Hi all So managed to get it all working and have now managed to do this multiple times. Assumption is you are starting with a clean server --( if not make sure you remove any old folders and also Profiles of users involved. The following consistently works for me now and tested with other users. Make sure you have a connection to www.esri.com open In IE run as administrator during install & configuration. Run as administrator the msi installer (msiexec /I d:\admin\Install\ArcGISServer\SetupFiles\setup.msi      /L*V d:\arcgisserver.log) Before you configure the site change the service to the domain account. Make sure the account has local admin access. Apply not only file permissions ( full access ) but change the security "owner" of the folder to that of the account as well Reboot the server in between install and config changes. Some of the issues I have had appear to be related to profiles, permissions and an "open connection” to the esri web site. Key points clean any old profiles out!! Some of these might be red herrings and will leave ESRI to fix.. but the above i can get it all working ( so far 7 times ) ... View more
