2008 file location update
Hi as is to be expected the location mentioned in fedemw's post is out of date - SAP have moved the /sapgui-java shortcut onto sdn.sap.com
currently the sapgui java for linux is located here: http://sdn.sap.com - Advanced Search (filter on Downloads) "sapgui java" it is now bundled with the Web Dynpro Client for Java, and there is a 90 day license (I believe this is renewable after the 90 days are up) the anonymous ftp link still works brilliantly though Thanks for the great tip, really useful.

Possible to get a little more help for a newbie???
Hello
I really like what I see with Linux so far, having tried a number of 'easy' distributions such as Kubuntu and Fedora. I would like to install SAP GUI and know how to do installations in general, in the instance when the programs I wish to install are not included in the 'Add / Remove Software'. In the instructions provided, Ark opens and presents me with a list of jar files (and some others, for example a file which appears to declare the classes used). Can someone please help? Best wishes for Christmas Rodney |

I think this may be the way you are accessing the ftp site. You need to use an ftp program of some sort, there are gui programs available, but it can also be done very simply from the command line with the program 'ftp': Code:
>sudo ftp Follow the instructions in fedemw 's point 1 - I have used it today it is still a valid page. Follow the "Installation of Self-Extracting Binary" or the "Installation of RPM" instruction depending on your distribution. For ubuntu there is however a Synaptic package available - sun-java5-jre. I installed that and the SAPGUI for Java is working fine with it. to check what version you have installed use >java -version SAP Note 959236 is the list of supported os's and java versions, but I can verify that sapgui for java version 710r9 does work on Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Note 959236 - Supported Java frontend platforms for 7.10 / 7.11 / 7.01 Follow the rest of fedemw's tutorial and you should be fine. |
