Introduction

The openSUSE Leap 15.1 Vagrant box can be used to create a VirtualBox instance with Vagrant to install SAP NW AS ABAP 752 SP04 Developer Edition .

All recommended system preparations are done by packer and vagrant, as described at Installing ABAP AS on Oracle VirtualBox.

The pre-built Vagrant Box is now avaiable on HashiCorps Vagrant Cloud:

https://app.vagrantup.com/wechris

The Packer calls are no longer necessary. If you want to create your own Vagrant Box with Packer see the optional section below.

The Vagrantfile makes the following settings automatically:

  • uuidd.sh => installes and starts the UUIDD service
  • changetogerman.sh => changes the keyboard layout to german
  • gnome.sh => installes the Gnome Desktop, FireFox, VSCode, Chromium, Gnome-Terminal, GVim, Libreoffice, Nautilus Explorer, YAST2 and JAVA SAP Machine 11 + OpenJFX (to get ready to install SAPGUI JAVA)
  • sapinst.sh (+install_nw_expect) => installes the SAP NW AS ABAP 7.52 SP04 – Developer Edition is the installation files are avaiable in the ./sapint folder
  • autostart.sh => appends the appends the "Autostart = 1" to the DEFAULT.PFL profile file.

Prerequisites
