Overview

Sometimes when you install idemeum desktop agent you might experience installation errors on certain machines. This typically happens when you do not have sufficient permissions to install idemeum agent, the idemeum service is blocked when starting, security software is interfering, etc. In order to help you diagnose these issues, we created diagnostic scripts to identify the root cause of the problem.

​
Service installation failure

You execute the agent install, and it fails with error 1603. Then you open idemeum_install.log and observe the following: 
MSI (s) (E0:80) [08:16:56:573]: Product: Idemeum Desktop Client -- Error 1920. Service 'Idemeum Service' (IDMService.exe) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.
This means idemeum service is not able to start successfully. Run this in PowerShell as Administrator. 
Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope Process -Force; Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://asset.idemeum.com/desktoplogin/idemeumServiceCheckUtility.ps1 -OutFile "idemeumServiceCheckUtility.ps1"; .\idemeumServiceCheckUtility.ps1
