Deploying Office 2007 via Group Policy

[ebouza]

Good afternoon,

I am trying to deploy Office 2007 via group policy and I am running into a wall. I have gone to the Microsoft web site and I have done everything they have instructed me to do. I configured the config.xml file and I try to deploy it and it does not get installed. Can someone please help me with this issue. Here is a copy of my config.xml file

<Configuration Product="ProPlus">

<Display Level="full" CompletionNotice="yes" SuppressModal="no" AcceptEula="no" />

<Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Office Professional Plus Setup(*).txt" />

<PIDKEY Value="xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx" />

<USERNAME Value="user" />

<COMPANYNAME Value="Company name" />

<INSTALLLOCATION Value="%programfiles%\Microsoft Office" />

<LIS CACHEACTION="CacheOnly" />

<SOURCELIST Value="\\server name\Office Professional 2007" />

<DistributionPoint Location="\\server name\Office Professional 2007" />

<OptionState Id="PubPrimary" State="absent" Children="force" />

<Setting Id="Reboot" Value="IfNeeded" />

<Command Path="%SystemRoot%\windows32\MsiExec.exe" Args="/x {90120409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9}" QuietArg="/q"

ChainPosition="before" Execute="Uninstall" />

<Command Path="%SystemRoot%\windows32\MsiExec.exe" Args="/i \\server name\Office Professional 2007

\ProPlus.WW\ProPlusWW.msi" QuietArg="/q" ChainPosition="after" Execute="install" />

</Configuration>

As i read, there are several restriction editing the config.xml when deploying with Group Policies!

The only options which can be configured are Product ID number, the language, the installation state and the installation source location

Also make sure the config.xml is in the same folder as the msi file
