i have the same error :S

i´ll let you know if i solve this soon

I have been able to get the prerequisite validation to pass. I was fortunate to have a duplicate server. So I had somewhere to copy these files from. But what I found was the installing 4.5 will remove the previous .NET version files (This is on the KB for 4.5). So I had to copy the "gacutil.exe" and gacutil.exe.config" files to the following locations:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin

and

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin\NETFX4.0 Tools

Leaving a copy of these files in each location fulfilled the validation.

thats the only solution you found? jeje i dont have those files so i am still looking for the validation to pass :S

as Zach said, replacing these files

cid-5ae3f43b1d873a75.office.live.com/.../gacutil.zip

into this paths:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin

and

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin\NETFX4.0 Tools

it would pass the validation process.

Worked like charming , thanks

I have just the folowwing error "Gacutil utility for registering .NET 3.5 assembly".

And the workaround is not working for me.

Greets,

Installing On Windows 2012 and i get the following any ideas?

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

<configuration>

   <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

I too have the validation pre-req failure on "Gacutil utility for registering .NET 4.0 assembly" when trying to install the AOS component on the AOS server.

I have copied the gacutil and gacutil.exe.config into the following paths:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin

and

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin\NETFX4.0 Tools

But still get the error.  Any help would be gratefully recieved

Hi Neil,

I had to make sure there was a space in between "NETFX" and "4.0" in my path:

  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\"

I have also seen other users report slightly different paths, so you could try these if the above doesn't work:

   "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0a\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\"

   "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools\"

Also note that if you installed the SDK on a different drive (other than C), it may be checking for the gacutil on that drive.

Good luck!
