I suggest you do local installation. Copy all the installation media files into local drive.

Run sapinst as <sid>adm

Hi Altaf,

Check the permissions and owner/group for the below.

/sapmnt/<SID>

Hi,

System call failed. Error 13 (Permission denied) in execution of system call 'mkdir' with parameter (/sapmnt/<SID>/exe/.created_by_SAPinst

SAPinst is unable to create a directory exe under /sapmnt/<SID>

Could you run the following commands

chmod -R 777 /sapmnt/<SID>

chown -R <sidadm>:sapsys /sapmnt/<SID>

Retry after these changes.
