Hi Patrik,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It looks like the installer does not install the vcredist x64
2010 version and fails to detect it correctly. After I
downloaded the vcredist x64 2010 and installed it the erlan
win64 installation worked. I see the bin directory! Plus the
app that uses erlang is working with the erlang win64 installed.</div>

RIght - we probably need to update the vcredist shipped to a newer
version then. I'll look into that for the R15B03 release. I think I
have enough information to reproduce, just need to set up a blank
2012 server to test on... sigh...<br>
<br>
I'll get back to you if I have problems reproducing!<br>

Thanks for the report and the help!<br>

<div>Hi!<br>
<br>
Actually Win 2012 should already have the libraries
installed, I wonder what's wrong...<br>
<br>
Could you try installing the vcredist manually (download
from <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14632"
target="_blank">http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14632</a>)
and see if anything gets better? <br>
<br>
The bin directory not being populated indicates that
Install.exe in the top erlang installation dir could not
be run. Could you also try to run that from a command
line and see if it says something interesting (like "i
cannot find the dll's, i'm a very sad windows exe" or
something...). It gets run by the installer at the end
to copy some files, it may be silent if it fails to
start...<br>
<br>
When installing, you get a log window (that you can see
if clicking the "Show details" button when files are
expanded). If you run the x64 installation, with
documentation unchecked, klick show details, wait until
the installation is done, then rightclick the log and
select "Copy details to clipboard", you can then paste
the log in a mail and send it to me (<a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:pan@erlang.org"
target="_blank">pan@erlang.org</a>). If we're lucky,
it might contain a hint about why Install.exe is not run
or what happens to the x64 vcredist installer.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

<div class="h5"> Hello,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a freshly created Windows 2012 x64
server with GUI. The first application to install
was erlang. It appears the win64 installer fails
to install all of the files required for erlang
OTP R15B02. The win32 installer works.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am using
the otp_win64_R15B02_with_MSVCR100_installer_fix.exe
installer and the 32bit version. Below is more
details about what happened.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1.
Ran otp_win64_R15B02_with_MSVCR100_installer_fix.exe
as administrator. It found the C runtime library
was not installed but it didn't prompt or run the
installer for the c runtime library. The
installer continued without error. The path
"c:\program files\erl5.9.2 exists but the sub
folder "bin" did not exist. It appears the win64
installer didn't install all files.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. Uninstalled win64. No errors given during
uninstallation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>3.
Ran otp_win32_R15B02_with_MSVCR100_installer_fix.exe
as administrator. It found the c runtime library
was not installed. It prompted and installed the
runtime and the rest of the installer went without
error. The win32 version worked.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thinking the c runtime library installation was
the issue...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>4. Uninstalled win32. No errors given during
uninstallation</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>5.
Ran otp_win64_R15B02_with_MSVCR100_installer_fix.exe
as administrator. The installer detected the C
runtime library was already installed and had it
unchecked in the installer. The installer then
ran and gave no errors. The path "c:\program
files\erl5.9.2 didn't contain the "bin" folder.
The win64 was incomplete.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Since then I have reinstalled the win32.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So far the issues with the installation of the
win64 is repeatable. Please let me know if there
is anything I can do to further help identify if
this is a real issue.</div>
