    SAPGUI 7.30 Installation

    STUDENT INSTALLATION DOCUMENT

    Purpose: Installation of SAPGUI for use with the UW-Milwaukee UCC hosting center. The installer

    file SAPGUI_INST_730.EXE will install the latest version of SAPGUI (including BEX tools,

    KW tools, ECL, and relevant patches) and our saplogon.ini file (needed for access to our

    servers).

    Supported Platforms:

    - Windows XP Professional 32bit - restricted support - Windows XP Professional 64bit - restricted support - Windows Vista 32bit (only "Business", "Ultimate" and "Enterprise" editions) -

    restricted support - Windows Vista 64bit (only "Business", "Ultimate" and "Enterprise" editions) -

    restricted support - Windows 7 32bit (only "Professional", "Ultimate" and "Enterprise" editions) - Windows 7 64bit (only "Professional", "Ultimate" and "Enterprise" editions) - Windows 8 32bit (only "Professional", "Ultimate" and "Enterprise" editions) -

    supported as of patch level 1 - Windows 8 64bit (only "Professional", "Ultimate" and "Enterprise" editions) -

    supported as of patch level 1

    Preparation: It is no longer required that previous versions of the SAPGUI be uninstalled; however,

    not removing the prior locally stored .ini files will allow them to also populate your

    sapgui server list. It is suggested that you remove or back up previous versions of the

    saplogon.ini file. On Windows XP, this file can be found in C:\windows or C:\documents

    and settings\[your user name]\application data\SAP\common or C:\Windows, though

    I suggest using the same method used on vista and windows 7 to be sure. On Vista and

    Windows 7 operating systems, you need to search for and delete all copies of this file,

    hidden files and folders need to be enabled in the control panel (start -> control panel ->

    appearance and personalization -> Folder Options in view tab and radio button show

    hidden files and folders). Then search your computer for the file saplogon.ini and

    remove or back them up before installing.

    Procedure: You should have already obtained the SAPGUI installer from your instructor. If you have

    not already done so, please contact the instructor of your course to discuss how you can

    obtain this file. Once you have the installer program, execute it by right clicking the icon

    pictured below and choose the option Run as Administrator:

    This will bring up SAPs extraction notification, which depending on your machine can

    run for a few minutes.

    Once the extraction is complete, you will be presented with the following window.

    Your computer should now be installing SAPGUI. You will see the progress bar move along as the

    installation progresses:

    After a few minutes, the installer will complete. Please press the Done button

    At that time, the window below will perform some clean up functions and your install

    should be complete.

    Confirmation: Although it is not required, you should REBOOT your computer at this time. This allows

    any pending registry entries to finalize and the temp files to clear out. You should then

    have two new menu items in your Start Menu -> Programs area. Business Explorer and

    SAP Front End.

    To make sure our front end installed correctly, please open the program SAP Logon

    from Start Menu -> Programs -> SAP Front End. You should see the screen below:

    If you are unable to get to this point, please contact your instructor for further support.

    If you need to keep your current saplogon.ini file for other servers, make sure to back up your local

    saplogon.ini file before installation when you open sapgui after installation you should see all of our

    centrally managed entries at the top in grey and your local entries at the bottom in black.
