I wanted to tell you that, the IIS was not installed when i installed the DBXL, can that be the reason of failure in installation?
I checked the it says QDabra DBXL standalone edition status - started , startup type - automatic(delayed)
In the event log: there are many errors, I think you are right, the installation was not successful
