Also, I forgot to mention that I am directed to installer logs, but I can't find their location in the documentation and there is no Program Files/Decisions folder yet

Hello Austin,
I'm glad to hear you were able to figure it out. In addition, I would like to point out that the installer logs folder is created in the same location as the Decisions installer. Decisions gets created under C:/Program Files once the installation is nearing completion. Due to the fact that we got stuck on the System Requirement Check page, the Decisions folder was not created. I would be pleased to answer any questions you may have.
Thanks

I get the same error on install. I think in my case it is an issue with .net 6 / the hosting bundle. I'm not in anyway an authority on the platform - but it's my general feel. Here are some details from my experience.
ASP.Net Core app failed to start

Versions of .net hosting bundle installed

Installer Error

Thanks - I removed the file & reset IIS
When it came up - A new Settings.xml file was created --- Different File Repository location was in the settings file than what I tried to setup during the install. - Still got the .net core ASP failed to start error when hitting the url.

I have [T-049543] open with Support. Was supposed to connect with someone yesterday but I never got the Zoom invite. Unfortunately, he's out of the office today, and I'm out all next week.
I'll bump it and see if I can get another engineer to lend me some brain time. thx

Hi Decisions Team,
I am getting the error - localhost/decisions is not reachable. I am using IIS hosting option while installing and also installed .NET 7.0.4
Please check and provide your feedback.

Adding to the previous query:
I have changed the port to 8086 but then also I am getting error in installation. While doing re-run check it is showing success message but then it says Installation Finished with error.
I have attached the Log file for your reference.

Regards, Ankit

The issue with the installation is resolved. I deleted the Decisions folder in C drive > Program Files and used self-hosting with a different port while installing.
