Hello experts
Following the tutorial below I was able to install an ABAP AS (SAP NetWeaver 7.5 SPS2 ASE) on Virtualbox few weeks ago:
Linux for Newbies: Installing ABAP AS on Oracle VirtualBox
Later on I was forced to reinstall the ABAP AS again due some data corruption issues. But this time I got the following error during the installation despite following the howto in the same way as before:

Especially the message "There is no valid license for ASE server product. Installation date is not found or installation grace period has expired. Server will not boot." seems a little odd. Does it mean that the DB server packaged with the ABAP AS is invalid due to time constraints?
I've also tried the installation in a newly created Virtualbox instance and also extracted the installation package again into a folder shared read-only within the Virtualbox VM.
Does anybody know a way to fix this issues?
Thank you all very much in advance for your replay!
Could you please share the solutions? I am also facing the same issue.
