Problem with Composer installation

[dreic]

I have vCenter server 4u1 installed on Win2k8 R2 x64. When i try to install composer the setup runs, i get 1st screen and then it should start extracting the data from the setup but nothing happens. So i have to kill the installation...

Anyone had this problem and solved it?

I have the exact same setup, and I didn't have this issue. Perhaps your installer is corrupt? I'd re-download, check the hash, and try again.

Aside from downloading it again, make sure you are running the package with Administrative Permissions.

Rightclick the package and select "Run as administrator"

I'm sure you are doing that but worth mentioning for others.

Well i already tried redownloading the setup but it's the same. And no, i didn't run it as Administrator since i am domain admin but i'll try that now

Run AS administrator did the trick LOL ....

Thank you!
