How to troubleshoot Windows installation issues
If a problem occurred while installing or uninstalling the client, there are several things to
investigate. These can include ensuring that all required files were installed in the correct
directory, verifying that the client is running, and checking process logs.
Verify Windows installation files
After an installation, check that folders and files were installed on the client. The C:\Progarm
Files\McAfee\Host Intrusion Prevention folder should have been installed and should contain these
essential files and folders:
DescriptionFile Name
Host Intrusion Prevention servicesFireSvc.exe, VSCore/Release/mfefire.exe,
VSCore/Release/mfrvtp.exe
Client consoleMcAfeeFire.exe
Installation history is written to C:\Windows\Temp\McAfeeLogs\McAfeeHip8_Install_<version>.log.
To verify that the client installed correctly, check in this file for the following entry:
Product:
McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention -- Installation operation completed successfully
.
Log files are located in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\McAfee\Host Intrusion
Prevention\ or C:\ProgramData\McAfee\Host Intrusion Prevention on Vista and Windows 7.
Verify the Windows client is running
The client might be installed correctly, but you might encounter problems with its operation. If
the client does not appear in the ePO console, for example, check that it is running. Open a
command prompt, type tasklist \svc, and check that these services are running:
• FireSvc.exe
• mfefire.exe
• mfevtp.exe
If not, do the following:
1 Run C:\Program Files\McAfee\Host Intrusion Prevention\McAfeeFire.exe to open
the client console.
2 Unlock the console: Select Task | Unlock User Interface and type abcde12345 as the
default password).
