I am trying to install the student version of Revit 2012 on windows 7 and I through the serial number part, but as it installing, it just aborts. When I look at the installation log, I see errors 1603 and 1619. I check some solutions here and re-installing windows was what one person did, but I cannot do that.
Please help.
Solved! Go to Solution.
1603 is generic permission error, please try to install the software in diagnostics mode as described here

If the issue persists, please post the all the log files from the %temp% folder (start->run/search->type %temp% ->Enter) as a zip file.
Hi Hashim,
Thanks for the suggestion, but I tried the diagnostic mode and it still failed. I attached here the installation log so you can see the errors.
Please let me know if you have ideas.
Thanks!
Please try
Still not working for some reason. I looked at my control panel and it shows Visual C++ 2005 Redist to be installed.
I have attached the new installation log.
This time when I tried to install, a popup came up right before installation attempted. The popup said windows installer has failed.
error in the log is still about
Installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable
Please uninstall all VC++ components and install it manually as described in the other posts
Hi Hashim,
I tried it. I uninstalled all VC++ components and then installed from the microsoft website.
It is still providing the same errors. Could I be installing the wrong versions? I am using these links:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5555
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5638
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=29
Best,
Bishara
Assuming the error is still about VC++ runtime
Links are almost correct for 32 bit OS. (except for the 2008 one)

Have you done a complete windows update ?
Have these installations gone through successfullly ? if yes
Another option would be to clean all the VC++ components and let the revit installer do this part.
If it fails, please post the detailed logs from the %temp% folder for the vc++ part.
Still not working.
I removed all vc++ components and let revit install them. It did not work. It only installed 2005 and 2008 and then failed.
Then when I try to get you the temp files, the only folder in the Temp folder that is related to VC++, is VC++2010. And there are some 2010 related text docs, but I can't open them???? It says access denied.
Can I get in touch with anyone at Autodesk to help me? Maybe with a shared screen to solve the issue?
I really need to get this installed so I can do some work for my class.
Thanks.
Were you able to install VC++ 2010 manually ?
I did not try after the last attempt by revit, but I don't think it will make a difference since the issue is with 2005 and 08.
Can you zip all the log files from the temp folder and post it here please.
Only the latest ones when zipped should be much lesser.
If not please post the VC++ installation logs.
Hashim, its not allowing me post a zip file.
I am getting this error
I could not post them, but you can download it here:

Thank you for the log,
here is the Error from the VC++ installation.

Please try this tip from Microsoft forum
Tried updating permissions to the the key with failure. That did not work
I also tried setting up a new administrator and installing it on that and that did not work.
