IBM Notes FP2 on Win7 Virtural Machine

Hi All,

Platform - Win 7 Virtual Machine

Notes Client - 9.0.1

When I try to install FP2 on my existing notes 9.0.1 client, at the end it comes up with a message “The wizard was interrupted before IBM Notes 9.0.1 FP2 could be completely installed.”

Do you have any idea what might be the cause please.

TIA.

Subject: Besides the install log, could you help to provide the install sequence?

Could you help to provide the install sequence? It will help us to reproduce the issue.

901 → FP2 or 901 → exact Hotfix/Addon → FP2?

Subject: Same issue

I’m running into the same issue with Notes 9.01 FP3 SHF255. When I try to go to FP4 I get the same message. Also running Windows 7 on a virtual machine.

Did you ever find out what the issue was?

Edited to add my Solution:

I figured it out after finding a hint in the installer log. It couldn’t rename a directory /jvm. I tried to rename it and was not allowed since another process was holding it. The only other process was the VM Parallels v10.0. I turned off Share Windows folders with mac and was able to install FP4.

Subject: Please provide log for analysis

Please use startcollector.bat to collect the logs. The startcollector.bat is in the Notes RCP subdirectory of the Notes client framework directory, e.g. c:\Program Files\IBM\Notes\framework\rcp\ for Notes 9.x. For more details, please refer to http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21424260 http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21424260

In case startcollector.bat failed to execute, please manually wrap up below logging folder/files?

  • The folder workspace/logs, workspace/applications, workspace/.metadata, workspace/.config
  • The folder <Program Files (x86)>\IBM\Notes\framework\rcp\deploy
  • The folder <Program Files (x86)>\IBM\Notes\framework\rcp\systemdata (if existed)
  • The file $user/Document/IBMNotesInstall.log, and $user/Document/IBMNotesInstallerLog.cab
