shauntr Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Hi,I'm having some problems installing MS Visual Studio 2005. I have followed the microsoft guide from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/812820/en-us. Gone through the Admin Mode, created the ini file, copied all the files to the Network etc.When I run the install command \\server\share\path to setup /unattendfile path to unattend.ini Setup launches silently and installs some files into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio & C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8. In total about 60Mb, then exits. When I check Event Viewer App log it states Product: Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition - ENU -- Installation completed successfully. It is definitely NOT on the system.I have checked the logs for the install in %temp%. The log is attached. Near the bottom it states that Windows Installer 3.1 had a fatal error during installation error 1603. This I assume is whats causing my problem but I don't know how to fix it.I am trying to install this onto a machine running Windows XP with SP3. I have run the install manually and it worked fine.I would really appreciate any help as it's begining to annoy me now!!!ThanksShaun VS_2005_Log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravisO Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 (edited) You should try slipstreaming VS2005 SP1 into your install, it might work better:http://blogs.msdn.com/heaths/archive/2006/...ice-pack-1.aspx Edited May 20, 2008 by TravisO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
