(Note that you only need this JDK for installing – the SAPGUI client contains its own “internal” JVM that it runs on itself). To run the jar file which then installs the SAPGUI client on your MacBook, you will need a suitable Java SDK (a.k.a. Note that as of June 2022, the DMG available for P-users only installs on Intel-based MacBooks and does not work for M1 MacBooks so, the DMG approach is only for those who either (a) have an Intel-based MacBook, or (b) have an M1 MacBook and can get hold of a working DMG via an S-user. So, if you intend to install using the DMG, then you can ignore all the advice below about manually getting hold of SapMachine JVM and configuring JAVA_HOME and so on. Windows platform: PlatinGUI-Windows-Installation-.exe”.macOS platform: PlatinGUI-MacOSX-Installation.Linux platform: PlatinGUI-Linux-Installation.Depending on your platform, the following files are applicable: “The platform-dependent installation programs use the inbuilt SapMachine during the installation, thus no installed Java Virtual Machine is required.
Installing the SAPGUI for Java for MacBook softwareįirst of all, we should note that nowadays it’s not actually required to have an existing JVM nor to install any JVM, in the case where you will install SAPGUI for Java via the DMG package… as SAP put it:
If you need SAP Secure Login Client, we show how an S-user can get hold of the installation media for that (this particular software might not be available to P-users, but then again SSO tends to be found more in organisations than in the SAP POC world of SAP Community developers). We will show how S-users and P-users can get hold of the relevant media (also we show how anyone can get an SAP Community P-user).
SAP NetWeaver Developer Edition, has a different installation procedure (requires separate OpenJFX 11 library), and anyway the version 7.50 is well out of date at time of writing, March 2022). You will want to get hold of the installation media of SAPGUI for Java version 7.70 or later (the freeware version 7.50 from e.g. This blog assumes you have local admin rights to your MacBook (though everything might work out without admin rights, I haven’t tested that) the ability to use Terminal for basic commands is needed for the JAR method of installing, and useful for modifying files in the main config folder (though you could use Finder instead for that). These notes might help people with the eponymous task they are not as wide-ranging and thorough as the official instructions and guides from SAP, instead these are just some remarks based on author’s recent experience, which might be helpful 👌 (or might not 😱 ).
