mazin Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 So, you have got Publisher 2002 as a separate application? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 Thats right not part of office xp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazin Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Do you have a file named setup.ini? I think you should have it on your CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 Yes its located in the setup dir it mentions a mst file looks similar to the office admin install is that correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazin Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Unless you need to slipstream patches (MSPs), you don't need to do admin install.But, you can customize your installation using setup.ini along with setup.exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted August 31, 2004 Author Share Posted August 31, 2004 I only have the msi installer package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazin Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Well!Then, there's one attempt. I suggest you run the MSI like this:publisher.msi /QB PIDKEY=xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxxHope it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prathapml Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 The procedure is all the same as for office. Look here at the MSFN unattended guide for detailed, step-by-step instructions - http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/officexp.htm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazin Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 Just slipstreamed sp3 into publisher but just wandering how to incorporate the serial no like office? Now I have setup.exe in the Publisher dir.If you slipstreamed patches, then you've done AIP. So, you can't use setup.ini. Instead, you use the MST you've created, supposedly.

prathapml Posted August 31, 2004 Share Posted August 31, 2004 I believe the guide clearly states that this is the switch to use, it is:/qb- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
