Presentation server 4.0 installation failed abruptly because of an error

I am trying to install Citrix Presentation server advanced but when it comes to the presentation server installation it failes with the errror : Presentation server 4.0 installation failed abruptly because of an error

I have checked the citrix web page and got the turnaround by using :
msiexec /i "c:\MPS.msi " CTX_MF_LICENSE SERVER_NAME=<NAME>
but no luck.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Nick

the operating system is Windows 2003.  I have the licenses installed correctly and terminal services also installed in App mode.
any errors generated in the registry?

how far do you get in the installation?  and what components do you have selected to install?

>>I have checked the citrix web page and got the turnaround by using :
>>msiexec /i "c:\MPS.msi " CTX_MF_LICENSE SERVER_NAME=<NAME>

what is this?

I've seen this happen with damaged installation media. If you're installing from a CD, make sure that its clean & scratch free. You can download the installation media from MyCitrix - http://citrix.com/mycitrix
i am installing from a file. I have installed the web insterface , the management console, license server etc. The installation fails at the presentation server. Suddenly it says "rolling back" and starts unistall the presentation server.
I installed using the same file on a test server and installed just fine.

The above command is what i found from the citrix site claiming that this error happens because the installation cannot find the license server.  So u kind of forcing it to learn the name of the license server. In any case it didnt work.
Citrix have an article on how to troubleshoot installation errors by creating an MSI installation log file - http://support.citrix.com/article/entry.jspa?entryID=5725 . If the log doesn't make it plain what the problem is, post it here and we'll see what we can work out.

i have noticed :
E:\Program Files\Citrix\Licensing\MyFiles\license_20060309115027.lic
14:40:33 (CITRIX) SERVER line says HOSTNAME=HOPS01, hostid is HOSTNAME=testa


how do i change the server line to be testa ? (this is where the lic. are installed)

was HOPS01 the previous name of your server?  did you rename it after installing the license server software?
well HOPS01 is where i found the license file. I am installing citrix on a different server TESTA.
I opened the license files with wordpad and i manually changed the name ( but it keeps on switching the server name to HOPS01)

That might be the issue.

any ideas?

the license file says that the hostname name is testa (all lower case) . During the install , when it comes to the license server i enter testa (although it is already written as TESTA , but i change it to testa)
still the installation fails with the error " installation failed due to an error" . The only error i see is a tthe above log file.

when downloading/installing licenses from mycitrix.com you have to specify the name of the server and can't just move licenses from server to server.  Is this what you have done?  If you originally downloaded these license files from mycitrix you will have to re-download them for the proper server.
You can't change the name of the license server in the .lic file, you have to get a new license file from MyCitrix. Note that the name is CaSe Sensitive.
yes , i  did , and take alook on the log above. I dont understand the line ...SERVER line says HOSTNAME=TESTA, hostid is HOSTNAME=testa


where is the HOSTNAME=TESTA (is this the server name ? cauz the server name is testa (all lower case)
also the lic file also says that Hostname=testa.
I downloaded the license file from citrix to the testa server and uploaded and even saw the license key that was registered correclty.

the above line though (mismatch between hostname and HostID might be causing the issue)

Whats interesting is that Citrix was succesfully installed on another server with out any license files. (actually the previous server had wrong license files on ) but the installation was completed.

The issue is on Hosta server.

thanx

The licensing server name that you enter in MyCitrix to create the .lic file must be an exact case-sensitive match to the output of the "hostname" command from a command prompt on the licensing server.
it is. I was very carefull the second time , when i was creating the lic. file via my citrix.com

Check the values of each of the following registry keys - they should all be a case sensitive match to the server name you entered in MyCitrix, and also check that there isn't a space at the end of each of the values.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ActiveComputerName\ComputerName
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName\ComputerName
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Hostname
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\NV Hostname

You shouldn't need to reboot after changing the values in any of these registry keys, but it won't hurt to do so.

ok , i will do first thing in the morning and let u know. Thanks so much !!!
