Hello Oleg,
I've tried the installation on another machine with the same Error.
I attached the zipped logfile.
I replaced the domainname and the accountnames with
XXX_DELETED_XXX for security reasons.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Oliver,
Thank you for the provided information.
It looks like some traces prevent the program from the installation. Please do the following to install the program:
1) Please delete the following value in the register (Start -> Run -> regedit):
HKLM\Acronis\Encryption\Server\UseCertificate
2) Please remove the file located at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Acronis\Agent\certificate.pem.
3) Please check if undesired Acronis services are present at the system (Start -> Run -> services.msc). If you see Acronis service, please delete it manually using sc delete command (Start -> Run -> cmd).
Type sc delete and the service you want to remove (you should specify the service by the service name), for example, if you want to delete Acronis remote Agent, you should type:
sc delete AcronisAgent
After that try to install the program again.
Thank you.

Hello Oleg,
thank you for the fast response.
The entire Regkey HKLM\Acronis has been deleted.
The complete Folders C:\Program Files\Common Files\Acronis and C:\Program Files\Acronis also have been deleted.
Two remaining Acronis Services also have been deleted using the SC command.
But the Error is still the same.
I've added the new log, but for me it seems as it's the same as before.
Greetings

Oliver - did you get anywhere with this issue. I have the same install errors and have tried deleting all the files and registry settings I can find listed in the forum without success.

Try to extract the agent msi file and install it separately, worked for me with this error.

Hello,
we also tried it using the msi-package instead of the exe-installer.
Meanwhile we solved our problem by installing a new clean machine and installed Backup & Recovery as first package after OS-installation.

Hello all,

We have released a new build of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10.0 (build #11133). Please download and install the latest build. You can learn more on how to download the latest build here.
See if the issue remains.

Hello,
as we have a few remaining servers with the same old problem, I've tried to install the new build 11113 on two of them.
But the error still remains.

Hello all,
Thank you for using [[http://www.acronis.com/enterprise/ | Acronis Corporate Products]]
I can find the exact reason of the issue after analyzing the MSI log file, the screen shot of the error message or the error code doesn't allow to investigate it.
Oliver,
According to the latest log file the installation of the Acronis timounter module has failed. This should be fixed in the following way:
- launch the installation package and select to extract the files
- extract the Agent component (Agent for Windows) to a temporary folder: C:\Acronis\
- then go to Start -> Run -> cmd -> and execute the command:
msiexec.exe /i C:\Acronis\AcronisAgentWindows.msi DRIVERS_LOG=1 /l*v C:\Acronis\install.log
If by any chance the installation fails again, please pick up the created C:\Acronis\install.log file.
Thank you.

I had a similar issue a few weeks back and resolved it - it was in forum job # 3689
My issue was resolved when I set the Acronis VSS Provider service to Manual (was disabled)

I had the same problem.
Then I tried installing for "only current account" and all works fine.
I don't know exactly why this happens, but give it a try...

Hello,
due to a large Rollout and other projects I had no time for this server during the last weeks.
We upgraded a few server to the new build 11345 during the last days.
Thereby I also tried a new install on the server mentioned above.
Unfortunately the error still remains.
I tried to install as you described in #12
The logfile is attached.
Greetings
Oliver

Hello all,
Thank you for posting your questions, I will be happy to help.
Michael,
The program has failed to find the licenses in Acronis License Server. Please make sure that the current version requires Acronis License Server. For example, if you use the trial version of the program, Acronis License Server of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 does not accept trial license keys. When installing a trial version, do not specify Acronis License Server - put in trial licenses during the installation instead.
Acronis License Server of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 also does not accept licenses for standalone editions.
Oliver,
This is a rare Windows based issue. During the installation, Acronis product uses a Microsoft Visual Basic script to register the Acronis VSS. There is an issue with this Microsoft Cscript, which returns the wrong return value resulting in a roll back.
Please make sure that you are using the latest build of the program #11345. Please log in to your account on our web site to download the installation file. You can learn more on how to download the latest build in this article.
With this build you can install the Acronis Agent ignoring the Cscript error by issuing the following command:
msiexec.exe /i [PATH]AcronisAgentWindows.msi IGNORE_VSS_REGISTRATION_ERRORS=1
where [PATH] is the path to where you have the AcronisAgentWindows.msi file.
For example,
msiexec.exe /i C:\AcronisAgentWindows.msi IGNORE_VSS_REGISTRATION_ERRORS=1
Volker,
Could you please provide us with the .msi log file of the failed operation? This file is availbale at the bottom of the program window after the installation failure. This information will help me to investigate the issue thoroughly and provide you with a possible solution.
Steve and Pippo,
Thank you for sharing the experience.
Please let us know the results, we should be sure that the program runs flawless for you. If the provided information is not clear or if you have any other question do not hesitate to post them and we will be glad to answer.
Thank you.

Hello,
thank you Oleg, with the parameter IGNORE_VSS_REGISTRATION_ERRORS=1 the installation was successful.

Hello Stephen,
Thank you for the provided information.
According to the log file, Microsoft SQL Server doesn't exist or access is denied. Do you use Microsoft SQL Server that comes with the installation package or do you use Microsoft SQL Server previously installed on your machine?
We are looking forward to hearing back from you at your earliest convenience. If the provided information is not clear or if you have any other questions do not hesitate to post them and we will be glad to answer.
Thank you.

Hello Oleg,
Thanks for your prompt reply, in my computer i had installed microsoft sql server under odbc for my sap application. Is is the problem that i cannot install acronis backup and recovery software in my computer.

Hello Stephen,
Thank you for your response.
The fastest way is to install Acronis Management Server to another computer, if this is possible. Your SAB application shouldn't cause the issue, Microsoft SQL Server should be installed as a separate instance and they shouldn't influence the functionality of each other. Nevertheless, if you have this possibility, please do it and see if the issue remains.
Otherwise, please collect the below information:
1) Please create step-by-step screen shots on how you manage your installation (untill you hit the proceed (or install) button).
We are looking forward to hearing back from you at your earliest convenience. If the provided information is not clear or if you have any other questions do not hesitate to post them and we will be glad to answer.
Thank you.

I have same problem build 11345 ABR 10
I was able to resolve by doing this by doing msiexec.exe /i [PATH]AcronisAgentWindows.msi IGNORE_VSS_REGISTRATION_ERRORS=1
So why does the latest build not have the fix built in for this ?
I spent at least an hour searching the support forum found this fix and it worked
Wanted to confirm if issue was going to be addressed and tried to use on line chat
Not happy at all with support, used the online chat and all they do is copy and paste from the support forum
I have read about a lot of issues with people having problems with support.
I am having second thoughts about using this product. If we run in to a problem on prodcution servers it needs to be resolved quickly

Hello data center,

issue is still there with build 11639.
was having the same issue, also something about timecount.
tried to clean uninstall all (using acronis utilty)
no help.
the management service just wouldnt install, until i extracted the file and did the install manually.
problem happend on
2 x windows 7 64 bit pro
1 x windows xp.
weird that all updates on acronis are a pain.
it's like, if you got it installed, don't ever touch it.
and attention: all settings were lost using the uninstall utility. have to recreate all.
well at least it seems it worked now, anyway. since i have acronis i am having issues once I touch anything.

Hello,
I was having the below issues trying all recommended fixes from Acronis Tech Support, including reading this and other similar posts on this forum.
For me, somehow, the Workstation service was not installed which meant my Client for Microsoft Networks was not enabled in the network bindings.
After adding/enabling Client For Microsoft Networks on my network adapter the installation went smooth. Please see the attached images for the errors I was receiving.

Hello Cathy,
Thank you very much for your post. I will do my best to assist you.
I am happy that the installation issue was resolved although at the moment is difficult to say what caused it without additional logs.
If you continue to experience the same problem, an installation log together with an AcronisInfo report will greatly help us in resolving it.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
Thank you.

and the frustration go on and on and on again .......
the most frustrating part is that if upgrading fails, neither reinstalling previous version works.... same error! ( while installing previous version months ago worked without troubles) .
the update 12457 installed well on only 1 machines of 3 of mine.

Installing ADM 1.0.566 failed to install on a WinXP System with the same error. Now I found the hint with "installing it for current user only" - it worked! Now it runs fine on my old IBM laptop with winXP. Thank you very much!!
