Installation via GPO fails
Hi Guys,
I have created a package of IE7 and trying to deploy it via GPO and I am unsuccessful.
I have used IEAK7 to create IE7Setup.exe. Now copied this in my package folder (Internet_Explorer_7.0_b01)
Now I have created an .msi wrapper and used a custom action in that to call this IE7Setup.exe from SourceDir.
When I run my msi manually it successfully install IE7 on my machine but when I try to install this msi via GPO, .msi fail to call the IE7Setup.exe.
What could be the reason.
Any suggestions please.
Thanks,

Could this be a problem that .msi fail to call the IE7Setup.exe from a network location.
I mean to say that GPO call the .msi from a UNC path \\abc\dfs\Internet_Explorer_7.0_b01
and .msi and IE7Setup.exe is located inInternet_Explorer_7.0_b01 folder
But I have tried another way as well which also fails.
I have tried to first copy the IE7Setup.exe in c:\windows\temp folder
and then run it from there instead of Sourcedir
Even this is not working via GPO....while manual installation on machine works fine..

Hi Vbscab,
I know that is the best way...but client want it to be packaged and delivered it this way to their 100 of users...
please advise what could be causing problem in its deployment via GPO.

You have, of course, consulted AppDeploy's Package KB? See the 'Notes' section.
