NPE in SAPGUI 7.40 on MAC

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am getting below error while opening the sap logon pad on mac. I have uninstalled/reinstall SAP GUI & java many times but still getting the same error.

Hello Vishal,

It looks like you are running the very first SAP GUI for Java 7.40 version. You might want to update to the latest one before further analysing the issue.

In case the new version does not solve the issue, please open a support message on component BC-FES-JAV. We will then ask for some files of your configuration.

Best regards

Rolf-Martin
