Put sapjcorfc.dll in some folder (c:/saplibs for inst) and add java launch parameter like:

-Djava.library.path=c:/saplibs

or, if u use unix-like OS instead of .dll file you should use libsapjcorfc.so

I discovered a way to fix this error:

load middleware layer 'com.sap.mw.jco.rfc.MiddlewareRFC'

JCO.nativeInit(): Could not initialize dynamic link library sapjcorfc

[/opt/sapjco/libsapjcorfc.so: load ENOEXEC on shared library

Answer: First, make sure you've downloaded the proper version of sapjco for your system including 32 or 64-bit. Also, make sure you copy lib files to right directory that get extracted with the sapjco file.

For example on AIX: cp librfccm.o libsapjcorfc.o libsapjcorfc.so /usr/java14_64/jre/bin/

make sure permissions/owner/group are okay.

Hi this error most likely occurs in following scenario

when you have different versions of sapjcorfc.dll and sapjco.jar installed. everytime the JCO connector is upgraded to a new version, you need to ensure that all three libraries are updated (librfc32.dll, sapjcorfc.dll, and sapjco.jar). This error will occur if any one of them is still in older version.

To resolve this try out extracting sapjcorfc.dll and sapjco.jar from the original JCO jar file. Copy these files to the appropriate locations, overwriting the originally installed versions( Mostly the in the Sysem32 folder of your windows). Ensure that the PATH statement is updated to reflect the directory location of the DLL files and the Java CLASSPATH points to sapjco.jar.

Hope this resolves your issue. Please dont forget to award points if this helps you.
