defaults write ~/.SAP GUI can be installed and supported in many different operating systems including Windows, Mac OS and Linux. To set an environment variable, enter the following command How To Set Environment Variables in Mac OS XĪs many people are using different versions of Mac OS X, I’m writing down information for 10.6 – 10.11 versions. To skip few details I need to say that the results were positive – I was able to open MS Word document from SAP as it was downloaded in background to specified folder and opened by MS Word for Mac without any additions clicks from me. After discovery I decided to add TEMP variable to my Mac OS X configuration and see the results. I found that there was no TEMP variable, although there was TMPDIR variable, which is the same, as it seems to me. To do it one needs to start terminal and use “env” command to list defined variables. My third step was to look through MAC OS X 10.11 environment variables. Looking through SAP manuals (Link), I discovered, that requested by system variable would receive “space” value only if Operating System didn’t have such variable. It tried to get the value for parameter TEMP and it returned “space”. I found that the problem was in results of CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES. So, secondly, I started debugging source code to get the place, where I receive message mentioned above (SBDV 071). Seems, that this setting has no impact on my issue. But any changes is these settings did no effect to the problem. 
So, returning to SCASE and SCASEPS transactions – when I tried to open MS Word file, attached to Case, I received error message (SBDV 071) “No temporary directory available for temporary storage”.įirstly, I thought that the trouble is in SAP GUI Preferences for Applications, where Download and Upload directories are defined.
This behavior I caught in SCASE and SCASEPS transactions, but maybe it also applies to other transactions (although I wasn’t successful to get the same error in SBWP speaking of attachments). Few days ago I came across an issue, that I couldn’t open MS Office files via SAP GUI for Java for Mac OS X.
