node-js 10.0.0 msi installer ended prematurely #20538
Comments
/cc @nodejs/platform-windows |
Extract from log:
Similar problems have been reported in the past, please have a look at this (incomplete) list. |
It might be performance counters once again:
See issues such as #4329, please try installing with performance counters disabled if you can. |
@laundmo Did you solve the problem? |
im sorry @tniessen , i forgot about this whole thing. i tried installing without performance counters but it didnt seem to change anything, still rolling back at the end. log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vk0hEVYnCHJ_cK1BoCPva_RGzHvwE2KP/view?usp=sharing |
Same issue on Windows 10 x64 version 1803 trying to install Node 8.11.1. Turned off "Performance counters" and "Event tracing (ETW)" under Node.js runtime during the install and it installed successfully. |
Still seems to be related to ETW:
Please try disabling event tracing as well. Thanks for the hint, @wesleytabaka. |
@tniessen i tried disabling ETW and it worked. thank you. because the problem still exists, i would like to ask to keep this issue open. |
According to #4329 (comment) (and my own experience) antivirus (Avast) may be the culprit. |
Avast antivirus ended up being my issue with this |
@laundmo Can you confirm this issue was related to Avast / other antivirus software? |
installing without ETW and Performance Counters worked. using the installer to the ETW and Performance Counter modules with Avast deactivated worked seems like avast is the problem |
As this issue emerges rather often, should we add some note/FAQ/etc somewhere about the Avast impact and maybe reach out to the Avast developers? cc @nodejs/platform-windows |
@vsemozhetbyt I already reached out to Avast, let's see whether they respond. |
Ahh, finally! Same 1603 error here. Stopped Avast for 10 minutes, and the install worked fine - Performance counter and ETW both enabled. |
Response from Avast:
|
I can also confirm that Avast was the problem on my machine as well. |
This is a few months old, but for anybody else visiting here who doesn't have Avast, the issue for me was resolved by rebooting my machine. |
Given the lack of a follow up and all the reports about Avast, I'm going to close this out. Doesn't seem like there's much actionable here. |
when trying to install node.js from the msi installer i get the message that the installer ended prematurely. there are no other error messages popping up.
