perhaps the IP has changed? Have you tried to work with the Microsoft Loopback Adapter?

I installed the loopback adapter AFTER the problem began in the hopes that perhaps an IP mismatch is the source of this problem. I'm beginning to suspect that the difficulty is that it got instantiated under one IP that because of DHCP assignment is no longer available. I've been trying to determine, by searching through trace files and looking for ini files, for that mysterious IP addr.

Hello Karl,

is your Server running on the same machine as your Client? You can try to connect to localhost?

Sorry, was out for a week. Where do I specify where to make the connection? I'm guessing that the server is not seeing the network address it was configured with somehow. Is there a way to verify/change this perameter? If not I'm thinking perhaps I should uninstall/reinstall and take care to do it when I'm not connected to the network.
