Actions in case of error during installation

The configuration files and some other files are moved to the /opt/kaspersky_cybertrace_tmp temporary directory during the installation after Kaspersky CyberTrace Service stops. If errors occur during the installation, the moved files remain in the temporary directory.

The upgrade log file is located in the /temp directory or in the directory specified in the $TEMP environment variable, if $TEMP is defined.

If you encountered an error during an automatic installation, contact your Technical Account Manager (TAM) for more information on solutions to the problem.
