This is a PSA, no answer required.
We recently ran into two situations where a product would not install, throwing a dialog box with nothing more than the message: 1:1712.
This took place at the step labeled, "Committing System Changes". On OK, the installation is rolled back. This turns out to be a Windows issue, where a prior installation of the same product failed. It is not really a Laserfiche problem, although it affects what you are trying to do with Laserfiche.
There is no one remedy for this issue. Typically, you'd look in Add/Remove programs to see if any entry there is listed. If so, uninstall and try again. Also, a key in the registry might have to be removed.
One conflict involved the Windows Client. Here we found an entry in Add/Remove Programs for the Black Ice Driver. Once that was uninstalled, the Win Client installed without issue.
A second conflict involved Workflow. Running it from the menu (install everything) did not work. But we were able to install one at a time the Designer, then the Server, then the Subscriber.
For diagnostics, you can run the installation from a command line with logging. Use this syntax:
"Path to installation program" -log "Path to log File"
As in:
D:\10.2.0.872\en\WindowsClient\Setup.exe" -log "C:\temp\Client Installation Log.txt"
