Error starting NGP Host Service
If port 20111 is busy during installation of C-Werk (for example, because of nethost.exe processes that have not been unloaded since removal of the previous version), an error message regarding the launch of NGP Host Service appears.
To continue installation, free up port 20111 and try again.
After installation of the Postgres database, the C-Werk installer may quit prematurely. This situation may be associated with the inability of the installer to connect to the Postgres database, if the firewall is enabled. To prevent this, disable your firewall during installation.
Note
Disabling the firewall during installation can cause another problem—see No signal from video cameras and failure to connect to other servers.

This can be solved by installing the Windows update KB2999226.
