10.5.3 hangs on "configuring installation" - any ideas please?

Have a MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo.
Downloaded the 10.5.3 upgrade to Leopard, restarted, (3 times now) and watch the installer hang at "configuring installation".
Any ideas please?

We had the same problem with updating one of our G5s. However, after selecting the install and quit button the computer froze up. Now, we can't get the computer to boot up AT ALL. It hangs at the grey screen with the apple and rotating gear. But nothing after that. I have been successful only once to get it to boot up in safe mode, but can't since then.
These are the things I have tried:
Replaced the internal battery
Tried to start up holding down shift key (safe mode)
Booted up on the eDrive that Tech Tools created and ran all the diagnostics (nothing)
Ran Disk Utility: When verifying permissions it came up with a few errors, but didn't fix any of them. Said that the disk (harddrive) couldn't be "unmounted" therefor couldn't fix anything.
G5, OSX Leopard 10.5.1

10.5.4 won't install-hangs on Configuring Installation

10.5.4 won't install-hangs on Configuring Installation and I have to force quit the installer. I've tried to wait it out for over an hour, but the progress bar never moves. This is with the Combo Updater. I've also tried using Software Update, but the progress bar for checking for new software stops about 3/4 of the way, and hangs forever. Any advice? Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Unfortunately such problems do occur for some people, not necessarily through any fault on the part of the user. Interruption of an update can cause problems for which there are solutions.
Which update was it?
Go to the Apple icon and select Software Update and see what it recommends if anything. Don't actually instal, rather just quit SU and let us know what the result is.
Secondly, open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. Select your hard drive in the LH column then Repair permissions from the lower part on the RH side of the window. It will take about 10mins to complete its task. If there is a list of permissions finishing with a message permissions repaired rerun this to make sure there are no more. See whether the odd behaviour continues.
If it does, insert the original installation dvd and restart holding the C key until the Select your language window appears. Do this & on the next window Select Disk Utility from the Tools menu. Again select your hard drive but this time choose Repair Disk. If there are repairs indicated and they are completed rerun this too to check that no more are needed. When this is finished rerun Repair permissions as well if there were any repairs carried out. Restart the computer normally and see how it all goes.

Installation hangs at "Configuring devices."

Solaris 10 6/06 Installation hangs at "Configuring devices." stage.
I have tried to:
1) boot with "pci-reprog=off"
2) disabled Core Duo in BIOS
and with combinations of these.
But nothings helps.
My system:
Intel Core Duo 6400 @2.13GHz,
Western Digital WD2500-KS,
NVIDIA GeForce 6200.
Does anyone know workaround for this issue?

i have exactly the same problem.
a blank screen after configuring devices.
this is just too different from:

Xcode Installation Hangs on "Running Installer Scripts"

Hi, I'm trying to install Xcode to take advantage of their gcc and make files. However, no matter what I do, Xcode installation hangs on "Running Installer Scripts". Searching on Google did not give me any help. I can't quit the process either. Here's a screen shot:
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_id4E4GFQud0/SfvsNwDdDaI/AAAAAAAACnI/23tE3vWw3vk/Snapshot%2 02009-05-02%2001-44-41.png
Could you please advice on what can possibly go wrong?
I'm running OS 10.5.6, and installing Xcode directly from the Mac OS X Disc 1 CD. In the CD document, it says Xcode Developer Tools 3.0 for Mac OS 10.5.
Thanks!

Thanks for the details of what you've tried. Every detail you can remember increases the chance that someone can spot the problem.
My read is that you've documented beyond much doubt that a clean install is what you need. Restoring your system was a good try, but I don't think that would change much outside of the /system folder. Even if we think it did, the evidence you provided tells me that some files from the first Xcode installation remain. I would be looking for files created on that date and checking perms in places like the root directory, /tmp, /usr/share/sandbox, etc. I would also advise renaming /Developer as written in the +Book of the Dead+. I didn't invent that instruction; it was distilled from dozens of case histories in this forum.
You might also try one of the 3rd party tools that's out there for cleaning Macs. I've never tried any of them though, so can't make a recommendation.
Oh... erm... You did restart your Mac at some point since the problems started, right?
Re installing only gcc, have you been to the Developer Tools page at the connect.apple.com site? Select Downloads on the home page, and in the next page select Developer Tools from the lower right panel. I found 2 downloads that appear to be full gcc installers: Xcode Legacy Tools and GCC 4.2 Developer Preview 1. The other gcc downloads seem to be updates. I might try gcc 3.1 in the legacy tools. It's probably all you need, and if not you'd be good to go for an update.
Of course, you could always download directly from the gnu site, just you might need to be a rocket scientist to install one of those packages. I'm guessing it would be a learning experience. There's also something to be said for using a 3rd party installer, since it probably wouldn't be affected by whatever is stopping the Apple installer(s).
Sure hope some small part of the above turns out to be useful. But in any case, please let us know how you resolve the problem.

Update hangs on 'Configuring Installation'

The 10.5.3 updater downloaded through Software Update is hanging at the 'Installing 1 item window at the Configuring Installation stage. What now?

i downloaded the upgrade combo file from apple and installed it instead.
it works. and took less than 10 mins. it did reboot twice on its own.
but now it is installed and verified so from the software update.
however, i am wondering where did the original software update downloaded the file.
cause when i was having problem i know the file was downloaded somewhere as it does not prompt me for download when i retry the upgrade. just wanted to make space on my air.
oh i also tried to repair permission on my air before i ran the combo update. it fixed an error in a log file.

Install of 7.02 upgrade not working... hangs at "configuring installation"

I've tried to update iTunes to 7.02 five times already... Everytime I do it it starts off okay, and then while it's installing it just stops... An hour ago it was at "configuring installation," and it's still there (no movement on the progress bar.) I've never had a problem... EVER... installing an update, so this is really bugging me. Any ideas would be appreciated... HELP!

Did you repair permissions? Try that first.
As a second resort then try the full installer. Not software update. Remove the itunes.pkg file from the library first to make sure things are not getting confused.
I use this protocol for any updates:
1. Download the installer from the downloads area. (for OSX always download the large but complete combo version vs. the delta installer)
2. Repair permissions before.
3. Run the full installer
4. Repair permissions again.
I have never had a software updtae related problem on 3 macs with the OS and iLife applications ever. So it is working for me. Including IT 7.0.2
In a real pinch you might have to move to the next steps - try deleting itunes plist files and retry with the full installer. Remember to go in and redo your preferences which only takes a minute.
Stil no luck, export the playlists to XML files, trash the application, pkg files, plist files and reinstall from scratch.

Windows 7 installation hangs on 'completing installation' in boot camp

hi
i am trying to install windows 7 ultimate 32 bit using boot camp and each time i have tried (except on one occasion) the installation has hanged on the 'completing installation' stage. i initially had this problem, then one time it worked, but then i had to wipe my boot camp partition and start again, and since then no joy in installing windows 7 again.
when the installation hangs it sounds like the install DVD is making a whirring sound as though there is an issue reading the DVD. but i have tried two different windows 7 install DVDs in both drives on my Mac Pro and i keep getting the same problem.
i have tried installing without any peripherals plugged in, including my cinema display, but still no joy, except for that one occasion, when i am not aware of having done anything different.
the boot camp partition is 32GB, and i have the same issue whether starting the installation using the boot camp assistant, or just booting from the Windows DVD and formatting the boot camp partition during the install.
can anyone help me troubleshoot this?
thanks
nick

On a Mac Pro with four hard disks, you would be better off devoting an entire HDD to Windows. You do not even need to start the Boot Camp Assistant application.
However, that does not appear to be the problem. Perhaps the size of your Windows partition is a bit on the smallish side. Why so small? Have you tried a larger partition? Going larger would be a good experiment to help drill down to the installation problem.
Try to eliminate anything under your control that could be part of the problem.
At 32GB that's the borderline between being permitted to use FAT32 formatting and being required to employ NTFS. Presumably, you allowed the installer to use NTFS. In fact I think Win7 requires NTFS. Switch the partition size a little down or a little up to eliminate that as a possible glitch point. Just a thought and probably a stupid one but you never know...
An afterthought: Can you get hold of a FireWire DVD optical drive. Maybe the internal drive is faulty.

Windows Vista Installation Hangs on "Completing Installation" on Dell Inspiron 1720

I have a Dell Inspiron 1720 that I am working on. The original problem with this computer was that it was accidently shut off during a Windows Update. The computer will only load to a black screen with a white movable cursor.
Unable to resolve that issue, I decided to purchase a replacement hard drive (WD Scorpio Black 320GB -- Model # WD3200KTRTL) and proceed to do a full install of Windows Vista using the Dell Reinstallation Window Vista Home Premium 32BIT disc that came with
the computer.
Towards the very end of the installation, the system hangs on the "Completing Installation" section. I decided to leave the computer turned on over night just in case there were things that were still loading. This was not the case and the next morning I
turned off the computer.
With the new hard drive installed and with Windows Vista installed (minus the "Completing Installation hanging...) I am faced with the same problem as before when I had the existing hard drive installed.
Can anyone help me solve this issue? Ideally, I'd like to use the existing hard drive instead of the new one, simply because there is a lot of data and problems on the other drive.

How could it be that I can't reinstall Vista after replacing the hard drive in my Inspiron 1720 when I have the original DVD from Dell, to be used for just that purpose? Well, the answer was exactly what Jaco suggested. After hours of struggling
with this, and about at the stage where a new computer made more sense that continuing to try to get this 6 year old one running again, changing the AHCI setting allowed the Vista installer to get over it's CRCDISK.SYS hangup. A 30 second fix, but finding
it took hours. Sigh...Thank you for posting this, Jaco.

Installation stalls at Configuring Installation stage

We finally purchased 10.5 and I've been downloading updates for the past week. We live out in the boonies so we're on dial-up and it took me 5 nights to download the 326ish MB update. So imagine my thrill when the download was complete and I started the install. But the install stalled at the "Configuring Installation" stage for 4 hours. I was no longer thrilled. Then the power went out. I thought I had lost the download so I went to download it again but it started the install over again and then stalled at the same stage for several hours, again.
I have done a few searches through Google and the archives here. Either I'm not searching for the right terms or this isn't an issue that's come up yet. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to get 10.5.5 to install or any insight as to why it would take 4+ hours to configure the installation?
The only thoughts I have is that the download lost something in it's series of interruptions as it was being downloaded (dial-up seems to kick me off after X many hours, apparently) and that this is causing the install glitch, if it's even a glitch at all. The only other thing I can think of is that my now outdated Norton Antivirus is trying to scan the download and causing trouble - but as far as I can tell it's deactivated.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi1 The only main system update you need is the 10.5.5 combo updater which is found HERE. Your problems are most likely what you think, dial up, Norton etc. Your best bet is to get someone to download the update for you that has a high speed connection or get the Apple Store to burn you a copy (if you are near one). It shouldn't have taken 4 hours to install once downloaded and the interruption may have damaged the install you have. You would probably be better off doing an archive and install of the main system and then applying the combo updater. It depends on whether the system seems to operate ok now. If it does I'd retry the updater with all external printers etc. detached. Tom
ps If you can't find anyone to burn the update for you I'll burn you the updates and mail them to you.

Software Update Installer stuck on "Configuring Installation"

Hi, I just received my Mac Pro yesterday and, of course, it needed some updates. After I downloaded some software updates and the large Combined Update for Leopard, I chose to restart the computer to let them install. As of about 45 minutes ago, the progress bar hasn't moved (approximately at a 2% position). It isn't slowly moving; rather, it's not moving at all. The window simply says "Installing 7 items" and "Configuring Installation".
I have a feeling that this is caused by the Combined Update. Is this normal, or do I have a corrupt update?
Thank you!
Michael

i have the same problem.
go to and delete everything in my HD/Library/Updates.
then run update again and choose only the leopard update.
best to use a cable than wireless, this is a huge file.
hope this helps... sara

ABAP Trial Installation Hanging at Configuring Login Information

I have a Windows Server 2003 machine that I want to install the SAP NetWeaver Java and ABAP Trial versions on (yes the same machine). I've downloaded everything I need and have successfully installed the Java version without a problem.
Everything seems to be running perfectly.
Now, when I try to install the ABAP version it gets passed creating the database with: "database NSP created successfully Tu, Jul 14, 2009 at 11:28:08"
Now it's onto step "Configuring login information..." @ 52% and it's just sitting here - it's now 1:17 so it's been here for about 2 hours now with no progress movement.
I tried looking for a logfile and I can't find one anywhere so I'm not sure what exactly the installer is doing. How do I proceed to debug this to find out where the hang up is?
Thank you!

I killed the kernel.exe process hosted the NSP database to force the installation to fail.
It looks like it's having problems with changing passwords?! I am using the same exact password for the J2E instance as this NSP instance (the password is similar to: Dhgy123#). I did read that "@" symbols were a problem - perhaps "!" is as well?!
The following is part of the end of the log file:
(Jul 14, 2009 2:35:22 PM), Install, com.sap.installshield.maxdb.maxdb_call_sdbinst, err, An error occurred and product installation failed. Look at the log file C:\sapdb\NSP\log.txt for details.

Pl post exact versions of "11g" and "Windows 7" - Home versions are not supported - you will need Professional or higher.
Looks like the "-ignoreSysprereqs" flag was used for the install - is there a reason for this ?
