Greetings,

Forgive me, I have spent three days surfing the KB's and the forums to get an actual answer to my problem. Currently I am using a Fortinet Subscription to clean my email which is what we use for many of our customers. I have wanted to review the latest version of ME. I have installed two 2003 fully patched Enterprise servers, one is a AD and the other is dedicated Exchange 2003. I have mail flowing in and out of it. Yesterday I attempted to install a eval copy of ME 14 and it gets down to the last 16 seconds of the install and just stops responding. I have met all the requirements. If someone could please point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it. More history... My two systems are working on a ESXi server and meet the requirements for both Exchange and ME.

Thanks
Bob

Hi,

Do you receive any errors during the installation?

Can you check if %temp%\install.log exists on your system?

I've had a couple of these, and running IISRESET at the command prompt whilst it's waiting let it continue.

I have looked and it appears to hang at the same place every time. I have even done the IISREST /RESTART like many of the member have stated to no avail. Here is the end of my log, it never changes, everytime I run it always stops here:

MSI (s) (84:34) [22:17:51:239]: MsiProvideComponentFromDescriptor called for component {997FA962-E067-11D1-9396-00A0C90F27F9}: returning harcoded oleaut32.dll value

I also tried reregistering all the specified libraries. I know it has to be simple or else others would be having the same problem.

Thanks
Bob

Sorry, I met IISRESET /RESTART, just a type :)

Sorry I can't help further; I'm not sure what it's trying to do at this point.

I guess I am SOL as it appears no one else has had this problem. I have tried support and they do not seem to know either.

This is the last entry in my install.log

MSI (s) (8C:EC) [22:09:18:766]: MsiProvideComponentFromDescriptor called for component {997FA962-E067-11D1-9396-00A0C90F27F9}: returning harcoded oleaut32.dll value

Support can't help? Oh dear.

There's two things I'd do at this point:

1. Look at another product.
2. Get a copy of Procmon and see if anything untoward happens, such as an Access Denied. You will have to wade through a mass of information though!

I know it's no consolation, but I've never had a machine I couldn't install it on, including XP!
