Installation Error

Thread needs solution

We are trying to install Backup & Recovery 10 Server for Windows, but during the installation of the agent, it always errors out.  The errors are:

Error Code: 06442537

Suberror Code: 01603

In the full log it appears to be crashing out during the creating subst user.  The log file lines are:

!: MSIGEN:Failed to create subst user.

I am definitely logged in as an administrator for the install.  Acronis support has been less than "supportive" and barely even contacts me regarding the issue.

Can anyone assist?

Thanks

Brian

Hello Brian,

Thank you for using Acronis Corporate Products

 

To overcome the issue please create  __acro_subst_user__ account manually and try to install the program again. Please make sure that  __acro_subst_user__ has Replace a process level token security and Log on as a service security rights.

 

You can set these rights manually,  and it depends upon the status of the computer in the netwok:

 

- If the machine with the Acronis Agent is not a part of the domain;

- If the machine is a part of a domain and it is a usual domain member machine (not a domain controller);

- If the machine is a part of a domain and it is a domain controller.

 

You can learn more on how to do it here and here.

 

Thank you.
