SAP GUI 7.10 installation on the Linux Issue - Ishan

183 Views

Hi Gurus,

I have following scenario

> sun java j2sdk 1.4.2_09 is installed

> output of the command : uname -a on RHLinux

Red Hat Linux : Linux <Host >2.6.9-34.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Feb 24 16:54:53 EST 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

--This, as per my understading of Linux suggests that installed Linux is of the version 2.6.9-34

OR by any chance, this suggests the installed Linux Kernel Version and NOT the Linux version - any idea ?

-- Cause, the command cat /etc/release gives the output : Red Hat Linux AS release 4

...So, this is first confusion point.

> Now, the interesting part is : as per note 959236 - Supported Java Front End Platforms for SAP GUI 7.10,

- I don't see Red Hat Linux 2.6 as the supported OS -just incase that is what uname -a output suggests..

> We want to install the SAP GUI 710 on this 32 bit RHLinux which already has prev version of sapgui

( The reason is : BI 7 BEx Web Analyzer won't run with this old SAP Gui )

> We have downloaded sapgui 710 for 32 bit linux i.e. the file PlatinGUILNX-1-10003510.JAR

> The command java -jar PlatinGUILNX-1-10003510.JAR has no output

Warning: -jar not understood. Ignoring.

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: PlatinGUILNX_1-10003510.JAR

at gnu.gcj.runtime.FirstThread.run() (/usr/lib/libgcj.so.5.0.0)

at JvThreadRun(java.lang.Thread) (/usr/lib/libgcj.so.5.0.0)

at JvRunMain(java.lang.Class, byte const, int, byte const, boolean) (/usr/lib/libgcj.so.5.0.0)

at __gcj_personality_v0 (/gui710/java.version=1.4.2)

at __libc_start_main (/lib/tls/libc-2.3.4.so)

at JvRegisterClasses (/gui710/java.version=1.4.2

> so, the Second issue is :

a. How to uninstall the existing SAP GUI

b. How to unpack the .JAR file ..I tried java -jar -reinstall < file name > ...but, this is not working either

c. How to solve the above No Class Def Found Error..

Any / All help is most welcome and would be rewarded with matching points.

Thanks in Advance,

- Ishan
