Hello Elke,

i ordered a CD via internet and i received it very fast (Aug, 31th, only 2
days after ordering it). Trusting that the CD would contain the actual
version i made an update (from Build 15 to CD build). Taht update worked
fine but when i tried to get my sapdb to warm modus i recieved the below
mentioned error -9111 cause it was build 23 on the CD. 
That hint to 'wait' for build 24 is a bit frustrating cause it was made
weeks ago, and my internet connection is very small so downloading would be
a very long lasting download... Is there a possibility to get the actual
build on CD?

Thanks in advance and best regards

Matthias
