The instructions for the installation of SAP JCo on other operating systems are included in the corresponding download files.

  1. On UNIX operating systems, add the OS specific shared lib files to the library path.

  2. Check the SAP BAPI Adapter readme to confirm the supported operating systems.

  3. Copy the JCo JAR file to the following location before deploying and running command line code generation.


     \compile\lib\ext

  4. Copy the JCo JAR file to the c:\Sun\ApplicationServer\lib folder before deploying and running via the Sun Java™ System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.1.

  5. Copy the JCo JAR file to the following location before deploying and running via the WebLogic Application Server, version 9.1.

    Note –

    The SAP Java Connector file, JCo version 2.1.6 is not backwards compatible with previous versions, such as 2.1.3. Confirm backwards compatibility issues with SAP before attempting to switch between different JCo versions on different machines.

    Note –

    SAP BAPI Adapters can run on a 64-bit JVM, but only after the correct 64-bit JCo files (version 2.1.3 or later) have been applied.

    Note –

    The SAP application must be configured to communicate with the SAP BAPI Adapter as described in Configuring SAP in the SAP BAPI Adapter Intelligent Adapter User’s Guide.

    Note –

    We recommend only using the directory path when setting your library path, not the directory path and file name.

    Note –

    JCo 2.1.6 does not support mixed case, users may need to convert passwords to upper case for all design time and runtime SAP connection configurations.
