Can't install Mountain Lion Server

I have decided to use Mac OSX Server for a home network of computers. I have a 3 year old iMac running Mountain lion and downloaded Server from the Apple Store. Each time I try to install it, I get a message saying it cannot connect to the server.
I have tried repairing the permission, turning off the firewall and running applejack.
It still will not install the server.

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.

  • HT4463 I Can't Install Mountain Lion On My Macbook

    I Can't Install Mountain Lion On My Macbook White 10.6.8 (Late 2010) . It Goes Throught The Process, And Once It's Downloaded, It Doesn't Say To Restart. I Restart It On My Own And It Still Boots Up To Snow Leopard. I Tried Downloaded It Over And Over Again Five Times, And It Does The Same Thing. Does Any1 Have Any Insight On This Issue?

    As a rule the Mac App Store won;t let you buy and download Mountain Lion if your hardware doesn't support it, so the first question is did you get ML from the MAS?
    If so then what procedure are you following to install the OS? You wrote that
    Once It's Downloaded, It Doesn't Say To Restart.
    but downloading is only part of the installation process, what exactly is happening on the system?

    Yes, you can.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

  • Can i install Mountain lion if i have Maverick installed? My audio interface do not support Maverick.

    Can i install Mountain lion if i have Maverick installed?
    My audio interface dont support maverick.

    You can, but unless you have a backup to restore it is not at all easy, do you have a backup?

  • I erased my HD. Now I can't instal mountain lion from my bootable flash drive, and keep getting "installation error. Try again."

    I bought  mountain lion, made a bootable flash drive.
    I booted from it and it went to upgrading right away!
    So I stopped it and went to my former recovery partition I erased my HD because I wanted a clean start.
    Now I can't instal mountain lion from the bootable flash drive, and keep getting "installation error. Try again."
    and there is no 4 choices window.
    I don't know what to do.

    How did you create the USB install thumb drive? If it was with Disk Utility I have run into this problem and have since used THIS program to make the USB install drive.
    As to your problem you only have one option and that is to Reinstall the Original OS X version that came on your computer or if you still have the Lion Recovery Partition use that to reinstall Lion. Or if you system came with Lion and you have No Lion Recovery HD Partition you can boot the system from over the internet and Reinstall Lion.
    At startup hold down the Command+Option+r keys until you saa a spinning Globe in the center of the screen. Once that loads Repartition the drive as One partition and then reinstall Lion.

  • Can I install Mountain Lion 64-bit over top of 32-bit version installed by mistake.  M/c is 24-inch mid 2007 iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (64-bit?)

    Can I install Mountain Lion 64-bit over top of 32-bit version installed by mistake.  Machine is 24-inch mid 2007 iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (64-bit?)

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Mountain Lion is a full 64-bit operating system. Why do you think Mountain Lion is 32-bit in your computer?
    To check that you are definitely using a 64-bit operating system, open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities) and type:
    uname -a
    Then, tell us what you see at the end after RELEASE. If you see i386, you are running a 32-bit operating system. If you see x86_64, you are using a 64-bit operating system. Also, the processor of your Mac is 64-bit

  • How can I install Mountain Lion in a VMware fusion, if it came with my macbook pro, and not purchased through the app store?

    I have Mountain Lion on my Macbook Pro with Retina but I want to install Mountain Lion in a VM for application testing. I try to install it from the recovery partition but it states that when I put in my apple ID, it states that it was not purchased through the App Store. My OS came with my Macbook. Is there anything that I can do to get it to install in a VM?

  • How do i upgrade my OS X version 10.5.8 to Snow leopard so i can then install mountain lion?

    I M TRYING TO INSTALL MOUNTAIN LION BUT THE SITE SAYS I HAVE TO HAVE SNOW LEOPARD FIRST. I CAN'T FIND THE DOWNLOAD FOR
    . CAN YOU HELP?

    There are several ways around this. You can go to on Amazon and buy snow leopard. Update to 10.6.8. Then use The App Store that comes on 10.6.8 and upgrade to 10.8.
    This is assuming you have a iMac that can go to 10.8.
    Note. You are posting in the wrong forum. You should be posting this in Mountain Lion, not OS X Server.
    Other way around it is, if you have another computer that is on 10.6.8, download 10.8.  Extra the disk image out from the Installation o mountain lion. Clone image to a USB flash drive.
    Do a full backup of 10.5.8 to external HD such as a clone of it. Then boot up with the USB drive on 10.8. Format the internal HD. Then install 10.8 on it. transfer data back with migration tool after you boot back up.
    The easiest way would be just getting 10.6 DVD
    Good Luck
