Issue: Installing Office 2K3 with WPI

[jesusmr]

Hi:

I try to make a unattended Office installation using WPI. I make the SP2 update and I use the Office XP resouce Kit to create the MST file. I run this process (administrative point, Sliptreamer and custom installation wizard) in my c:\office2k3 folder and when I tested run perfectly and silent. The problem is, when I transfer this folder to my WPI image disc and run the WPI the office setup start to install and before finish, the setup rollback all the process without any messages. Using WPI I can't install Office. If anyone can help me I will appreciate.

Thanks,

JR

PD

This is my office path in WPI

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\WPI\\Install\\Applications\\Office2k3\\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-']

I'd be tempted to try adding in the fully qualified path to the MST file in the command line?

[jesusmr]

Yep. I try and running smooth, the problem is only when is used with wpi.

try

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\WPI\\Install\\Applications\\Office2k3\\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=%cdrom%\\WPI\\Install\\Applications\\Office2k3\\Unattended.MST /qb-']

note that is all one line

NO problems here with this

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\WinApp\\Office_2003\\setup.EXE TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-']

from wpi 3.1 .

@jesusmr have you tried on other computer ?

I had some trouble with this and I ended up making a .cmd file that I called instead of directly calling the transform.

Text of my setup.cmd

cmdow @ /HID

@echo off

start /wait \\"server"\Packages\Office2003\setup.exe TRANSFORMS=Office2003_NoAcc.MST /qb-

exit

If you modify it with your path it may work.
