环境

McAfee VirusScan Enterprise (VSE) 8.8

For details of VSE supported environments, see KB51111.

摘要

The VSE installation log might contain a generic error code 255 that references the SystemCore part of the product installation. The VSE file SetupVSE.exe invokes the executable Mfehidin.exe that controls the installation of core components and waits for the return code. The error 255 is a fatal error return code from Mfehidin.exe that can have numerous causes.

This article helps with troubleshooting this issue in a logical order. We continue to investigate each potential known cause and update this article as new issues are identified and resolved.
