I cannot figure out how to download a trial version of Replication Server. Is it no longer available?
Thanks,
Bret
update (29 Nov 2021):
Finally got a response to the Improvement Request: reinstate download link for trial version of Replciation Server
As with the ASE Express Edition it appears SAP has quietly killed the publicly available trial version of the Replication Server product, too.
If anyone opts to use the 'Contact Us' link, let us know if you (ever) get a response eh.
-----------------------------
original answer (18 Nov 2021):
I'm assuming you've tried the SAP Replication Server Trial page and found there's no actual link on the page for obtaining a download.
That page has been 'broken' for a couple months now.
I've repeatedly used the 'Contact Us' link to notify SAP of the issue but ... crickets. emails go unanswered and when I can catch someone on the chat channel they state they'll look into it but ... nothing, so far, has ever happened re: fixing the page.
Seeing how SAP recently, and quietly, discontinued the (free) Express Edition version of ASE, I wouldn't be surprised if they've now decided to (quietly) discontinue providing a trial version of Repserver.
Maybe someone in-the-know @ SAP will surprise us and get the download link re-instated for the trial version of Repserver ...
---------------------
FWIW, I hobbled together an Influence request to reinstate the download lnk on the Repserver trial software page ... in case anyone wants to vote on the topic ...

Trial versions of SAP Replication Server can be obtained by directly downloading the software from the SAP Software Download Center at https://support.sap.com/swdc or by contacting your SAP Sales Account Executive.
The software will activate as a trial when no license is available at installation.

Chris Baker,
The link you've provided appears to be for people with support contracts (eg, S-user accounts).
Care to provide more details on how someone without a support contract (eg, a P-user account) can download the trial version of Replication Server?
P-user access was possible at SAP Replication Server Trial for a little over 4 years ... well ... up until a couple months ago when the actual clickable/download link was removed from said page.
So, getting back to the original question ... how does someone (without a support contract) go about downloading the trial version of Replication Server, especially when the publicly available 'trial' page has no clickable/download link?
