I’m getting this question very often
therefore I want to summarize possibilities how to obtain miniSAP software
wither to download it from internet or to buy SAP book with some CDs/DVDs
included.
1.
Download it
Main source of miniSAP is SDN. Navigate to Download section and
choose SAP

2007 March 2013):

*- Version of miniSAP for LINUX was formerly
called Technology TestDrive for
mySAP.com on Linux. All LINUX releases of miniSAP can be found here.
See also area of SDN dedicated
to LINUX.
Other source of miniSAP only on LINUX (NS4) might
be official SAP’s ftp server: ftp://ftp.sap.com.
It is possible to download all SAP software which is available on SDN plus SAP GUI and its patches, SAP/MAX
DB, LINUX lab stuff etc. Use user anonymous@ftp.sap.com
to connect this ftp server. This is also not valid anymore. As of 1st of
April 2012 all LINUX test drives were removed from FTP as well as SAP GUI
downloads. For LINUX misaSAP version proceed via SAP Shop (see below point no.
3): http://www.sap.com/shop -> SAP
Knowledge Shop and search for the following material numbers:
* SAP
NW2004s Testdrive MaxDB: 50077574
* SAP
NW04s Testdrive Linux DB2 x86: 50083014
More versions like WAS 6.10, 6.20, 6.30, 6.40
were available on SDN before. At the moment they are not available and it is
just a history.
You can find some versions of official’s SAP
trial software on peer-to-peer networks (torrents, etc.). There are also
available commercial full versions of SAP software but I strongly recommend to
do not download it. On one hand you will break software license and on other
hand you will barely be able to install it and customize it for using. Please
be careful.
2. Do
get it with a book
First book which was issued with miniSAP was ABAP
objects. I bought this book in 2001 as its first edition. At that time it
was miniSAP 4.6D included with this book. Meanwhile this is a second edition
which is available with mini SAP NetWeaver 7.1 Version. I assume this is same
version which can be downloaded from SDN as SAP
NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) - ABAP Trial Version – for WINDOWS platform. More
information about this book can be found here.
Another book is The
Official ABAP Reference. Here is SAP Web AS 6.20 test version
included. Find more information here.
For JAVA based developments
on SAP NetWeaver you can use book Developing
Accessible Applications with SAP NetWeaver. It is not clear to me which
version is included in here. I assume it is SAP
NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) - Java Trial Version plus some NetWeaver Developer
Studio based on Eclipse.
For some information how to install miniSAP:
SAP NetWeaver 2004s ABAP Trial Version; see my previous post here.
3. Order it via SAP
Shop
Ordering
of DVD with miniSAP installation media has been discontinued over the years.
SAP
AG is running its own online shops long time ago. Currently there are available
three types of shops.
SAP Merchandise Shop specializes in a variety of gifts for
business and leisure. Second one SAP Knowledge Shop for Customers and Partners offers
knowledge products, publications, documentation CDs for SAP customers and
partners; requires an SAP Service Marketplace (S-user) ID. The third one SAP Knowledge Shop has knowledge products, including online
documentations, books, Delta study guides, and e-learning offerings for
everybody.
You
can use its Download section to download CD Mini Web AS 6.20 ABAP Engine (3) for 29,80 EUR and CD Mini SAP Web Application Server 6.10 for same price.
Before SDN this shop played significant role in miniSAP software distribution
nowadays importance of it is decreasing.
Closing
remarks:
I’ll dedicate some more posts of my blog in future to miniSAP. Meanwhile if

Man you're the greatest. I searched everywhere for the miniSAP and now i finaly found it. I'm a key looser (joke) in the company I work for and i sure want to learn more about SAP and this option seems pretty good. Once again thanks.
Hello,
I read your blog for a while and found a lot of interesting information so thank you first !
2 years ago I built a minisap server under linux with N4S test drive x86_64 with both abap and java stacks and it worked fine.
I have to build such a server now but I don't have my N4S iso anymore, and the 7 parts of the file are no more available for download at SDN.
I though you could have this iso, if true could it be possible for you to send it to me ? I could give you ftp server with private access to do that.
I hope you could do it, thank you by advance, I really need it to do a BW project for the university.
You can contact me by mail yoshee at meta-lan dot net.
SI4 testdrive is here :
ftp://ftp.sap.com/pub/sdn/devkits/netweaver/linux/
You can concatenate the parts with:
'cat SI4_TestDrive.iso_Part_a* > SI4_TestDrive.iso'
Hope this helps!
can u explain how to install this software?
Hi, regarding miniSAP installation see following blogs:
http://sapport.blogspot.com/2007/01/sap-netweaver-2004s-abap-minisap.html

Hi,
Can this miniSAP used for BASIS practices..??
Hi Anonymous,
that's exactly the purpose of miniSAP, to get hands on Basis and ABAP of SAP's NetWeaver system!
cheers,
sapper
Can I use the trial versions to test integration of SAP with external applications? Does it support external RFC connections that can be used to send/receive Idocs and call SAP functions from external apps?
Thanks for the update. I just wish I could get a download to complete :)
Hi Anonymous,
yes, you can practice RFC-ing as RFC connections are supported in miniSAP. TA SM59 is available.
Hope you succeeded with downloading of miniSAP :-)
cheers, sapper
Hi,
are there core components like MM and SD, so i can practice on the tables and standard transactions ?
Best Regards
Hi,
Unfortunately there are no application modules like SD or MM available in miniSAP. The only possibility is to practice ABAP programming language and some Basis (SAP administration) stuff.
Cheer,
sapper
Hi,
Can i install SI4_TestDrive into Vmware for study.
cheers,
sapper
Hi sapper,
I do not have experience with SI4_TestDrive on Vmware other even oldier version of miniSAP on Oracle VirtualBox. Therefore I tend to think that SI4 should also run in VM.
regards,
sapper
Hi!
Thank you for having an updated blog because I was searching for an valid link for hours!
Also, I sent directly a message on the SAP website and they have provided me with an 48h available link to download minisap!
So if you need it you just have to ask for it on the SAP website!
