SAP GUI 7.50 Installation on macOS

SAP GUI for Java is a graphical user interface that allows you to access SAP systems from your Mac computer. It supports various features such as multiple languages, themes, connections, and security options. However, installing SAP GUI for Java on macOS can be a bit tricky, especially since Oracle changed its Java licensing model in 2019. In this article, we will guide you through the steps to install SAP GUI 7.50 for Java on macOS, using the latest versions of SapMachine and JavaFX as of September 2023.

SAP GUI 7.50 Installation on macOS


Download Zip https://shoxet.com/2ySrII



Prerequisites

Before you start the installation process, you need to have the following items ready:

    • A Mac computer running macOS Mojave 10.14.3 or later.
    • Local administrator rights to your Mac computer.
    • A valid S-user or P-user ID to download the SAP GUI installation file from the SAP Service Marketplace or the SAP Store.
    • An internet connection to download the required software components.

    Step 1: Install SapMachine

    SapMachine is an open-source Java virtual machine that is maintained and supported by SAP. It is compatible with the standard Java SE specification and can run SAP GUI for Java without any issues. To install SapMachine on your Mac computer, follow these steps:

      • Go to the SapMachine website and scroll down to the download section.
      • Select SapMachine11 from the first dropdown menu, macOS x64 from the second dropdown menu, and leave the third dropdown menu as default.
      • Click on the Download button and save the file to your Downloads folder (or any other folder of your choice).
      • Open Finder and go to the folder where you downloaded the file. Double-click on the file to extract it. You should see a folder named sapmachine.
      • Open a new Finder window and select Go > Go to Folder from the menu bar. A search window should appear.
      • Type Library and click on Go. Navigate to the folder named Java and double-click on it. If it does not exist, you can create it by right-clicking in the Finder window and selecting New Folder.
      • Double-click on the JavaVirtualMachines folder. If it does not exist, you can create it by following the previous step.
      • Drag the sapmachine folder from your Downloads folder to the JavaVirtualMachines folder. You will be prompted for administrator credentials. Enter them and click on Authenticate.
      • Open Terminal by clicking on the Spotlight icon (the magnifying glass) in the top-right corner of the screen and typing terminal.
      • Type java -version and press Enter. You should see a response similar to this:

      $ java -version sapmachine 11.0.12 2023-07-20 SapMachine Runtime Environment (build 11.0.12+7-sapmachine) SapMachine Server VM (build 11.0.12+7-sapmachine, mixed mode)

      If you see a reference to sapmachine in the last two lines, it means that SapMachine was installed correctly.

      Step 2: Install JavaFX SDK

      JavaFX is a software platform that provides graphical user interface components for Java applications. It is required by SAP GUI for Java to display its graphical elements properly. To install JavaFX SDK on your Mac computer, follow these steps:

        • Go to the JavaFX SDK website and download the file javafx-sdk-11-mac.zip to your Downloads folder (or any other folder of your choice).
        • The file will be extracted automatically to a folder named javafx-sdk-11 in your Downloads folder.
        • Drag the javafx-sdk-11 folder from your Downloads folder to the JavaVirtualMachines folder in your Library folder, as you did in step 8 of the previous section.
        • You will be prompted for administrator credentials again. Enter them and click on Authenticate.

        Step 3: Install SAP GUI for Java

        SAP GUI for Java is a JAR file that contains all the necessary files and libraries to run SAP GUI on your Mac computer. To install SAP GUI for Java on your Mac computer, follow these steps:

          • Download the SAP GUI installation file PlatinGUI750_#-MacOSX.jar from the SAP Service Marketplace (if you have an S-user ID) or the SAP Store (if you have a P-user ID). The # symbol represents the revision number, which may vary depending on the latest version available.
          • You may see a warning message saying that the file may harm your computer. Click on Keep to continue the download.
          • Open Finder and go to the folder where you downloaded the file. Double-click on the file to run it.
          • You will see a window asking you to choose a Java runtime environment. Select SapMachine 11 from the list and click on OK.
          • You will see another window asking you to choose a JavaFX runtime environment. Select javafx-sdk-11 from the list and click on OK.
          • You will see a welcome screen for the SAP GUI installation wizard. Click on Next to continue.
          • You will see a license agreement screen. Read the terms and conditions and select I accept the agreement if you agree. Click on Next to continue.
          • You will see a screen asking you to choose an installation folder. You can leave it as default or change it to any other folder of your choice. Click on Next to continue.
          • You will see a screen asking you to choose a start menu folder. You can leave it as default or change it to any other folder of your choice. Click on Next to continue.
          • You will see a screen asking you to select additional tasks. You can check or uncheck any of the options as per your preference. Click on Next to continue.
          • You will see a screen showing you the summary of your installation choices. Click on Install to start the installation process.
          • You will see a progress bar showing you the status of the installation process. Wait until it is completed.
          • You will see a screen confirming that the installation was successful. Click on Finish to exit the wizard.

          Step 4: Configure SAP GUI for Java

          After installing SAP GUI for Java, you need to configure it to connect to your SAP systems. To configure SAP GUI for Java, follow these steps:

            • Open SAP GUI for Java by clicking on its icon in your Applications folder or Launchpad.
            • You will see a window showing you an empty list of connections. Click on the New button to create a new connection.
            • You will see a window asking you to enter the connection details. Enter the following information:
