Thank you for your responses. We were able to resolve this issue by editing the deploywiz.ini file as follows: Navigate to the SAS Software Depot in the Products folder. In the deploywiz__99999__prt__xx__sp0__1 folder (99999 varies, depending on the SAS release), find deploywiz.ini. For example, the default path is path-to-your-depot\products\deploywiz_99999_prt_xx_sp1. Your deploywiz folder might have a different name. Make a copy of the deploywiz.ini file and then open it for editing. Note: WordPad works nicely for editing the deploywiz.ini. In the file, locate the host sections [wx6] for x64. In the LAUNCHERARGS= parameter for both host sections, change the value from -Xmx1024M to -Xmx512M. Save the file and then run setup.exe again to restart the installation. After the installation, change the settings back to 1024 Once these edits were made, setup.exe ran normally and the install was a success. ... View more

We are downloading the compressed install files from a university website to the machine's hard drive, unzipping the install files, then calling Help Desk so a technician can remote-in with admin privileges (it is a government owned machine) to run the install. It is a cumbersome process. ... View more

While the problem described in this note sounds similar to ours, the solution, editing the deploywiz.ini. file was not possible, or I don't know how to do it properly. Opening the file in WordPad and NotePad results in a mass of ASCI characters, not editable text. The instructions for making these changes from a DOS command line appear incomplete, also. ...

SAS 9.4 installation failure

We are trying to install SAS 9.4, 64-bit, on a Windows 10 (Enterprise 18363) machine. When the setup.exe is launched (a help desk worker with admin rights has to remote in to run the install for the user) the initial install splash screen appears, disappears, and then does nothing. We have waited more than 10 minutes, checked in task manager to see is any SAS processes are running, and there is nothing active. This has happened repeatedly, after rebooting the machine, and after re-downloading the install files. We are at a complete loss as to what to do now. ... View more
