webMethods Knowlegebase : My webMethods Server (MWS) Installation Not Creating MWS Instance (1806491)

Problem

When installing MWS with the installer, the installation ends with an error, and the MWS instance is not created.

Similarly, when try to create a new instance with the command "mws.bat new", the command fails to create an MWS instance.

Below error can be observed in insall.log:
