The c: drive for both servers was over 10GB in size and had 80% of that
free before the installation, so I think I'm good. I did cleanup
vpd.properties and all the files in TEMP and in Program Files after each
install. I am goning to try again on another system. The fact that it
stopped with the same symptoms on both servers points to a packaging
problem I think. I'll redownload the files...

Hi Guillaume,
ISC fails to install every now and then and it's mostly not very clear
on why it fails. A couple of things to check:
- Free space on the installation path (pref. 1-2 GB free space)
- Free space on the drive where TEMP is located (pref. 1-2 GB free
space)
- After a failed installation don't forget to clear
C:\Windows\vpd.properties with all entries to ISC
- Verify that the downloaded file is the correct size
I've had ISC and AC fail on installation a couple of times, restarted,
restarted, restarted and hey it installed.
Btw, you cannot install AC without ISC (it's is a plugin for ISC). Don't
forget for AC to change the installation path (ISC installs in
<drive>:\Program Files\IBM\ISC601 by default and AC 5.3.x will install
into <drive>:\Program Files\IBM\ISC by default, so change either on of
them to reflect the other).
Met vriendelijke groet, with kind regards,
Richard van Denzel

Onderwerp: [ADSM-L] ISC installation problems
Hello
I am having problems installing ISC on Windows 2003 servers. I tried 3
times on a VMWare image with a fresh install of Win2K3. The image had
1024 Mbytres of RAM allocated. The 3 times the install stoped at 93%.
The last entries in ISCRuntimeInstall.log are :
(Sep 7, 2006 4:06:51 PM), Setup.product.install,
com.ibm.isc.install.ismp.FailAndExitAction, wrn,
ISCArchiveFixupFail_Exit (Sep 7, 2006 4:06:51 PM),
Setup.product.install, com.ibm.isc.install.ismp.FailAndExitAction, wrn,
(Sep 7, 2006 4:06:51 PM), Setup.product.install,
com.ibm.isc.install.ismp.FailAndExitAction, msg2,
status=FAILED,timestamp=Thu Sep 07 16:06:51 EDT
2006,progress=(unchanged)
I then tried on another server, non-VMWare with 2 GB of ram with the
same result.
This is version 6.0.1 of ISC. The package name is TSM 6.0.1 Integrated
Solutions Console 2005-10-19 C86PQML.exe, downloaded form Passport site.
As the readme says, ISC must be installed before AC, but I read
somewhere that you can install AC without ISC. Is this the case?
Any help is appreciated
