Install failure related to ABR 11 Workstation install

Thread needs solution

I got as far as it installing the Agent Core msi and then Setup quit with an error. The log file contents are:

=== Verbose logging started: 7/1/2011 20:39:02 Build type: SHIP UNICODE 5.00.7601.00 Calling process: D:\ABR11S_17217_en-US.exe ===

Does anyone have a notion what is going on? I am running Setup on Win7 Professional x64. Thanks for any hints.

Brian,

Is that the full MSI log? If that is just an excerpt, look for a return value of 3 and in the section above that see if there is a code 1603.

Things that might work are deleting as many files in the User temp directory as Windows will allow and see if that solves the problem.

Check in services that the Workstation service is running.

Here is the sort of thing you are looking for in the log file - this is from my system that won't let me install DD11 Advanced.

Action ended 15:55:05: InstallFinalize. Return value 3.
CustomAction _USRCUSTACT_MsiManagedMachineServiceInstall_ManagedMachineService returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)

Hello Brian and Colin,

Thank you for your posts and thank you very much for helping Colin.

Brian, let me offer you additional assistance please.

Could you get back to us with these two diagnostic files which will help us with the installation issue:

1. .msi log.

2. Windows System Information file.

You can always get in touch with our Support team directly if you need immediate help.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you.

Maybe this help someone in the future.
Regarding the error in MSI Log:
Failed to connect to server. Error: 0x80080005
MainEngineThread is returning 1601

The first reason being that you are trying to install an application while in safe mode. The second possibility is that the Windows Installer is not properly installed.

To solve this problem please perform following steps:

1. Go to start\run and type : msiexec /unregister.
Once done Go to services.msc and we should not see the Windows Installer service there.

2. Go to start\run and type : msiexec /regserver.
Once done We should now see Windows Installer service under services.msc.

3. Re attempt of Acronis installation

4. If above not resolve the problem then you should download and install Windows Installer 4.5 (or 3.1)

5. Re attempt of Acronis installation
