I’ve been installing and configuring Weblogic 10.3.6 & 12c (recently) and came across a peculiar issue, where the reports server failing to map the keys I’ve specified with cgicmd.dat file.
The best I could recollect from my memories was, I only added the keys to a single instance of cgicmd.dat file, as there are many instances of the same file once after classic domains are created.
Under linux installations you will find the file in 3 different locations once after the domain created and WLS_REPORTS server started.
With my latest installations of 12c & 11g, I had issue getting the keys mapped properly & after loads and loads of googling I decided to add the same key to all available instances of cgicmd.dat one after another.
So I started with the first instance of cgicmd.dat file, that was found under
which is WLS_REPORTS temporary folder. I added the key, restarted the WLS_REPORTS server & the key was mapped as required!
This could be a nasty bug because I don’t remember adding the keys to multiple files while I tried out forms and reports 11g Release 2 almost 2 years back!
The most interesting part of the entire exercise is, once the key mapping happens successfully, you can remove the keys from cgicmd.dat file that in the temporary location and everything works! Could be the magic of cache
So if you come across key mapping issues, you know where to look at for a quick fix.
which is yet to receive any answers. We were in the same situation and started our experiments to find a solution.
Without boring you with details, here is the complete solution
Re-configure your listener, do not delete, just re-configure using the GUI. This will re-create the Windows service for listener.
Use oradim to create a new service (Please note, this scenario is strictly for creating services while they are missing, if you want to recreate services which are already available, YOU must drop them)
just copy the init.ora.NNNNNNNNNNN file to init.ora
Now start registry edit. This is required for the situation when you will notice the database service you have just created starts, however will not mount the database.
By the right side details panel, find the key “ORA_<SID>_AUTOSTART” which will have a value “FALSE”. Change this value to “TRUE” and get back to Windows services panel and start the database service.
That’s all folks
if you are not cursed, the Oracle database service must start, mount the database without any troubles.
Hello guys, we just posted how to upgrade your existing Forms & Reporots 32Bit 11.1.2.1.0 to 11.1.2.2.0. Why don’t check it out here?
We are running a blog explaining many workaround solutions for installing and configuring discontinued, uncertified Oracle software on Windows 7 & Windows 8 from last year onward.
Let us accept it, Developer 6i applications face multiple issues while used on both Windows 7&8 like:
Intermittent crashes
Rendering menu modules
Stability
Running products like Reports and Graphs
Usually a legacy application compiled using patch sets below 18 are less prone to above mentioned issues, however an application completely developed using patch 18 regularly get into issues on Windows 7 & 8 where hacks are used.
Recently we were forced to look towards a better environment for a new application, which by certain reasons cannot be accommodated and hosted within Oracle Application entity, and we started dwelling the possibilities of setting up a Weblogic server (old application server) for our forms and reports modules.
in short, we did it! and we are sharing the experience with you.
you need the following to carryout the installation and configuration
(Hurry, you may not find the above software bundles with OTN after few weeks or months time)
Part 1 – Weblogic Server 10.3.6 Installation
Installation of Weblogic is pretty straight forward on Windows 8. Only once the compatibility issue is raised, which you can safely ignore by the click of a button.
The Weblogic 10.3.6 (wls1036_win32.exe) installation comes as a single .exe file, which you can start like any other installer.
Please have a look at the images
Choose a directory name without spaces, this is going to be your middleware home.
Uncheck the email notification, you don’t need it as far you don’t have a support from oracle
Select “Custom” installation type, as you can select which JDK to be selected and other components at later stages. We installed both JDK for our installation.
Click next to continue
Leave the selection as it is
Select Yes for “Node Manager Service”, it will make few things simpler at later stages, especially while you are using Admin Server for managing both forms and reports servers.
Select “All Users”
Clicking “Next” will start installing the Weblogic server 10.3.6 for you. Relax and wait until the installation completes.
Once installation has been done, you will be given an option to setup the Weblogic server with an instance, which we will do as a part of Forms & Reports 11g installation and configuration.
Part 2 – Installation ofOracle Forms and Reports 11g Release 2
Once you download the Oracle Forms and Reports 11g Release 2, the zip archive must be unzipped to a folder, which will create Disk1, Disk2, Disk3 folders. You should start the “Setup.exe” from Disk1 folder. Once again the installation is straight forward, without requiring to make any specific hack to the installation media.
You must skip the “Software Update” option, unless you have the paid support from Oracle for the product you are installing.
Most important: You should select “Install Software – Do not configure” at this level, as the configuration will be done once after the installation completed.
On Windows 8 you will be notified about two vital check failures, however allowing you to continue the installation at own risk by clicking the “Continue” button.
Next page will clearly notify you that you must have an application server already installed. Application server akka Weblogic server. Without Weblogic server you cannot use Oracle Forms and Reports 11g Release 2 even for development purpose.
You can safely ignore being updated about the software updates once again
Once you say yes to software update related prompt, the installation will start
Now you have finished installing Oracle Forms and Reports 11g Release 2 on Windows 8/Windows 2008 R2
Part 3 – Configuring the Weblogic server with forms and reports 11g
As we have installed “Node Manager Service” prior configuring the forms and reports, we need to stop the Node Manager Service from Windows services console
Invoke “services.msc” and stop the following service “Oracle Weblogic NodeManager(D_Weblogic_Middleware_wlserver_10.3)
If you don’t stop this service, you are going to come across issues as discussed here
To configure the Weblogic server for forms and reports, you need to invoke the “Configure Classic Instance” cmd file from Windows menu folder “Oracle Classic 11g – Home1”
It may take couple of minutes until you are provided the installation application GUI as shown below. Click next
Select the option “Configure for Deployment”
Unless you are entitled for Oracle support ignore the email part
Now, choose a meaningful name for your Oracle instance.
Important: You must note down the following details for future references. We opted to use the username suggested by Oracle during the configuration which is “weblogic” and provide a password consist of alphabets and minimum one digit (number)
Domain is the node which will be setup with Weblogic for Administration server as well for both Forms and Reports Servers.
By default, Developer tools are not selected, you MUST select this node, incase if you are going to use the same machine for development (which is our objective with this exercise). You may uncheck the “Clustered” option, unless used in a production environment.
Select “Auto Port Configuration”
Try to avoid using Proxy. Microsoft ISA server can make the whole experience a parody, if used.
Use Identity management, only if already implemented and business mandatory. Else leave it unchecked
Click on “Configure” button and sit back, until the process is over!
You may save the installation responses for a future installation by clicking the Save button. Click “Finish” button to exit the configuration wizard
You may run into issues accessing the Enterprise Manager, incase if you have automated the weblogic admin server startup part using services & we have another post explaining how to tackle it here
If the node manager service is installed you can start and stop various components for the domain through this console.
Part 4 – Starting and Stopping domain components AdminServer, WLS_FORMS(Forms Server), WLS_REPORTS(Reports server)
Oracle provides batch files to start and stop all the above mentioned components. You may start just WLS_FORMS and WLS_REPORTS services, unless planning to manage them through the Admin Server console.
Starting Weblogi Admin Server
Starting Forms Server
Starting Reports Server
Part 5 – Automating Weblogic Admin Server, WLS_FORMS(Forms Server), WLS_REPORTS(Reports server) startup with Windows Services
Let us agree, the cmd windows look ugly, dangerous and a user can close them down, thus bringing the entire servers down unintentionally. A windows service looks much favorable under such scenarios and wise people from Oracle do provide solutions to create windows services for
Weblogic Admin Server
WLS_FORMS (Forms Server)
WLS_REPORTS (Reports Server)
Creating Windows services for Admin Server and Forms server are pretty simple and straight forward business, while CMD command line length limitations will make Reports Server service creation a little difficult, don’t worry we have solution for it also.
Part 6 – Creating Windows Service for Weblogic Admin Server
Pre-requisite(s)
Notepad++ (or any decent text editor other than Windows notepad)
Create a .cmd file named “Install_AdminServer.cmd” with the following lines
[sourcecode language=”text” padlinenumbers=”true”]
echo off
SETLOCAL
set DOMAIN_NAME=appsdomain
set USERDOMAIN_HOME=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\user_projects\domains\appsdomain
set SERVER_NAME=AdminServer
set WL_HOME=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\wlserver_10.3
set WLS_USER=weblogic
set WLS_PW=pass123
set PRODUCTION_MODE=true
set MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx512m
call "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\installSvc.cmd"
ENDLOCAL
[/sourcecode]
Please note, you must provide the absolute domain name and physical directory names based on your installation preferences!
Save the script to “USERDOMAIN_HOME” folder, ie, “D:\WebLogic\Middleware\user_projects\domains\appsdomain” in our case
From elevated command line, execute the batch file, and the Windows service for Admin Server must be created, unless there were mismatches with the information supplied
Part 7 – Creating Windows Service for WLS_FORMS(Forms Server)
Create a .cmd file “InstallWLS_FORMS.cmd” using Notepad++ with following lines
[sourcecode language=”text”]
echo off
SETLOCAL
set DOMAIN_NAME=appsdomain
set USERDOMAIN_HOME=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\user_projects\domains\appsdomain
set SERVER_NAME=WLS_FORMS
set WL_HOME=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\wlserver_10.3
set WLS_USER=weblogic
set WLS_PW=pass123
set PRODUCTION_MODE=true
set ADMIN_URL=http://localhost:7001
cd %USERDOMAIN_HOME%
call %USERDOMAIN_HOME%\bin\setDomainEnv.cmd
rem *** call "D:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\server\bin\installSvc.cmd"
call "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\installSvc.cmd"
ENDLOCAL
[/sourcecode]
Save the script to “USERDOMAIN_HOME” folder, ie, “D:\WebLogic\Middleware\user_projects\domains\appsdomain” in our case
From elevated command line, execute the batch file, and the Windows service for WLS_FORMS must be created, unless there were mismatches with the information supplied
Part 8 – Creating Windows Service for WLS_REPORTS(Reports Server)
Create a .cmd file “InstallWLS_REPORTS.cmd” using Notepad++ with following lines
[sourcecode language=”text”]
SETLOCAL
set DOMAIN_NAME=appsdomain
set USERDOMAIN_HOME=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\user_projects\domains\appsdomain
set SERVER_NAME=WLS_REPORTS
set WL_HOME=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\wlserver_10.3
set WLS_USER=weblogic
set WLS_PW=pass123
set PRODUCTION_MODE=true
set ADMIN_URL=http://localhost:7001
cd %USERDOMAIN_HOME%
call %USERDOMAIN_HOME%\bin\setDomainEnv.cmd
rem *** call "D:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\server\bin\installSvc.cmd"
call "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\installSvc.cmd"
ENDLOCAL
[/sourcecode]
Unfortunately, you cannot just run the .cmd file and create a service for WLS_REPORTS like other services, as the java CLASSPATH for reports server has more than 3000 character length, which is beyond 32Bit command line architecture.
Hence you have to do a minor hack, as provided as a solution by Oracle.
Go to “D:\WebLogic\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\server\bin” folder (equivalent on your machine) and make a backup for the file “InstallSvc.cmd”
If the report server is running, terminate it by using Ctrl+C within the open cmd window
Wait until the server shutdown. Check the status through Admin Console.
Now restart the Report Server, using the menu interface
Mark and copy the CLASSPATH= output and paste it to a new text document. You have to spend few minutes to wrap up the text and make sure the entire text is wrapped into a single line (This is why we love Notepad++)
Add “set” in front of CLASSPATH= and your txt file content should look something like below and save the text file as “myClasspath.txt”
[sourcecode language=”text”]
set CLASSPATH=D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jdbc\lib\ojdbc6.jar;;;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\ORACLE~1\modules\oracle.jdbc_11.1.1\ojdbc6dms.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\patch_wls1036\profiles\default\sys_manifest_classpath\weblogic_patch.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\JROCKI~1.0-1\lib\tools.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\WLSERV~1.3\server\lib\weblogic_sp.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\WLSERV~1.3\server\lib\weblogic.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\modules\features\weblogic.server.modules_10.3.6.0.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\WLSERV~1.3\server\lib\webservices.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\modules\ORGAPA~1.1/lib/ant-all.jar;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\modules\NETSFA~1.0_1/lib/ant-contrib.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\weblogic.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.dms_11.1.1\dms.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jmx_11.1.1\jmxframework.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jmx_11.1.1\jmxspi.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.odl_11.1.1\ojdl.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\lib\adf-share-mbeans-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\lib\mdswlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\auditwlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\jps-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\jrf-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\oamap_help.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\oamAuthnProvider.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\ossoiap_help.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\ossoiap.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\sslconfigwlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\wsm-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\weblogic.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\opmn\lib\nonj2eembeans.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jdbc\lib\ojdbc6.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\opmn\lib\optic.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\opmn\lib\iasprovision.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\lib\adf-share-mbeans-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\lib\mdswlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\auditwlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\jps-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\jrf-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\oamap_help.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\oamAuthnProvider.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\ossoiap_help.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\ossoiap.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\sslconfigwlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\common\wlst\resources\wsm-wlst.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.adf.share_11.1.1\commons-el.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jlib\dfc.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\dvt\lib\dvt-jclient.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\dvt\lib\dvt-utils.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\jlib\ewt3.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.iau_11.1.1\fmw_audit.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\oui\jlib\http_client.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.idm_11.1.1\identitystore.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.idm_11.1.1\identityutils.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jps_11.1.1\jaccprovider.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jps_11.1.1\jacc-spi.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\ord\jlib\jai_codec.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\ord\jlib\jai_core.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.oc4j-obsolete_11.1.1\jazn.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.oc4j-obsolete_11.1.1\jazncore.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\jlib\jewt4.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jlib\jta.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\modules\oracle.ldap_11.1.1\ldapjclnt11.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\lib\mail.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jlib\netcfg.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jlib\oracle_ice.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\oracle_common\jlib\share.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jlib\zrclient.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\aolj.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\confmbean.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\runtimembean.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\rwadmin.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\rwenv.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\rwrun.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\reports\jlib\rwxdo.jar;D:\WebLogic\Middleware\Oracle_FRHome1\jlib\rts2.jar;;D:\WebLogic\MIDDLE~1\ORACLE~1\soa\modules\

[/sourcecode]
Now open the “InstallSvc.cmd” using Notepad++ and locate the line “set CLASSPATH=%WEBLOGIC_CLASSPATH%;%CLASSPATH%” and comment the same like
rem *** set CLASSPATH=%WEBLOGIC_CLASSPATH%;%CLASSPATH%
Now locate the line “set CMDLINE” within the “InstallSvc.cmd” and change the line like following
There are two instances of set CMDLINE, you must change both lines, only replacing the “-classpath \”%CLASSPATH%\” part with -classpath @d:\myClasspath.txt
After the above, from elevated command line, execute the batch file, and the Windows service for WLS_REPORTS must be created, unless there were mismatches with the information supplied
Change “Automatic” to “Manual” for better ease, at various situations. You may create a .cmd file for starting the services and another one for stopping them.
From our prospects, these services are just a facelift for the batch files, avoiding the immediate problems with accidental closure of cmd windows and thus causing serious issues to the instance. We came to this conclusion because, the service status are not updated incase if one of the services stopped by the Admin Server console at later stages, neither the service status update waits until the actual server starts to update state of the service.
You can delete whole these service from command prompt, after stopping like following
>SC DELETE “service name”
We hope you will enjoy setting up Weblogic 10.3.6 and Oracle Forms and Reports 11g Release 2 on Windows 8/ Windows 2008 R2 following the instruction set provided above.
31st October 2019 (Final note on the topic, most probably)
As Windows 10 is maturing, Oracle Developer 10g 32Bit is having regular issues, most probably due to dynamic link libraries and function calls those are NOT any more existing or compatible. As we continue using Oracle E-Business Suite R12 with 0 plans to migrate as on date, the ONLY ONE solution left for us was to move the development stack to Windows XP Virtual Machines, on which the Developer Suite works as intended.
Please note, we don’t have solution for you, if you are trying to install Oracle database 10.1.x.x on Windows 7 or Windows 8. We apologize for a bit confusing title for this particular post which says “Install 10g onwards…” which is not literally true! Our tested database version was 10.2.0.3 and we were having the impression that all 10g releases had the same architecture.
We tried around a couple of dozen times to install 10.1.0.2 database on both Windows 7 (32/64bit) and on Windows 8, and every time the results were futile and we are resigning from future attempts :)
*Update* 11.Dec.2011
*Update* 13.Nov.2012
We are limiting this workaround method for Oracle Database versions 10.2.x.x and above, as one recent lab test proved that 10.1.x.x installation on Windows 7 never completing successfully. Run under compatibility mode set as OS version 5.1 (Windows XP Professional), failed to create database during the installation process, throwing Oracle error “ORA-12546”
This error looks like the same issues we had with Database 9i setup in the lab, apparently without any solutions. So, we guess it is time to move on :)
*Update* 21.Nov.2012
Looks like we are always on to the subject :) Anyway for those who guys have access to Oracle support, there is a happy news. The frequent crash experienced by Developer 10g forms are addressed to a greater level with an upgrade to 10.1.2.3.0 (patch number 5983622)
Noticed changes
Forms doesn’t crash while opening form modules which are referring views, database objects like packages, procedures and functions WHILE NOT connected to database (Provided, minimum one time the forms developer was connected to the database, until a restart). Speaking English. Start developer 10g(patched), connect to database. Close forms developer and start it again, try to open forms modules without connecting to database until the computer restarts, you shouldn’t experience crashes.
Quicker start-up, and the interface is ready to serve much faster than 10.1.2.0.2
Installation has an option to override required OS version with y/n prompt
PART I (Install Oracle 10g on Windows 7)
Almost after more than year time, We still receive requests asking for assistance with installing Oracle 10g database while Oracle has 11g release 2 in place. We do understand why many need Oracle 10g against the latest released database and we confirm our claim once again YOU CAN INSTALL Oracle 10g on Windows 7 (Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional etc)
Though I believe the maximum number Oracle applications are accessed through Microsoft Windows clients, when the cooperation comes in, Oracle and Microsoft behave like sisters in a fight and the end users suffer!
As a Oracle developer it is my primary requirement to have a local database running from my laptop/desktop, having the oracle development tools properly installed and once I started with Windows 7, apparently failed miserably to get the Oracle stuff installed properly on Windows 7.
It took me almost 6 or more months to come against another wordpress blog where a user has posted a fix and frankly it WORKS
Before checking the workaround check what Chris F has to say
“Thanks. This was helpful. I noticed when installing the 10.2.0.4 server that even after changing the refhost.xml file, I was still getting the same version check errors. I then had to go into the “install/oraparam.ini” file and change the certified version comma-delimited list there. After that, the installer was happier.”
here is the work around.
Example, go to this folder “E:\Installers\Oracle_10g_1023\Disk1\stage\prereq\db”
locate the file “refhost.xml”, open it with notepad
Now run the Oracle installer and you would see the installation completes without giving any errors.
PART II (Install Developer Suite 10g on Windows 7)
Step 1 Setup Virtual Memory
Depending upon actual memory available with your computer, setup virtual memory. You can go upto double the size of actual memory while setting up your virtual memory. Please refer to the image(s) below
You would be asked to restart the computer and please restart.
Step 2 Setting up the Developer Suite 10g installer
Open the Disk 1 folder and locate “Setup.exe’
Right click “Setup.exe” and change the compatibility to Windows XP Service Pack 2 or 3
Step 3 Install Developer Suite 10g
Double click and start the installation, if you already have Sp1 installed and running latest Java runtime, you may come across PSAPI.DLL errors a number of times, caused by a function call missing information. You can safely ignore the warning messages and complete the installation.
