Hi,
Can you quickly confirm below:
- does any of the params like root password, username passed during controller installtion are differnet from primary controller install args and have any special args?
- also check whether you are running as controller installed as "Run as administator"
I execute controller_64bit_windows-4.1.1.2.exe with "Run as administator" without any special args just click on it and install with same credentials as I use on Primary Controller.
I tried install it without "Run as administator" and got the same error.
Hi,
Can you rerun (run in elevanted prompt) as below post making sure no port (say 49948) or the user running controller have permissions to open such large port numbers and see how it goes:
cmd> controller.exe -Djava.io.tmpdir=C:\Users\DrazzEn\Temp\
[ERROR] com.install4j.runtime.beans.actions.control.RunScriptAction [ID 359]: Initial Account/Admin User creation failed due to unknown error: Can't get http://127.0.0.1:49948/controller/createAccount?auto=true&name=customer1&displayName=customer1&accou... to C:\Users\DrazzEn\AppData\Local\Temp\2\create_account_143834397611560478618431.tmp
Though I am not in the habbit of beating dead horses, I'm bumping this Thread anyway, as I seem to have come across the same problem. My attempt at installing AppDynamics V4.1.1.2 64bit on a maiden Windows Server 2008 R2 failed with a "Initial Account/Admin User creation failed!" message, followed by a "Failed to create Controller admin user! Setup will now quit!" dialogue.
Full disclosure here:
What irks me most is that I can't tell for sure if the "Controller admin user" is an OS-User or a user in the context AppDynamics that couldn't be created and if there was perhaps a root cause to that problem. (E.g.: Couldn't connect to userDB -> Failed to create Controller admin user").
Any insight into this would be quite helpful. The Log files I found and studied where rather inconclusive and didn't offer any answers as to that end.
I have the same problem installing secondary node on CentOS 7.2. The controller version is 4.2.0.2.
I was getting this in appserver/glassfish/domains/domain1/logs/server.log until I removed the $ and semicolon from my password.
