Install IBM BigFix Relay (Version 9.2.6) fixlet - exit code 1203

DSimona · May 12, 2016, 4:16pm

Hello,

I had to uninstall relay component from one of our devices and needed to install it again.
The uninstall fixlet got completed with exit code 0.
The installation one (Version 9.2.6)) got completed with exit code 1203.

Can someone please advice on what this exit code means?
Also, I do not have remote access on the device.

I’m presuming this is Windows so according to what I see from InstallShield its:

1203 Invalid command-line parameters.
     Double-check the command-line statement used to launch Setup.exe.

How did you attempt to install it (which fixlet and which action as there are 3 in that fixlet) and did you pick a good drive etc?

Yes it is Wondows.
I have sent fixlet 2275 - Install IBM BigFix Relay (Version 9.2.6).
Have chose the second option to prompt for the installation patch and setthe same location the relay component was installed before uninstallation - E:\Program Files (x86)\BigFix Enterprise\BES Relay\ .

I think you need to open a PMR to get some help here.

Thank you for your help. Will do if anything else fails

I had this same exact issue. The problem I had was that I placed a “\” at the end of my install location path. The action then placed a “\” at the end on the path as well. this resulted in “\\” at the end of the path on the install command which is obviously a bad path. Hopefully this helps someone down the road.
