IBM FileNet Content Platform Engine (CPE) and Content Search Services (CSS) errors creating thumbnails and indexing documents

Troubleshooting


Problem

When IBM FileNet Content Manager, Content Platform Engine and Content Search Services are indexing documents, or Content Platform Engine is generating thumbnail files or indexing documents, errors occur due to not installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package.

Symptom

When msvcr120.dll and msvcp120.dll are missing since "Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable Package" was not installed, errors can occur.

Content Search Services server starting up log message:
IQQG0006E Caused by: IQQG0020E java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: ExtendedException: G0147E.WORKERPROCESS_COMMUNICATION_FAILED IQQG0147E An error occurred when communicating with a child process.

Note: The textExtractor application (textExtractor.exe) fails to start because of the missing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) (msvcr120.dll) and so the CSS/ECMTS server is unable to communicate with the running textExtractor process.

Content Search Services server indexing:
IQQP9021E The version of the document parser (unknown) is earlier than the expected parser version (8.5.5).)

Note: The CSS/ECMTS server is unable to communicate with the textExtractor process and retrieve the OIT version supported by the textExtractor to compare with the expected version.

Note: The missing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) (msvcr120.dll) prevents the text extractor (ibmfndcm.exe) from executing to extract the document text, returning instead the -1073741515 code.
    
Content Platform Engine server thumbnail generation error:

Note: The missing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 Redistributable (x64) (msvcr120.dll) prevents the thumbnail application (ibmfnthb.exe) from executing and generating a thumbnail image, returning instead the -1073741515 code.

Error:
The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCR120.dll & MSVCP120.dll was not found
