Sophos Network Threat Protection Fails to install service

Kevin R

When installing Sophos Endpoint it fails at the end when trying to install Network Threat Protection. I checked the log and see an error "WixQuitExec64: failed. Error code: 0x800f0203. I have checked what I can from previous posts but have been unable to get past this. Any ideas?

    Does the NTP install log show any other error codes? 1603 is very generic.

    Also, is the BFE service (Base Filtering Engine) service started/running on this machine?

    I get a few other errors and yes the BFE is running.

    Initially this started out a legacy issue with Microsoft Security Center. It was not installed but there were traces of it in the registry and a couple of files. The files and a few registry keys were locked but I was finally able to remove them. I had 4 units having this issue and when I cleaned up the registry and removed the two files, two of the units came online with all services running. I still have two units, this being one of them where that didn't work.

    From what I've seen with related issues, sometimes the C++ redist runtime file has issues. Replacing the file may help, can you please see if this works:

    1. Rename the existing msvcr120.dll file located under C:\Windows\System32\
    2. Copy the msvcr120.dll file from C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache\decoded\ntp64\System\ to C:\Windows\System32\ 
    3. Reboot the machine.
    4. Try installing Sophos again

    If the issue persists, please raise a Support case for further assistance on this. The whole SDU log bundle may be reviewed further, and maybe a Process Monitor log of the install process would need to be looked at by Support as well.
