Hi here,
Hope you all have a good day!

We are trying to install couchbase on our VM and this error occurs:

And here is the log from the installation:

Couchbase installation version: 5.1.0, and 6.0.0.1693
Hardware specs:
Windows Server 2016 vs 1607 (OS Build 14393.2724)
8 GB of memory
2 Cores of Xeon E5-2690
62 GB free of 79.5 GB

And this is the first installation. We have not installed any version of Couchbase before. After the installation failed there has a Couchbase Service stopped in the services.msc. We have removed it by Admin level CLI, also kill the erl.exe before start new installation. But still no success.

Please give me advice on this.

Thanks so much.

I’m looking into this, but in the meantime, there is version 6.0.1 of the Enterprise Edition (EE) - could you try downloading and installing that? Also, do you have another Windows Server 2016 environment you can try it on?

Ok, I was able to download and install CB EE 5.1.3 on a fresh install of Windows Server 2016, OS build 14393.970, very similar hardware specs to yours (8GB RAM, 2-core CPU), bare metal installation (no VMs, no Docker containers). Then I uninstalled it and installed CB EE 6.0.1 without any issues.
I believe our solutions engineer will be in touch with you tomorrow to help resolve the issue. I would start with a different Windows Server 2016 instance.
