3381113 - The sapinst tool produces an error message stating, "NiIWakeupBind: NiIBind failed," and fails to initiate.

Symptom

The sapinst is called but it does not go up.

In /root/.sapinst (UNIX) or %USERPROFILE%\.sapinst (Windows) directory, there are messages like:

WARNING <timestamp>  (root/sapinst) (startInstallation) [syxxcnwmgt.cpp:226] id=syslib.network.getInfoFailed iastring CSyNetworkMgtImpl::getDNSDomainName() const
Unable to determine parameter "DNS domain name". DNS domain name is not configured in resolv.conf (UNIX) or the registry (Windows) and neither getaddrinfo nor gethostbyname could retrieve it.

When open the file dev_webdisp (in same directory), you see similar to this:
