GP 2013 Business Analyzer Package Creation fails`

Posted on by Richard Wheeler 75,852 Moderator

I just tried to create my first GP 2013 Business Analyzer package file and right after I specify the shared folder name and report server URL, I get this message:

"business analyzer package installation ended prematurely"

There is nothing in the event viewer.

Business Analyzer is running and I can launch it as a program and see reports. I just cannot create the BA package file.

    Thanks for using the forums! I know you post here a lot, and I'm finally glad I have an answer for you on this one. The way I remember this working was you couldn't have BA installed on the machine you were creating the installer package on. Please try uninstalling BA, or moving to a "clean" machine. You should be able to create the BA Installer package then.

    Good luck!

    Looks like the documentation needs to be updated to tell you this. You are correct. Since an internet search did not turn up anyhting on this I am wondering if anyone uses Business Analyzer. Thanks for the tip.
