While Installing ProSeries Professional 2020, I got the following error:

 

" A problem occurred during installation.

Please try the following steps to see if it corrects the problem:

   Restart your computer

    Restart the installation

 

The product is empty."

 

What do I need to do?

Did you restart your computer and restart the installation process?

Thank you for your response.  Yes, I did restart several times starting from yesterday.

How are you installing it - from the 2019 program or from logging into your Intuit account?

Thank you for this effort, which I appreciated.

I tried the first link, and I got through. But when inFile Explorer tried to access C:\ProgramData\Intuit\ProSeries\Install\TY20\Logs.  There are no current longs, probably because it has not yet been installed.


Thank you for checking. There are actually two different logs, and I guessed wrong as to which one might be needed. Can you go back into FileExplorer and get this one, and then email to proseries_engineering@intuit.com?

C:\Users\{YOUR USER ID}\AppData\Local\IntuitProSeriesTY20Installer.log

Note that AppData folder might be hidden on your machine. If you can't find it, try typing

%LocalAppData% in your Windows Start Menu Search bar. That should bring it up.

 

I believe that file will have the underlying details as to what is going on. I can see where the general message is logged in our installer, but I can't find where the specific error you are seeing is coming from. I'm hoping this log has more info.
