This blog will guide you how to install SAP
Hana Client, Java and Tomcat in Linux server (Oracle/RedHat).
Install Hana Client
Step 1:
First check the version of Linux
server where you want to install Hana Client.
Type following command
# uname –a
You should see output like
following
Linux {your server} 2.6.32-131.0.15.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri
May 20 15:04:03 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The Linux kernel version should be same
or greater than 2.6.32 in order to support Hana Client
Step 2:
Download Hana Client either 32 bit
or 64 bit depends on your Linux server
Create a directory name ‘sap in ‘usr’,
you can choose your favorite name and favorite location. E.g. you can create ‘sap’
directory in /opt directory path.
#mkdir sap
There is couple of options to
download the client. You can directly download the client into Linux server
using wget command but it would be tricky using command line since you have to
bypass the SAP agreement. The easiest option is to download the client into Windows
machine and connect to Linux server by putty.exe and copy the files from Windows machine to Linux machine by pscp.exe
For example open windows command
prompt and type following to copy Hana client from Windows to Linux:
pscp.exe sap_hana_client_linux64.gz
root@{linux server IP}:/usr/sap
Step 3:
Go to
the path where you copied the Hana Client and extract the tar file
Example:
#tar xzvf sap_hana_client_linux64.tgz
After extracting the file, navigate to SAP_HANA_CLIENT_LINUX64
directory
Run below command
Run below command
# ./hdbinst –a client
You will see following message if the
installation was successful

Install Java and Tomcat
Step 1: Create a
directory name ‘java in ‘usr’
#mkdir java
Step 2: Download JDK, JRE
and Tomcat into the ‘java’ directory
You
should get latest version of JDK and JRE from here
Download as per server OS version. Again
you can directly download the tar file into Linux.
For example:
Or if you are connected Linux
through Windows then you can use pscp.exe to copy from Windows to Linux server
Example:
pscp.exe
apache-tomcat-7.0.41.tar.gz root@{linux server IP}:/usr/java
Do the
same step for copying JDK and JRE tar file
Step 3:
Extract Tomcat, JDK and JRE tar files
Example:
#tar xzvf /usr/java/apache-tomcat-7.0.41.tar.gz
#tar xzvf /usr/java/jdk-7u25-linux-x64.gz
#tar xzvf /usr/java/jre-7u25-linux-x64.gz
Step 4: Set JAVA_HOME, PATH, CATALINA_HOME,
CATALINA_BASE
Example:
#export
JAVA_HOME = /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_25/
#export
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
#export
CATALINA_HOME= /usr/java/apache-tomcat-7.0.39
#export
CATALINA_BASE= /usr/java/apache-tomcat-7.0.39
Step 5:
Start Tomcat
Example:
#
/usr/java/apache-tomcat-7.0.39/bin/startup.sh
If Tomcat started up successfully,
you can open up Tomcat home page by typing below URL in browser
http://localhost:8080 Or http//YourServerIP:8080
(if you want to access from remote)
In
order to access Manager App do following:
Navigate
to apache tomcat conf directory
#
cd /usr/java/apache-tomcat-7.0.39/conf
#vi
tomcat-users.xml
Insert
below nodes
<role
rolename="manager-gui"/>
<user
username="tomcat" password="tomcat"
roles="manager-gui"/>
Save
and Exit
Esc
=> #ZZ
After saving the file open http://YourServerIP:8080 and click ‘Manager
App’. Enter userId: ‘tomcat’ and password: ‘tomcat’ once it prompts. You should
see all the applications listed.
Step 6: Deploy WAR file
At this stage you are done with the set up and you can deploy Service which talks to Hana DB. You have to just copy the WAR file to /usr/java/apache-tomcat-7.0.39/webapps and start
the App from http://yourserverIP:8080/manager/html.
