Error: The Sys Admin Set Policies to prevent this installation


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

i am trying to install a msi. the problem is im getting an error. all i have come up with is changing HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer to 0 it was originally 1. i did that but am still getting the system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation. is there anything else i can do. I am currently running Server 2003.

Edit: Went through Local Security Policy and couldnt find anything that would restrict msi from installing.

Also this is what is in the event viewer

The installation of D:\DOCUME~1\SERVER~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\{*}\*.msi is not permitted due to an error in software restriction policy processing. The object cannot be trusted.

What group policies are being applied to this user and this computer? Run a gpresult /z out to a txt file to see.

tryed gpresult /z > C:\gpresult.txt but nothing happened. the cmd window opened and closed right away. i still have not had luck figuring out the problem.

Do you have a gpresult.txt file in the root of your C: drive now?

Edit: You did that from the Run prompt...that doesn't work. You have to run that from a Command Prompt.

The local GPO does have software restriction policies being applied, that's what the Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer\CodeIdentifiers\ registry keys point to, and specifically the rule for Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer\CodeIdentifiers\TransparentEnabled set to 1 means that Software Restriction Policies are enabled and functional from policy. So, you need to look just a little harder at the local group policies, because your statement before means you missed something obvious:

Went through Local Security Policy and couldnt find anything that would restrict msi from installing.

If you need help figuring out how to turn this off, try looking at this technet article. It's in there, and gpresult says so.

i went and set the reg setting for transparentenabled to 0 and restarted the computer but still couldn't install the msi. i also looked at the technet article but did not know what i was looking for. i have not really ever seen half the stuff before and did not what else to look for besides the reg entry for transparentenabled.
