Solved: APIC-EM installation failure

danank061 · ‎10-12-2023

Hello!

I am a networking student, and for a projct I've been testing some networking and SDN solution, of them is Cisco APIC-EM. I tried to install it on VMWare Workstation Player with minimum requirements for testing and it worked. However, when I try to install it on a server with the following specs, it fails showing the attached error:

Host OS: Windows server 2012

RAM: 64 GB

Storage: 512 GB - SSD

Therefore, I am wondering if someone faced the same issue, or could help, I would be grateful.

Finally I was able to resolve the issue. It turned out that the organization's firewall was blocking some file during the installation. Just allow the IP address through the firewall.

Hello,

So, initially I was trying to install the 1.3 version. Then, I tried installing the 1.6 version on an ESXi server and it worked.

I tried to install it again on the same server, however I am facing the same error again.
