Error 1606 on Server Install

DougBrowning — Fri, 04 Jan 2013 17:51:37 GMT

I am getting the attached error when trying to install ArcServer 10.1. "Error 1606. Could not access network location NOT_INSTALLED\Lib\site-packages"

I am able to give a dir, un, etc then right after Computing space requirements i get the error. Searching around it seems to be a registry Windows error. But I can not find anything in there about it. This is a brand new machine. ArcGIS Desktop and the background 64 bit have been installed. I am not installing over a network and do have admin rights.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

I had that error also, but resolved it by installing 10.1 SP1 Service Pack 1 is the full product for Server. Also look at this Microsoft
article:

Error message when you install a program: "Error 1606. Could not access network location <common administrative tools>. All users\"

I had tried the registry MS thing a number of ways with no luck.

I was able to get a copy of the new 10.1 SP1 install and that worked!

Now if I can get the ports opened up.. Even with windows firewall off still no one can get in.

Thanks.

I installed 10.1 SP1 and still get this error. Has anyone else found suggestions for how to deal with this error?

Then I would try a clean uninstall/reinstall of server. Rename or delete all ArCGIS and ESRI folders, and do the same in the registry. Then reinstall.

I worked with support yesterday and the resolution was to do an uninstall then install 10.1sp1.

I figured that was the route to go. Thanks!

Deinstall Desktop 10.1 SP1 Background GP. 64-bit Python will deinstalled also.
After that you will ba able to install ArcGIS 10.1 (SP1) without any errors.

Thanks, Bubba Hey! This solution worked for me as well - I didn't realize the SP was the full installer.
