Install Guide
When launching the Systems Management Install, an error 
message may display, stating a failure to load a specic library, 
a denial of access, or an initialization error. An example of 
installation failure during Systems Management Install is 
"failed to load OMIL64.DLL." What do I do?
This is most likely due to insucient Component Object Model (COM) permissions on the system. To remedy this situation, see the article 
support.installshield.com/kb/view.asp?articleid=Q104986
The Systems Management Install may also fail if a previous installation of systems management software or some other software product 
was unsuccessful. Delete the following temporary windows installer registry, if present:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress
I get a misleading warning or error message during systems 
management installation.
If you have insucient disk space on the Windows system drive, you may encounter misleading warning or error messages when you run 
systems management Install. Additionally, windows installer requires space to temporarily extract the installer package to the %TEMP% 
folder. Ensure that you have sucient disk space (100 MB or more) on the system drive prior to running systems management Install.
I am getting the following error message while launching 
systems management Install:
An older version of Server Administrator software is detected on this system. You must 
uninstall all previous versions of Server Administrator applications before installing this 
version
If you see this error when trying to launch systems management Install, it is recommended that you run the OMClean.exe program, under 
the srvadmin\support\OMCleanup directory, to remove an older version of Server Administrator on the system.
When I run systems management Install, I see unreadable 
characters on the Prerequisite check information screen.
When you run systems management Install in English, German, French, or Spanish and get unreadable characters on the Prerequisite 
Check Information screen, ensure that the browser encoding has the default character set. Resetting the browser encoding to use the 
default character set resolves the problem.
Where can I nd the MSI log les? 
By default, the MSI log les are stored in the path dened by the %TEMP% environment variable.
