SAP Netweaver inactive hardware key.

[ToniLug]

I have just started studying the world of sap and abap and i installed successfully the Sap netweaver 7.52 sp04. But now when i try to create something with eclipse, it ask to me the access key. I searched a bit on the sap portal, and the guide said to change the license, so i could create everything on eclipse without worrying about the access key. Well it didn't work either. My license says it's not active. If i try to log with a different user (Instead of SAP* that is the only one i can use on sap logon) it says "failed license check". How can i develop without having an S-User account? From the sap dev community i understood it could be used without having a S-User, so i'm really confused about it. Could you help me?

-The guide to change the license i used is: https://blogs.sap.com/2019/10/01/as-abap-7.52-sp04-developer-edition-concise-installation-guide/

-The license i downloaded: https://go.support.sap.com/minisap/#/minisap ( NPL - SAP NetWeaver 7.x (Sybase ASE ) )

You could only develop with developer or bwdeveloper users.

Maybe your license key is not the good one, or you have set a wrong hardware key.

check sap note 2857461 - Transaction Slicense - Note on Validity displays Valid (inactive hardware key)

"The note 'Valid (inactive hardware key)' is displayed in case there is valid license key installed for a different hardware key as displayed under 'Current Settings'."just check your acutal license key on os level with "saplicense -get"BR
