Hello, 

Sorry to create a new thread for this error. I checked the previous threads available for the 8.3 installation fails and it didn't show a solution for my error. I get the following error during installation of ThingWorx Trial 8.3

"Problem running post-install  step. Installation may not complete correctly. Error running.\\check-http-response --username "Administrator" --password **** --hostname "localhost" --hostport "8080" --useSSL=0: 1"

 

Solution for this would be highly helpful. Thanks in advance.

Attached the log for reference.

Hello.

 

Looking through the log provided I wonder if the actual source of error is this:

 

The JAVA_HOME environment variable is not defined correctly
This environment variable is needed to run this program
NB: JAVA_HOME should point to a JDK not a JRE

 

You should check the value of that environment variable and be sure it is set correctly.

 

Thanks,

Hello Craig,

 

Thanks for the solution. It solved my issue. I was misled with the installation video which showed that the environment variable should be directed to a JRE.
