First had the issue with installing, but go around that following the command line install method here.
https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/accelerator-install-requires-uac-be-turned
Once that is done, the client installs without issue. However, once the client is started - it sees the instance it needs to talk to, but upon attempting to connect it fails and closes out the client. This error is seen in the application log.
Faulting application name: AcceleratorClient.exe, version: 10.0.4.1060, time stamp: 0x51d5b819
Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 6.1.7601.18409, time stamp: 0x53159a86
Exception code: 0xe053534f
Fault offset: 0x0000c42d
Faulting process id: 0x%9
Faulting application start time: 0x%10
Faulting application path: %11
Faulting module path: %12
Report Id: %13
That points to this document

However, 3 installs and even turning of UAC later I'm still at the same place.
Any help?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello, mstawchansky;
You've not provided an update in over a month, so I'm hoping you've been able to work through this issue to get it successfully resolved. If not, here is some additional information that may be of help.
As you mentioned, the client installation was successful. That is seen in the intallation log that you provided. The log shows the folder containing the installation '.msi' file is 'C:\DA\' and that the installation file is named 'Symantec Enterprise Vault Discovery Accelerator Client.msi'. The installation path is 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault Discovery Accelerator\', which tells me that you're using the command line to install the DA Client using the TARGETDIR argrument. I also see that you're using the ALLUSERS=1 argument so that any user of the machine can launch the DA Client.
The report also tells me that
1. you are installing the DA 10.0.4 Client. If you have any cumulative hotfix (CHF) installed on the DA server, you'll need to install that CHF's version of the DA Client.
2. it appears that you may be using roaming profiles, such as being logged onto a Citrix server. Please note that we don't officially support the DA Client installation on a Citrix (or Terminal Services) server as there can be other issues experienced with such an installation.
If you've not been able to resolve this issue successfully, please provide us with the client trace log so we can see if there are any errors thrown into it when the client crashes. Let us know if you need the location of that client trace log, please.

What version of DA did you upgrade from?
Does this happen for all clients?
Can you open the DA Client on the DA Server?
03-31-2015 07:32 AM
Upgraded from version 10.0.2.1043
New version is 10.0.4.1060.
This appears to happen for the majority of clients, I have one Domain Admin who appears to have a working client on his laptop.
Upgrading the client on the DA server produced the same problem. Clients are Windows 7 for remote, the DA server is Windows 2008 R2 SP1.

Can you do the installation whilst creating a log file? Use something like this:
msiexec /I "<path_to_MSI_installer>\Symantec Enterprise Vault Discovery Accelerator Client.msi" ALLUSERS=1 /L*v C:\ClientInstallLog.log
03-31-2015 01:31 PM
Yep, done. What should I look to grep out for in it?
03-31-2015 05:14 PM
If you can, attach it to your reply here. If not, you want to look for any warnings or errors.

Does the Fresh install works?
As per http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?pag...
you need to reinstall the client, did you try that ?
04-02-2015 08:20 AM
Thanks, here you go.

Fresh install doesn't work.
Multiple times, different hosts. I did just try downloading the ISO again and getting a fresh copy of the client. No go still.
04-02-2015 08:28 PM
Are you trying to install in a terminal service enviornment ? Did you try the silent install option .?
It seems there is an issue with the installer package , could try downloading it again .
04-03-2015 09:39 AM
It would seem from the previous post that the OP has tried that and the issue persists.
At this point, I would suggest opening a case with Symantec directly.
