CAUSE:
One known cause is that when the installation media are located in a deep directory structure on a local drive, this error can result
eg D:\Software\Progress_Software\20100607-000001-major-full-release\openedge\openedge management cd\setup.exe
This problem also manifests when the installation media are located on a network drive
FIX:
Copy the installation files to a local drive with a short (temporary) directory listing and run the installation setup.exe
eg D:\Software\openedge management cd\setup.exe
