Installing in GUI Mode

Install SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server in GUI mode.

1. Insert the SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server CD in the CD drive. To install both products, repeat this procedure using the appropriate CD, after you install the first product.
   The installer should start automatically. If it does not, select Start > Run, and enter the following, where x: is your CD drive:

   x:\setup.exe

   If the installer does not have sufficient temporary space to run, set the environment variable TMP to directory_name before running it again, where directory_name is the name of the temporary directory to which the installation program writes the temporary installation files.

   Note: When specifying the directory_name, include its full path.
2. In the Introduction window, click Next to proceed with the installation.
3. Read the License and Copyright Agreement. Select the geographic location from where you are installing to display the agreement appropriate to your region. Select "I agree to the terms of the End User License Agreement for the install location specified." and click Next.

   You must agree to the license and copyright agreement before you can continue.

4. In the Choose Install Folder window, click Next to accept the default directory for the installation, or click Choose to browse through the directory and select a location for the installation. One of these occurs:

   • If the installation directory you chose does not exist, the installer prompts:

     The directory <directory_name> does not exist. Do you want to create it?

     Click Yes.

   • If the installation directory exists, the installer prompts:

     Warning: You have chosen to install into an
     existing directory. If you proceed with this
     installation, any older versions of the products
     you choose to install that are detected in this
     directory will be replaced.

     If you continue and the older products were not installed with SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server installer (for example, if you installed a version of SAP Adaptive Server earlier than 16.0), the installer overwrites the common files.

     If you are prompted to overwrite any files, click Yes only if the version of the new file is later than the one the installer is attempting to overwrite.

5. Select the type of installation:

   • Typical (default) – installs the SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server components considered to be useful for most customers. In this type of installation, only the U.S. English language module and its supported character sets are installed.

     The components to be installed and the total disk space required appear before the installation executes. See SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server Components.

   • Full – installs every SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server component, including all the supported language modules from the CD.

     The components to be installed and the total disk space required appear before the installation executes. For a list of language modules you can install, see SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server Components.

   • Custom – allows you to select the components or product features for SDK for SAP ASE or SAP Open Server to install. The next window that appears allows you to select the components to install.

     Note: Some components are automatically installed if they are required to run other selected components.

   After you have selected the installation type, click Next.

   The Pre-Installation Summary window displays the product features or components to be installed and the total disk space required for all the selected features.

6. Verify that you have selected the correct installation type, and that you have enough disk space to complete the process. Click Install.

   If you do not have sufficient available hard disk space for the components you are installing, you see an error that stops the installation.

   The installation program unloads all the components from the CD and displays a progress indicator.
