Error on Windows Installation

Help! I am attempting to install the content server on a Windows 2000 desktop machine. I have 1G RAM with a 3G CPU. I am running an Apache 2.2.4 web server and an Oracle 10.2 DB. The installation seems to crank along OK and them at some random place or another I get
# An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
# EXCEPTION_PRIV_INSTRUCTION (0xc0000096) at pc=0x00a000b, pid=2860, tid=2396
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_11-b03 mixed mode)
# Problematic frame:
# v ~BufferBlob::getPsrInfo_stub
# An error report file with more information is saved as hs_err_pid2860.log
The error log file is not very useful (to me, anyway).
The error does not always occur at the same location in the installation, which I find suspicious. In this case, it occurred at statement 48: Creating database tables from 'database/oracle/worklfow.sql'
Just for kicks, I did execute that sql and verified it was not malformed or anything and that the user and connection information I gave the installer was valid.
Has anyone else seen anything like this or does anyone have any ideas as to what could be happening with my installation? I do have administrative privileges on the workstation, and I have verified that there is plenty of space left on the hard drive. I feel it must have something to do with it being a Windows installation...
(This is an installation of 10g rel3, BTW)
Many many thanks in advance -
Linda

That did it! I had tried that in the past and was unable to get the default JDK to update. I changed the Windows environment variable JAVA_HOME to a different JDK. I then edited UCM/ContentServer/resource/launcher-local.cfg to change DEFAULT_JDK_DIR to $JAVA_HOME.
When prompted for Java virtual machine during installation I selected "Specify a custom Java virtual machine". Then when prompted for path, it did not matter what I entered, it took the value that I had set for DEFAULT_JDK_DIR (in this case, C:\jdk1.4.2_06).
And Eureka! The installation completed successfully.
Thanks for your help!

Repair youe Apple Software Update.
Go to START/ALL PROGRAMS/Apple Software Update. If it offers you a newer version of Apple Software Update, do it but Deselect any other software offered at the same time. Once done, try another iTunes install.
If you don't find ASU in All Programs, go to Control Panel, Add & Remove Programs.

I can't Start, Uninstall or Install new iTunes. I'm getting the same error message: Window Installer Service could not be accessed. No other programs have similar problem. Any suggestion what can be done?

For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) (not for XP) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

Hi Abdallah,
According to your description, could you please post the summary and detail logs for further analysis? By default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
Usually, the error occurs when the Windows Installer Service is not running or the Windows Installer registry settings are corrupted. I recommend you reset the Windows Installer Service settings in the registry and restart the Windows Installer Service,
then reinstall SQL Server 2008 R2. For more details, please review this similar
article.
Thanks,

Error 1601 Windows Installer error

Hi, I was trying to update my Adobe Reader and I got error 1601
It said that the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed, and that this can occur if the Windows Installer is not properly installed.
I tried to go get windows installer "fixed" but when I click anything it always seems to be a program that is trying to get me to buy something.
How do I get Windows Installer working properly? Then once I do that, should I re-upload Adobe Reader entirely?

And "that program that wants me to buy something" being? Sounds like you have malware on your system and it's blocking all your installs.

Error in windows installer

Am trying to register my new iPhone 3Gs and downloaded the iTunes Windows Installer 64bit and it did not finish executing as it comes up with error saying there is a problem with the Windows Installer. does anyone know how to overcome this issue?

Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (The results from mydigitallife and Major Geeks are worth checking.)
After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove".
Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC, and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Keep getting error message: Windows installer is not correctly installed

Hello all..
After trying to install some software or getting the thinkvantage update I keep getting this error message.
"The Windows Installer service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance."
So I've restarted and made sure I was in normal mode. Didn't help. Does anyone have any idea before I put this thing into the shop?? LOL
Thanks!

Trying to upgrade an itunes download and getting error message "windows installer did not finish as expected. contact person or vendor"

trying to upgrade my ITunes for my Iphone and cannot access content. During upgrade getting message "windows installer did not finish as expected..contact vendor"

Perhaps let's first try updating your Apple Software Update.
Launch Apple Software Update ("Start > All Programs > Apple Software Update"). Does it launch and offer you a newer version of Apple Software Update? If so, choose to install just that update to Apple Software Update. (Deselect any other software offered at the same time.)
If the ASU update goes through okay, try another iTunes install. Does it go through without the errors this time?

How can I remove Apple Software update from Programs in Control Panel. I grt a message that there is an error in Windows Installer Package?

I get this message: "A program required for this install to complete could not be run.
There is a problem with this Windows Installer Package". OS, Windows 7-64

Error prevents Windows installation session3 initialization failed

Hello. I have done a search and have not seen a topic related to this. I have a Mac Book Pro with 2G RAM... and have partitioned my drive to allow 32GB for Windows. As soon as it goes through what seems to be an install process...it goes to launch windows and stops... and I get this message. (here is a photo of the screen http://www.locoroyale.com/apple/photo.jpg)
I have connected a keyboard and mouse, disconnected it, tried adding more space... I cannot execute the instructions to restart and press F8... ANY suggestions would be a giant help.
" A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. SESSION2INITIALIZATIONFAILED
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
Check to make sure any new hardware of software is properly installed. If this is a new installation as your hardware or software manufacturer for any windows updates you might need.
If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options, and then select safe mode.

Make that Session3.. not session2... my bad. apologies for the error. I did do some research online and some folks have reported this and solved it saying their drive was faulty. Is it possible to get an external drive and use that for the install? everything else I install with my drive has been fine.
Any info would help. Thanks.

Hi DavidT!
The image that you attached said that it is looking for "install.msi". If you had a shortcut to LabVIEW, it should have been pointing towards LabVIEW.exe.
Secondly, what do you mean by "I had installed an application which was located in a network drive. The application was deleted from the network and from my pc. Its no longer used...". By "application" do you mean an EXE file that you created using Application Builder in LabVIEW? If so, it shouldn't make a difference if you delete the application or not (for starting up LabVIEW purposes).
Maybe a better explanation of your situation might help too! However, if time is critical, I would probably just reinstall LabVIEW. It really doesn't take that long!
Hope this helps!
