OBIEE 12c Installation Error: Could not extract the archive since it is corrupted

This is a quick post for those trying to install OBIEE12c.

After unzipping the installation files you would probably see this in your directory:

After executing the .exe file you get the following error message:

"Could not extract the archive since it is corrupted. Error code=1"


Resolution: One workaround to this issue is simply unzipping the .exe file using 7-zip


 Now the installation directory should look like this:

Go ahead and perform OBIEE12c installation from this directory:

Disk1>"c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_65\bin\java.exe" -jar install/modules/ora-launcher.jar

(Note: This assumes you already installed JDK 1.8.0.65 - part of the OBIEE12c installation)

  1. Hi! Is there any other way that I unzip the exe file without installing unzip software on my machine. Please advice me. Thanks!

    1. You must have at least one unzip utility, I have not tried other than 7-zip, but I suspect it should work.
      Good luck.

  2. During the launch an error occurs:"Could not find or load main class oracle.sysman.oio.oioc.OiocOneClickInstaller"
    How do I resolve this?

    Thanks.

    1. Hi,
      Unfortunately the message is very generic which can be triggered by many reasons.
      Please, check the prerequisites for this installation or else copy here a more detailed information.
      regards
