Cannot install VisualSVN Server - error creating temporary file - Win 7

I'm on Windows 7 64 bit. Every time I try to install the latest version of VisualSVN Server (3.3.1) I get an error saying it could not create any temporary files.

I really can't figure out what's causing this error. I am installing as an administrator.

Here is a link to the installation logs.

Any help would be appreciated!

Solution

  • The full error is:

    MSI (s) (F8!A8) [13:29:08:907]: Product: VisualSVN Server 3.3.1 -- Error 25000. Custom action InstallWMISchemaExecute failed: Error creating temporary file (0x8004402F)

    The 0x8004402F is Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) specific error code:

    So you have some issues with WMI on your computer. Suggested actions to troubleshoot this issue:

    • run sfc /scannow command
    • remove all files in C:\Windows\Temp directory
    • remove all files in %TEMP% directory
    • check that LOCAL SYSTEM account has full access to 'C:\Windows\Temp\ directory
