Guidelines for Installing SDK for SAP ASE with Other SAP Products

Guidelines for installing SDK for SAP ASE on the same machine with other SAP products.

  • On Microsoft Windows, installing SDK for SAP ASE 16.0 on the same machine as Adaptive Server 15.0.x could cause SAP Adaptive Server to fail to start. To configure this, either upgrade SAP Adaptive Server to 16.0, or follow the directions in the SDK for SAP ASE and SAP Open Server Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows.

  • On Microsoft Windows, use .bat files to ensure that each product is started using the correct SDK for SAP ASE version and environment variables.

  • SAP recommends that you do not mix versions of SDK for SAP ASE and SAP Open Server in the same directory. For example, do not install SDK for SAP ASE 16.0 in a directory containing Open Server 15.5—in this case, upgrade both SDK for SAP ASE and SAP Open Server to 16.0.
