Diagnosis: There is an issue with Windows during the installation.
Solution:
-
Run AnalyticsConfigurator stopservice
-
Run AnalyticsConfigurator startservice
Diagnosis: The Windows Task Manager interrupted the Tricentis Analytics installation.
Solution: Do not open Windows Task Manager during installation.
You receive one of the following installation error messages:
-
Install failed -cache error
-
Install failed -shared folder not generated error
-
Install succeeded - Tricentis not accessible from external client machines
-
Install succeeded - seeing password error from Qlik postres in the Windows Event Viewer log
-
Install failed- Clean TEMP Package Data
Diagnosis: The %TEMP% folder and Package Data needs to be cleaned
Solution: Remove files inside these folders on the Windows System as:
-
Clean the %TEMP% folder
-
Clear the %PROGRAMDATA%/Package Cache
Diagnosis: The ping timeout is reached. The Qlik services don't start.
Solution: Move the actions to Qlik out of installation material. These actions would be run after installed.
Tricentis Analytics would start all Qlik services before sending the API.
Diagnosis: Qlik is uninstalled due to files needing cleaning
Solution: Do this manually:
-
Clean TEMP folder and Package Caches
-
Search the registry and delete the above items
Diagnosis: Some files are still left that were not removed, especially Qlik installation, files, registry entries, and temp files.
Solution: Do this manually:
-
Clean %TEMP% folder and Package Caches
-
Search the registry and delete the above items
Diagnosis: There is a database connection issue
Solution: Check if the reload tasks succeeded and whether Qlik has created "*.qvd" files in the shared folder location under ..\QVDFiles.
Diagnosis: This message can display when you load the application right after installation. Typically this message indicates that the data is still loading.
Solution:
Wait for the data load to be complete.
OR
Load data manually before accessing the application.
Diagnosis: After installation is completed, the system will automatically run the AnalyticsConfigurator.exe in cmd. This event will run all of the Qlik services. Because some services require a few minutes to start, the system will keep pinging Qlik Service, resulting in a list of ping failed and time out messages.
Solution: This message indicates normal behavior. No action is needed if this message displays.
