Solving error SAPGUI WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND

by

You have successfully installed SAP GUI on Windows (described in article How to install SAP GUI on Windows) and added destination IP / SID on it.

But you find error (picture below) “WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND: The specified class was not found” when you call the SAP Logon Item.

SAPGUI-error-001

It’s also said ‘sapdp00’ not found.

SAPGUI-error-002

To resolve this issue first you check your services file which is usually located in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\services. Add the following entry to the file:

sapdp00   3200/tcp

SAPGUI-error-003

Note:

change the port which is appropriate according to your SAP System Number. If your SN = 10 then you should put    sapdp10   3210/tcp  in your services file.

Now restart your SAP GUI and retry.
