Can't install app server 8 on XP - PLEASE HELP

Hi. I am new to J2EE programming and am busy going through the J2EE tutorial and am trying to install sun java app server 8 on my PC which is using windows XP.
I suspect that some kind of "firewall" is blocking a port that is needed for the install as the installation just freezes after i specify that I wish to install to location X. I have literally waited up to an hour and nothing happens so the problem is definetely not that I am being impatient. Also i checked my file system and the installer never even gets as far as creating the location X. It does get as far as launching the Java Runtime enviroment etc. but just "hangs" when I specify to install to C:\Sun\AppServer\ (default - I have also tried different locations and hard drives to no avail.)
I did manage to install the same app server 8 on Win 2000 but have since formatted that particular hard drive and installed XP Service Pack 2 (I also uninstalled Service Pack 2 as I was worried that the firewall in Service Pack 2 was stopping the install). I did also disable all my other antivirus / firewall programs.
I have also read the other forums and have tried the install from the command line (after renaming to .zip and unzipping the installation file). It also stops at the same point on the command line.
PLEASE HELP me because the only other thing i can think of is to install Win 2000 again; install the app server and then upgrade to XP. I really only want to do this as a last resort as it is very time consuming to re-install all my programs again!!!! I have even tried installing other versions and the bundles and the NetBeans 3.6 + J2EE platform bundle but get the same problem (after it installs the NetBeans IDE).
There are no errors that I can see as the GUI just freezes (I can't click on "next"; "cancel" etc.) I can only click on the X (Close button) and the program then says that it is not responding and from there I can quit.
THANK YOU
Ian

Please check both potential causes described in this thread since your situation sounds the same:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=136&threadID=564300
(first issue would be productregistry lock file, second one GUI problem).
Since you are saying that GUI freezes, second one sounds more likely - so try running the installation in command line mode as described in the thread.

  • I can't install apps from my apple store, need help

    Hi All, I have an iphone 3GS. I used to download free as well as purchased apps from the app store. For some reason I am not able to do that anymore. For example when I try to open my facebook app, it keeps on not opening it, last time it did that to me, I deleted it reinstalled it, but now I am stuck because I can not install anything from the app store. Pls help what it does it: I click on the app store, it will allow me to pick the app I want to install (e.g. facebook, then it gives me the option to download, i.e. 'Free' but the free is with a plus sign i.e. "+Free"  then when I click on it, the "Install" appears but partially like "insta..." then am stuck can't install or do anything, anyone with idea on how to resolve this?
    P.S. I have not upgraded to IOS 4
    I have tried to restart my phone so many times,
    I have logged out and re-logged into the app store on my iphone.
    thanks much

    Log out of the Apple ID on your iPhone.
    Reset your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Log back into to your Apple ID with the current password.

  • Can't install Adobe Flash player ERROR. Please help

    I tried to download the update of Adobe Flash Player BUT every time I try to download it... Look at the screen shot. ERROR.
    Please help me I am really happy if someone here can help me.

    Hello,
    The log file indicates there are permissions issues on a couple of files and they are not being removed.  This is preventing the installation of the new version.  Please run the uninstaller, posted here Uninstall Flash Player | Windows, and post an updated FlashInstall.log file, and a screenshot of the files remaining in the /Macromed/Flash directory after running the uninstaller.  Please only run the uninstaller and do not attempt to re-install at this time.
    Thank you.

  • I can't install the QuickTime!!! Please help!!!

    I can't install the QuickTime. "The QT installer write: A newer version of QuickTime is already installed. This installation cannot proceed while the newer version of QuickTime is installed."
    But I not installed QT, I have not QT on my PC (WIN XP SP3)!!!
    I'd like install QT after iTune!
    Please help me anybody!!!

    C:\WINDOWS\Installer will show .msi files. Right click and go to Properties then Summary will show what application they pertain to.
    If you go to Start>Search>For Files or Folders>All files and folders, then type in .msi and do a Search. Then place your mouse pointer on one of these .msi a window will appear showing the info, which maybe easier.
    At some point QT was installed on the computer and removed. Old QT .msi installation files were not. This is why you are having a problem.

  • Can't install tiger v. 10.4 please help!

    I may be being incredibly stupid here but how I am supposed to install Tiger if my iMac doesn't have a dvd drive?? I currently run OS v.10.2 and need to upgrade, I bought Tiger and now I find I can't install it because I can't run the installation DVD! Surely there must be a way around this which doesn't involve me paying out for a DVD drive. If anyone can offer me any help if would be much appreciated!
    Many Thanks,
    Linsey

    Hi,
    you can exchange your DVD for installation CDs. I'd call Apple to get that done. Since we don't have Apple Stores around here I don't know if you could also go there and have your media exchanged. Alternatively you can hook up a DVD-equipped Mac via Target Disk Mode and install it that way.

  • App Server 7 EE errors Please help

    Hi all
    I have a cluster of 3 App Servers 7 EE load balanced by 3 Web Servers.6.1
    When i access my clustered application it suddenly becomes slow and i get these 3 errors on and on in the Web Servers log:

    These errors cause the static content not being shown (images or css's), or the typical blue screen : "Due to a temporary error the request could not be serviced"
    The app servers dont show warnings or errors about this (they only show some HA SSO warnings) and the network settings look fine, I have no network or communication problems between the servers
    Does anyone know what could be happening??
    Thanks a lot

    Resetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,

  • Can't install any OS in Presario SR1319RS - please help

    I have "inhereted" a HP Presario SR1319RS from my friend. The PC was working well until it got a virus. He gave it to me because he bought himself a new one.
    I deleted everything, including the System Recovery (F10) partition. He did not have the original CDs that came with the PC anymore. Anyway, I have tried to install Ubuntu and Windows XP in separate ocassions. The PC restarts itself when the Ubunty installation process is about to start. It cycles itself all the time.
    When trying to install Win XP, I am able to format the hd (SATA), create the partion where the OS will be hosted, but after going through that process and copying every file necessary from the CD to the PC and when it's about to initiate the installation process, it reboots itself. It does that everytime.
    I have tested the memory modules and hd in other PCs, and they work w/o any issues. Is there a "special" way that HP used  when putting this PC together.... that you know of?
    I don't want to label this PC "unusable" because I knwo it can be salvaged. So, please let me know if you know of any tricks, advices or gossip that you know and could help me fix this PC.
    Many thanks in advance.

    You're very welcome.
    That I do not know.
    Did you try only one memory module in the PC at a time to see if one is flaky and causing the problem?
    I once had a PC that was behaving like yours.  It did have a bad capacitor which I had an electronic tech friend of mine replace.
    I thought that was the problem.  Nope. XP would get to a point and crash.
    So, I decided on a whim to just run the PC with one memory module (there were two).
    I tried with one and XP crashed as usual.
    But when I removed that module and replaced it with the first one I took out, XP loaded fine and that was the problem--a partially bad memory module.
    I replaced it (actually I maxed out the PC to 4 GB) and it has been running fine ever since. It even has the same chipset as yours (Intel 915).

  • How can I install apps on a device that has a "for work" app installed?

    Hi, I have an iPod touch version 4.3.5 (ML1). Model is MC540C.
    It has been provided for me from work, but I can use it as I wish.
    The apps that are installed are:
    Facetime
    Music
    Photos
    Camera
    Videos
    YouTube
    Stocks
    Notes
    Weather
    Utilities
    App Store

    "one app installed by company"
    The last app is needed for when I do work. It doesn't need to run on the background. When I'm doing work, I need to input some information in that app, and sync it to my company's server.
    I would like to install some apps (free) of my choosing. But I'm coming across a hurdle...
    I choose "App Store" in Home.
    I search for a free App (for example the Google Search app by Google Inc)
    I'm taken to the app's info screen. I tap the blue "Free" button.
    The button becomes a green "Install App" button.
    I get a pop-up box saying
    Apple ID password
    [email protected]
    [password]
    How can I install apps of my choosing without having a "work app" get deleted? This work app was installed on the "[email protected]" Apple ID.
    Thank you.

    Ingo2711, when you did this:
    I logged out of my AppleID on the iPod, took it to his computer, synced it, which erased all of my apps. I installed the default apps plus one app that he bought using his account info.
    You made his computer the syncing computer.
    When you did this:
    Connected to my Mac and iTunes and tried to sync one of the apps I bought with my account. The app shows up on one of the pages before you start the sync, but once you apply the sync, it does not transfer.
    And, of cause, no restrictions set at all.
    You changed syncing computers but you can only sync apps (and some other things like photos) from only your one syncing computer.

  • Can I install Calendar Server on another partition other than root file system

    Can I install Calendar Server on another partition other than / ?
    <P>
    In this version, the default path is hard coded to install in
    /users/unison. However, if you do not have enough room on your root
    partition or choose to install it in another location, you can do so
    using a logical link. The installation guide explains this as well.
    <P>
    For example, suppose you want /users/unison, which must NOT already
    exist, to be logically linked to /var/opt/unison, which must exist.
    Then as root user:
    <P>
    <UL>
    <LI>
    Create the directory /users (if it does not already exist)
    <P>
    % mkdir /users
    <P>
    <LI>
    Create the logical link. The directory /users/unison must
    NOT exist before doing this.
    <P>
    % ln -s /var/opt/unison /users/unison
    </UL>
    <P>
    <P>
