When running an MSI containing the FLEXnet Connect merge modules (versions 6.0 to 11.6) you may encounter certain installation problems. In particular you may see the following error:

Error 2753.The File 'agent.exe.6ED28686_7B19_420C_B255_5B6C1BD2C705' is not marked for installation.

Error 2753.The File 'isuspm.exe.6ED28686_7B19_420C_B255_5B6C1BD2C705' is not marked for installation.

*Note the guid appended to the file names will differ depending on the version of the merge module being used.

Or alternatively, the install may appear to complete successfully; however, the product may not be registered on the target machine.

Neither of the issues are critical, as the install should complete successfully; however, the product will not have been registered with the agent on the machine. Any of the product’s subsequent calls to check for updates will then result in errors
