This workaround is for cases when the installation package i.e. etl-setup.exe does start but the graphical installer does not. In the case of the installation package for the Staging Area Generator this means that you see a command/DOS window opens but closes immediately.

The reasons why that the installation package does not may be:

• the installation package was damaged when uploading/downloading
• not all parts of a multi-part the installation packages have been downloaded/unzipped together
• permission problems
• not possible for the installation program to create folders on C-drive
• the computer have problems with jar-files

1. Copy the folder C:\IMSMAETLTool from another computer where the installation worked.
2. Create a shortcut on the desktop.
3. Create a shortcut in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\IMSMA.

   Values for the shortcuts

   Target = C:\IMSMAETLTool\bin\etl.exe

   Start in = C:\IMSMAETLTool

   Icon = %SystemDrive%\IMSMAETLTool\icons\new_IMSMAin24.ico

4. Start the Staging Area Generator.
5. To fully test if it works well then use the script in C:\IMSMAETLTool\sqlscripts.
6. If there is no error messages and the generation of the database starts then all is fine.
