    Post the SEP_INST.log file and SIS_INST.log files.

    Refer to this article:

    What logs do I need to gather in order to troubleshoot a failed SEP 12.1 client installation?

    The other thing you can try to do is install the unmanaged version from the download ISO to see if it will install. If it does, you can replace the sylink to make it managed.
