Cannot Install SQL Search

ArrowTom

Hello,

I cannot install SQL Search. When I try, it gets to 99%, hangs for a while, and then returns the following error.

1 Item could not be installed.
- SQL Search 3.6
MSI returned failure code 1603: Fatal error during installation.
Service 'Redgate Client' (RedGateClient) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services

I've been searching for a while, but I keep getting results for users with other products having this issue after it has already been installed, not during in the installation.

It turned out that even though my account was set to administrator, I did not have admin permissions. Corporate IT fixed the permissions and I was able to successfully install SQL Search.
