    Hi Stefan,

     

    Have you previously installed the CA Spectrum 10.1 release?

    The CA Spectrum 10.1.2 can only be installed on top of either 10.1 or 10.1.1 releases.

     

    Thanks,

    Silvio

    Silvio, i just tried to install Spectrum version 10.01.01.00 and i can see the same inactive link. i could install in both versions the sradmin.

     

    do you have any other idea what the rootcause could be?

     

    it's centos v7.

     

    thank you, stefan

    Hi Stefan,

     

    Why are trying to install 10.1.1 release now? Don't you want to install 10.1.2 release?

     

    Did you check the content of the following files?

     

    $SPECROOT/Install-Tools/.history file: (example from my machine)

    10.1.0.0.237 04/05/2016 15:19
    10.1.1.0.64 04/05/2016 16:11

     

    $SPECROOT/Install-Tools/.install_history file (example from my machine)

    10.1.0.0.237 04/05/2016 15:19 ,,SUCCESS
    10.1.1.0.64 04/05/2016 16:11 ,,SUCCESS

     

    Thanks,

    Silvio

    i can install 10.1.2 as well, but i dont have Install-Tools/ folder at all. what i have after installing the sradmin is only $SPECROOT/SRAdmin in the $SPECROOT folder.

     

    thanks, stefan

    Hi Stefan,

     

    If you don't have the $SPECROOT/Install-Tools/ folder, then you have not installed the CA Spectrum 10.1 yet.

    First install 10.1 and then install 10.1.1 release.

     

    Thanks,

    Silvio

    If you have already installed 10.1 or 10.1.1 then make sure that the path to the 10.1.2 executable does not contain a folder name that has a space in it. 

    Cheers
