Unable to install SCVMM 2012 - MSI error 1638
Hi Folks,
I am getting an installation error whilst trying to install the new version of SCVMM 2012. I had an earlier version (2010 I think) install which I removed via Programs and Features (also removed database, share and program directories).
When I try and install the new version the log file shows
Note: 1: 1729
Product: Microsoft Web Deploy 3.5 -- Configuration failed.
Windows Installer reconfigured the product. Product Name: Microsoft Web Deploy 3.5. Product Version: 3.1237.1762. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation. Reconfiguration success or error status: 1638.
I assume that there are probably some left over registry settings or something, does anyone know how I can clean out the old system properly or fix the issue?
Regards
Andy
Manually uninstall the "Microsoft Web Deploy 3.5" first from the "Programs and Features" works for me.

Cannot Install SCVMM 2012 - Hardware Management Error (WinRM)
Hello All,
I am trying to install SCVMM 2012 on Server 2008 R2, However, when installing, I met the following error:
I tried using the command "winrm qc" but "Access is Denied" error is shown.
My account is a domain user which has been given local administrator privilege.
Any help is appreciatedBrian,
Why we can't run the SCVMM installation using Local administrator account ?
From the Tech net : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg610656.aspx
To start the Virtual Machine Manager Setup Wizard, on your installation media, right-click
setup.exe, and then click Run as administrator.
For the WinRM errors , isn't this something to do with UAC , Can you use an elevated command prompt and run "winrm qc" if you still get the access denied error , please check that administrator account has a non blank password
WinRM needs to be fixed prior to go for VMM installation -

Unable to reinstall SCVMM 2012 R2 during database migration - access denied to VMMDKM container
I'm trying to migrate my SCVMM 2012 R2 DB to a new SQL 2012 server. As per TechNet article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn469626.aspx,
I uninstalled VMM, which went without a problem. During the reinstall, setup fails with "Unable to create or access the Active Directory container CN=VMMDKM,CN=System,DC=feroscare,DC=local. Access is denied. Specify the distinguished name
for the container and verify that you have GenericRead|CreateChild|WriteProperty rights on the container." - as is shown in the setup log below.
I'm trying to use the same account as the service account and to connect to the database. I'm logged into the VMM server as that user account (and running setup as that account). I have verified that the account has full control over the VMMDKM container
and all descendant objects. I've also added these permissions for the VMM server's computer account, although I'm not sure that's necessary.
VMM server is running Win 2012 R2, SQL server is 2012 running on Win 2012 R2. Domain controller is running 2008 R2 with AD at the 2003 functional level.
Please can anyone please advise what to do next to troubleshoot this?
What seem to be the relevant lines from the VMM setup log:
"12:33:04:Error:SetupDKM method threw. See inner exceptions, Exception Type: System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryServicesCOMException, Exception Message: A constraint violation occurred.

Installing SCVMM 2012 r2 in a VM on Hyper-V 2012 and windows failover cluseter
Hi,
I am planning to configure scvmm 2012 r2 that will be managing 30 hyper-v host servers, please guide me will it be ok if i install and configure both scvmm 2012 r2 and sql server 2012 on same VM running on Hyper-V Failover Cluster ?
Regards,
Afzal
[email protected]Hi,
Like most of the time, there is a lot of possible topology to achieve your design.
Installing VMM and the database in a virtual machine on the same cluster that it manage is a supported scenario.
The first question you have to ask is : What is the availability level i need for my VMM infrastructure ?If
you shutdown the SCVMM instance for patching, you are not able to deploy new VM from template, and not able to create and manage Virtual Networks. It don't affect existing VM or Virtual Networks. Does this break your SLA ?
Most of the time, VMM don't need a guest cluster (unless you are a hosting provider with provisionning portal
available 24/24 7/7).
The main advice i will give you is :
Keep it simple as possible !
Don't build complex infrastructure if you don't need to achieve a very hight level of availability.
Availability, complexity and management cost have a exponential relation.
For large deployment, you can use a dedicated Hyper-V cluster to deploy System Center and infrastructures services (SCVMM, SCOM etc...) But there is nothing wrong in deploying VMM in the same cluster as the VM it manage. The design you have to achieve should
be thinking in terms of availability and serviceability.
I don't think that 30 Hyper-V hosts need a dedicated SQL Guest Cluster.
If you install VMM on one VM and SQL on another, you will not achieve more performances, but your VMM instance
will be less "portable".
Cheer.

Unable to install SQL 2012 Enterprise on Windows 8.1 OS
I had installed SQL 2012 Enterprise on my Windows 8.1 and was running successfully. I faced some SSRS & SSIS Authentication issue. So i decided to uninstall SQL and re-install it. On doing so, i am unable to install it.
Wizard disappears from this screenshot onwards.
Tried installing from Command Prompt.
Setup.exe /q /ACTION=Repair /INSTANCENAME=instancename /IAcceptSqlserverLicenseTerms=true
Still wizard disappears.Hello,
I guess un-installation of SQL server is not complete and there are fragments remaining.Have you made sure you have uninstalled SQL server from add remove program completely.Make sure no features related to SQL server are present there.Please remove setup
support files as well.Refer below link to remove it completely
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh231731.aspx

If you face any issue below manual method for removing SQL server will be helpful
1. Uninstall the existing SQL Server 2012 and all the components from the control panel.
2. Backup the registry.
3. Delete the following keys in regedit:
--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server
--HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer
4. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall and delete all the sub-keys referencing SQL Server.
5. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services and delete all the keys referencing SQL Server.
6. Rename all the SQL Server folders in the computer.
7. Reboot the machine.
Revert if you face any issue.

SCVMM 2012 R2 show me the following:
Error (26571)
Cannot refresh the Windows file server storage provider (IP) because the storage provider has atleast one file server that has not been successfully created yet.It's easier for us to help once we know the following:
1)what have you done so far
2)what are you trying to do?
Have you deployed a scale-out file server cluster with VMM? How many nodes is it in the cluster?
Or have you simply added a single Windows File Server to your VMM fabric? Can you take a look at the provider in VMm and see if there are any more details around the problem?

Unable to install any adobe products ERROR DF024 unable to preserve original file
Hi,
I was unable to install anything of adobe. When I install creative suit and update Photoshop I got this error.
I tried everything. Nothing worked. So I did a cleansweep of Adobe and restart. I tried installing a try version of Adobe Photo shop, but that will also not install....
How can I solve this? Thanks

Unable to install lightroom 3.6 error code 2753
Had issues with my computer today (windows 7 64 bit) finally was able to get a restore point that would allow the machine to access windows and all the programs (including Photoshop CS5) were functional except lightroom 3.6. I was not able to have the windows un-installer remove lightroom so I had to go and do it manually. I downloaded another copy from Adobe. When I try to install I get the error code 2753. The file Lightroom.exe is not marked for installation. I checked the FAQ's and there was only one reference to that code but it refered to lightroom 2.0 software installation. I re-installed lightroom 2.6 with no problems and I tried installing the 3.6 software after installing the 2.6 version. I had no luck still receive the 2753 error code. When I initially installed the 3.6 version on 12/4 there were not issues and the software worked with no problems. Any ideas / suggestions? Thank you.

What had occured was when I was working inside of Lightroom one of those balloon messages popped up making note of a hardware driver not working or missing, I really did not pay attention to be honest I thought it may have had something to do with the download of files off of the compact flash card. After downloading the files into lightroom I turned off the machine. Later on when I came back to work on the files the machine would not boot up into windows 7 instead a sort of chkdsk utility initiated, after it finished checking the disk I was given the option of going to a previous restore point, the first time it did not work. On the second try with a different restore point selected I was able to bring up windows. Everything was working except for the lightroom software. After running Registry Reviver and also optimizing the registry I still was unable to get lightroom to work.
I decided to download another copy and re-install. Well the first trouble encountered was not being able to un-install the software from the control panel utility so I tried installing the software without the old software being removed, that is the first time I received the 2753 error code. I checked adobe.com FAQ page and the only mention about this code was in reference to the 2.X version. I tried the procedures there anyway. Still no success with the error code 2753 still coming up. I then decided to remove the software manually from the computer (only in windows, did not go through DOS or to regedit). I again ran Registry Reviver software and tried installing the software again with no success still.
Finally I decided to google the error code 2753 and review what was actually happening. Part of the instructions to clear the code required me to download some software that microsoft created (msicuu2) that would force the removal of the lightroom software from my machine (it was still showing up in the control panel un-install eventhough I removed it from the program file in windows). I again ran Registry Reviver and Optimized the registry, re-booted the machine gave it another try and this time I had success.
I am happy to report that Lightroom is working without any problems. I cannot say with any certainty what caused the problem initially for all I know it could be just a case of SH's syndrome.
I took note in your reply about the stability issue, I will pay more attention for now to see if there is a re-occurrence of this or a similar problem and then address it at that time. I would like to mention that I did not loose any photo files or have any files corrupted due to this problem........ so I am thinking more a windows problem as you alluded to in your reply than it being a Lightroom problem.
