Recovering From a Failed Installation or After the Files are Created

If the installation does not succeed, the installation program displays error messages. Review the error messages and your Adaptive Server error log to determine the cause of the installation failure. For default error log locations, see the Troubleshoot the Server topic.

If the installation program quits while you are configuring Adaptive Server:

  1. View the contents of the log file generated by Adaptive Server. For default error log locations, see the Troubleshoot the Server topic.
  2. Take any suggested actions to correct the problem.
  3. If the installation fails after the installation program has created any operating system files, such as the master device or system procedures device files, delete those files.
  4. If the installation fails after the installation program starts the Adaptive Server that you are attempting to install, shut down that server.
