I'm getting the following message at the end of the installation (Patching files ...): "Unable to configure application server (Ant execution)". Does anyone know how to solve it?

I'm having the same issue.  Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter, MariaDB 10.2.8, there is another Tomcat installation, but I stopped it and tried again after the first time I got this error.  Extract from install log:

Hi Angelo.

- Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise

- I have more than one JDK, but I configured the path of JAVA_HOME to "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\jre". (64bit)

- I also had the environment variable ANT_HOME, but I deleted it.

- There are other Tomcats installed, but none running on port 8080.

- The installer spends a lot of time, more than 5 minutes, in the "Updating database...". Is this normal?

Thanks for helping.

Hi Bruno,
the installation process take a long time because it restore FOODMART db, this is a database used by the document examples.
ANT is not mandatory,
Can you provide me the MySql version ?

Best Regards
Angelo.

Hi,

MySQL Server 5.7.

Does the installer generate any log files?

Thanks.

Hi!

Try to run the installer as administrator.

It worked for me on windows 2012 r2, mySQL 5.7, jdk 1.8.
