OME fails to install

I'm trying to install OME 1.2.0 for a good many hours now, but it won't succeed. I use installation manual "Dell OpenManage Essentials Install - Aug 2013.pdf" as a guide. A couple of months ago, I installed OME on a test server and everything worked fine. Now I'm trying to install it on a live server running Windows Server 2008 r2 with SQL Server 2008 r2. The installation rolls back at step "Publishing Essentials application in IIS". It's busy for a little while and then rolls back the installation. Windows Eventlog displays a couple of errors:

  • Application: InstallUtil.exe
    Framework Version: v4.0.30319
    Description: The process was terminated due to an internal error in the .NET Runtime at IP 000007FEEE699A31 (000007FEEE510000) with exit code 80131506.

    And:

  • Faulting application name: InstallUtil.exe, version: 1.2.0.1160, time stamp: 0x51b714d0
    Faulting module name: clr.dll, version: 4.0.30319.1008, time stamp: 0x517a18ff
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    Fault offset: 0x0000000000189a31
    Faulting process id: 0x14ac
    Faulting application start time: 0x01ced946d48958a3
    Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Dell\SysMgt\Essentials\bin\WebInstall\InstallUtil.exe
    Faulting module path: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\clr.dll
    Report Id: 3e1db677-453a-11e3-9d0e-74867ad81352

Seems to be related to .net framework, so I re-installed .net Framework 4.0. Makes no difference. Where do I start looking for a solution?

The log file "MgmtSt_15_52_40.log" doesn't contain anything useful, as far as I can tell. A snipped of the log just before it starts the roll back:

Hi there Simon and thanks for the post.

You might first check to run all windows updates on that box.

The problem could be in the Microsoft .net framework.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2640103

Download the hotfix here:

http://support.microsoft.com/hotfix/KBHotfix.aspx?kbnum=2640103

Google this to find a number of people with the same issue.

"CLR.dll" "0xc0000005"

�

Hope this helps,

Rob

Hi - I am experiencing the same issue although the reason must be different.

I am not getting any faulting application errors in Windows event log, but the installation goes to the same exact point then Rolls back.

 

This is this moment what I can see in the instal log:

Hi there,

It's hard to tell from this snippet if it is the same issue.  We'd need to see more of the installutil.log file.  Or you can open a ticket at 800-945-3355  to review the logs.  Be sure you review the install whitepaper if you've not had a chance to look at it.

Was this an existing IIS install?  Or did you let OME install/configure IIS?  Can you describe the permissions characteristics of the account you used to install?

Thanks,

Rob

Hi Rob,

I could not find any INSTALLUTIL log file

The one I traced being created during setup is MgmtSt_

BTW - would be nice if installer could leave a message "Installation failed - for details see MgmtSt_ log file"

 

But I found this installation error has more to do with database on remote SQL server then local IIS.

This is what happens:

  1. I have OME 1.1 with a DB on a remote SQL2012 server - when I try to upgrade, it fails as I described above
  2. Although it says "your system was not modified" it actually deinstalls exisiting OME
  3. Now when I try to clean install OME 1.2 pointing it to remote DB - it fails exactly as in step 1
  4. When I choose to clean install OME 1.2 choosing to install local SQL 2012 express - it finishes without issues
  5. which leaves me with a blank OME 1.2 off course which I don't want, I just need to upgrade

OS is W2K8 R2

I tried it both from OME service account - and using Domain Admin account.

You got me Rob... I was only looking in Temp folders...

This is the reason I found in C:\Windows\Temp\InstallUtil.log

* The .Net SqlClient Data Provider has received a severity 16, state 1 error number 5069 on line 4 of procedure '' on server 'PL-SQL1': ALTER DATABASE statement failed.

Some operations are not allowed on a database that is participating in a database mirroring session or in an availability group. ALTER DATABASE statement failed.

 

Indeed our new SQL server is configured with Availability Groups.

 

So I removed OME DB from AG, then the upgrade process went without issues 

So far so good, rebooted the OME server just to make sure... and guess what - I am left with blank DB version 1.2 (...oh God give me patience...)

All my Devices, Discovery Ranges, Alerts are gone....

Maybe you can tell what happened I see in log it detects corruption ??

Hi again,

after spending another day on this I finally got it working.

The problem was with remote SQL server version 2012.

Even when I removed OME db from Availability group - the upgrade proces was destructive.

 

When I tried that with another remote SQL server version 2008 R2 - all went fine and smooth.

The same output from Installutil.log file shows all OK, no corruption:

Installed the hotfix, rebooted machine, ran Windows Update (no updates found), but the error installing OME is the same. Removed .net Framework 4.0 and let the OME-installer take care of it. Error persists.

Searching for "CLR.dll" "0xc0000005" results in lots of hits, but they all point to the earlier mentioned hotfix.... I'm stuck....

Hmmm...ok, well if the database is seen to be corrupted it is wiped and a new one is created for the install.  Question is what happened during the upgrade process to clobber the db.

Do you have a backup of the database?  If so, we might be able to use the re-targetting process.  I might have to suggest you use the support number from my previous post.

Thanks,

Rob

Simon, for yours we'll need to get a look at the system to see what's causing the issue.  Can you open a ticket (800-945-3355).

Thanks,

Rob

Simon,

Are you installing on a Domain Controller?

At any rate, the nature of this log looks like an issue you can get a one-off patch for.  But you need to open a ticket so they can provide it to you.

Thanks

Yes, it's a second domain controller. I'll open a ticket to obtain the patch. Thanks!

Dell Support Personnel has taken a look at the case and it needed further investigation. In the mean time, I looked at the InstallUtil.log. It occurred to me there's something about the OmeService account in SQL server. So in SQl Server Management, I renamed this account. Then run the installer again and... smoothly installed.

It looks like the rollback doesn't remove this account. I guess it is given a random password upon installation. If you try a second installation, the account is already there, but the new password doesn't match the existing one? Don't know if that's the problem - a very clean install, with a new database instance, could not fail on this point...

Anyway, it's installed, but unfortunately won't run. So I installed the official patch 1.2.1. But as soon as I start 'Essentials' from the desktop, Internet Explorer is started and it displays the splash screen indefinitely. It doesn't move on. When I check the Windows Application eventlog, it displays two errors very similar to those of the failing installation. There's also a warning in the System eventlog.

After some more searching, I gave up. Installed the thing on another server and all works well..... Weird, since the other server is virtually the same.
