Entering License Information

Start the SAP Mobile SDK installer and enter license information.

  1. Start the SAP Mobile SDK installer using one of these methods:
    • Insert the SAP Mobile SDK installation media.
    • Install from a Web download. Extract all the archive files to the same temporary directory on a local disk, not a shared drive.
      Note: Use a short path, preferably a folder directly below the root directory, such as C:\temp. The path can include only ASCII alphanumeric characters, underscore ( _ ), hyphen ( - ), and period (.) (two consecutive period characters are not allowed).
    • Install from an image on the network. You must access the installation image from a mapped drive, not a UNC path.
    Browse to the location of the setup.exe file, and:
    • On Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, right-click the setup.exe file and select Run as Administrator.
    • On earlier supported versions of Windows, double-click the setup.exe file.
    Note: The installer displays an "Initializing wizard..." message while it verifies the integrity of the installation image. It may take a few minutes for the first installer panel to display.
  2. On the installer welcome page, click Next.
  3. If you are installing on a system that does not have a licensed SAP Mobile Platform installation, select your license model and click Next.
