Managed Installs gets deleted before installing
K1000
Some time ago Managed installs and software installed from the Software Library suddenly stopped working. After som troubleshooting I managed to figure out that the .zip file acctually downloads to the client but before the install starts it gets deleted. Anyone else experienced something like this before?

More than likely you have the "Delete Downloaded Files" checked in your MI. I would say there's something wrong with your installer. Can you post the installation command you are using?

There was nothing wrong with the installations before, i've used them several times frequently. And the "Delete Downloaded Files" is unchecked.
the command that is used is nothing else then "setup.exe" configured manually. - connectsto 11 years ago
Toss in a
/L*v "C:\InstallLog.txt"
at the end of your install command line so we can see the output.

Seriously man, do an install log, and read it to me. - gcarpenter 11 years ago
By chance are you running any cleanup scripts to empty temp folders (specifically the Dell\KACE\downloads folder)?
I've seen this posted as a workaround for the MIs not cleaning up after themselves properly and a quick check of
your scripts could rule this out.

Nopes, I have kept it as simple as possible. The wierd thing is that is worked like a charm for 4 month and all over sudden it stopped working from one day to another. - connectsto 11 years ago

When this happens to me, I try rebuilding a new script/MI/Smart label/etc and test. I've had them "go bad" on me in the past and this usually resolves it (unless it's a client-side issue).
