Our team is having this really odd problem with not being able to install apps in their VPC instances once the app has joined the domain at a client. The error message we get is.

Please wait while the installer finishes determining your disk space requirements.

No matter how long you wait, nothing happens. Hmph.

A co-worker of mine discovered a temporary work around to this issue and it involves the following:

  1. Uninstall the Virtual Machine Add-ons.
  2. Install your application of choice.
  3. Reinstall the Virtual Machine Add-ons.

 

Once you uninstall the add-on’s the installation goes smoothly.
