Summary :
The SAP Note advises against installing SAP NetWeaver '04 SR1 (Web AS 6.40 SR1) on Windows Server 2008 or R2 due to compatibility issues with SAPinst, which leads to critical errors during the installation process. To mitigate this, users are instructed to replace the SAPinst executable with an updated version from the SAP Service Marketplace prior to installation. The update process involves downloading the SAPinst 640 executable, copying the Installation Master content to a local drive, replacing the old executable with the downloaded version, and turning off User Account Control before the installation. Post-installation, users must reactivate UAC and proceed with system upgrades or copies.
