Unfortunately, we don't find c:/progra~2/thingw~1.1/installer/foundation/local-mode-cache/cache/chef-stacktrace.out.

 

By seeing ThingWorxFoundation_install.log file,

[02:40:17] - Valid Java executable path: C:/Program Files/Java/jdk-11.0.13/bin/java.exe...

[02:40:17] - HOST_JAVA_HOME path: C:\PROGRA~1\Java\JDK-11~1.13...

That system environment variable JAVA path referring jdk 1.8. But, installer taking jdk 11. 

So, i uninstalled java 11 and tried. Installed Thingworx 8.5.1 with installer.

If you look in the foundation- log, you'll see these 2 lines:

Stacktrace dumped to c:/progra~2/thingw~1.1/installer/foundation/local-mode-cache/cache/chef-stacktrace.out
[2022-12-23T02:45:23-08:00] FATAL: Please provide the contents of the stacktrace.out file if you file a bug report

 

It is documented in the Support Articles that you'd need to check that file in order to understand what went wrong.

(Since 9.3.3 for example, I had a very strange behavior when the upgrade failed because the powershell script files we use for this were not digitally signed, so I needed to modify the Execution Policy to remove this restriction - only then it worked).

In your case it can be anything, but you need to find the root cause first.
