    I am attempting to upgrade my SEE 11.0.1 MP1 HF1 management server to SEE 11.1 release, when the installation started for a short while, the error message popped up and installation roll back.

    SEE11.1Error4.jpg

    There is one Symantec KB talking about the similar issue  -- https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH228146.html, I tried all different options, it did not help.

    OS: 2008 R2 standard

    SQL: 2008 R2.

    I tried to launch the MSI directly and run the command line install, all failed with the same error.

    Windows install account is local admin and member of admin group, SQL install account is sa.

    Here are some errors in the MSI log:

    Symantec team gave me a workaround and it fixed the error, now I am running SEE 11.1.0 GA release version. Here are the intructions I followed.

    1. Uninstall the 11.1 beta version from my SEE management servers.

    2. Run the following SQL query on my SEE 11.1.0 database (the one we participated the beta testing).

    delete from GEMSCommands where CmdCode = 7

    update GEMSDataAccess set DbVersion = ‘9.8.7’

    3. Install SEE 11.1.0 GA release version and the installation completed to the end with no error.

    However, I had to uninstall all the other components from Add/Removal programs so that I can installl SEE 11.1.0 compoments, such as, management agent, drive encryption, helpdek, etc.
