Troubleshooting
Problem
IBM Statistics 19 will not install via MSI command line. I try to install version 19 on a Windows 32 bit machine via MSI. Therefore I copied the complete win32 folder from the DVD to C:\temp folder because in this folder you can find the necessary MSI and other files needed to push the installation. I open a command prompt and change the directory to C:\temp\win32 and run the following command according to the instructions in the SPSS License Administrator's Guide on page 4 in the Command Line Example: MSIExec.exe /i "IBM SPSS Statistics 19.msi" /qn /L*v 19log.txt After running the command the program was installed in the default directory C:\Program Files\IBM\SPSS\Statistics\19. In the C:\temp\win32 the 19log.txt was also created and the text in the log confirms that the program was installed successfully. However, the following error is returned when attempting to run the program: "C:\Program Files\IBM\SPSS\Statistics\19\stats.exe This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem." How to install IBM SPSS Statistics 19 on Windows via MSI? This problem also appears when installing on a Windows 2003 server for a network license and try to start Statistics 19 on the server, I get the message: "The application failed to initialize properly."
