First Time Windchill Installation

Hi This is my first time trying to install Windchill, so I am sure I my issue is a simple mistake, but I have been struggling to find out the cause and need some insight or resources that can point me in the right direction.

 

I am trying to install Windchill 12.0.0.

 

I am trying to do the install on a VM with a Windows server 2016 datacenter Evaluation (I am using a trial license, I don’t know if this matters).

I have Java 15 installed and run the setup file with the following command in powershell:

When I do this I receive the following error.

Attached are the log files associated with this error

I also have java 1.8 update 202 installed.

When I run the install with this version of java I receive the following

I also get the above error when I use Jdk-11.0.7 which was recommended in the software matrix for windchill 12.0.0.0

 

I am sure it is a simple thing that I missed or didn’t do right.

 

Anyways, if you have any insight that would be awesome.

I just right click on the Setup.vbs file from File Explorer and select Run As Administrator.

For some reason the "Run as Administrator" option doesn't come up when I right-click it.

what I have been doing is running powershell as admin then running it from there. Is that the same thing?

Windchill 12 requires both Java 1.8 and 1.11.

Both need to be selected from the PSI also.

So I have Java 1.8 update 202 installed,

how do I get the PSI to select both?

I get there error at the loading screen that appears after the language selection.

is there a way I can do it with powershell or cmd?

 

I feel like I'm over complicating this
