Missing OS patches during installation of SAP BI 4.X on RHEL 7.9

As a part of the on-prem to Cloud migration of SAP BI 4.X I faced lots of issues with the missing OS patches during the installation of BI 4.2 SP5, even after following the standard guide I wasn’t able to remediate all the patches. I am summarising the steps I took to resolve the issue which might be of help if someone else is trying the same combination

  • Environment:

OS – RHEL 7.9

App – SAP BI 4.2 SP05

  • Issue

The installer failed to start:

Installer%20fails

Installer fails

Followed the steps mentioned in the following article: https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_BUSINESSOBJECTS_BUSINESS_INTELLIGENCE_PLATFORM/65018c09dbe04052b082e6fc4ab60030/46b12d676e041014910aba7db0e91070-36.html

The installer moved ahead but again failed in the prerequisite phase

Resolution:

  • After this set the below environment variables:

export LANG=en_US.utf8
export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8

  • Restart the installer

The prerequisite phase passed without any error related to any missing patch

Installer%20passed%20the%20prerequisite%20checks

The installer passed the prerequisite checks

After giving all the valid inputs the installer managed to install the BI application successfully.

Conclusion:

The aforementioned steps will ensure you can install BI 4.X successfully on the RHEL 7.X (7.9 in my case) without getting errors for any missing patches on the OS. I hope this helps you with the installation and associated issues, do share your feedback in case you go through it.

Happy Learning!!
