unexpected error occured

[Steven]

Hello, I tried to install a trial version of TeamPulse on a win 2k8 (64-bit) server. At the end of the wizard I push the install bottom and I get follwing error: An unexpected error has occured

All installation requirements are ok. I choose a complete installation. Entering the SQL (win 2k8 64-bit) connection information, test connection is ok.

I found this error in the installation log file:

Hello Steven,

It looks like you have encountered a bug in the installer. Several SqlServer DLLs which are required for us to perform actions against the SQL Server are not being included in our MSI, and when not present on the machine to which you are running the installer it will fail.

We have fixed the problem with the installer but the fixed MSI will not be available until our service pack release which is scheduled for the end of the month. In the meantime, I have created a workaround for you.

Attached to this post you will find a zip file containing several files. If you extract these files to a folder on the machine you are installing to and then run the register-smo-assemblies.bat file, it will install the 6 missing DLLs into your Global Assembly Cache, allowing the existing installer to function correctly.

Please let us know if you have futher issues. I have awarded you some Telerik points for your troubles.

Jesse,

Thanks a lot for your answer. I haven't tried your solution yet because the installation succeeded by installing the SQL Client connectivity feature. However, I installed it on a virtual testserver. I will try the workaround once the management decided to purchase the product and move it to production.

Thanks a lot for you help and quick answer.

Kind regards,

Steven.

Ran the bat to register the missing files from an elevated prompt...Still received error 1603, rebooted and re-ran...still getting 1603 but it did create the database before giving the error.  Installed SQL Client Connectivity tools since it worked for others but still getting 1603 and the install can't complete.

Hi John,

If the database was installed correctly, then the bat file must have worked for that portion at least.  There are more steps that happen after database installation and one of those must be failing now.  Would you be able to run the installer again and get a log file generated from it?  To do this you must run the following command from a command line:

msiexec -i TeamPulseInstaller.msi /l*v teampulselog.txt

After the installer finishes, please have a look through the log and post any errors you find here.  You can also open up a support ticket if you like.
