Software Deployment

what does your log say? (by the way /Log is invalid you want /L*v)

can't imagine it would uninstall anything, only if it's upgrading a previous version!

If we run it manually it installs fine. Its just when we run it through SCCM that it uninstalls instead.

Here is a part of the log. It says at the end that the remove is complete instead of install complete or configuration successful

Property(S): REMOVE = ALL

there's the problem, could you look through the rest of the log to see where this property gets set?

Here is a bit more from the same log. The strange thing is that its the same command line from the first post that is run and that REMOVE property is set to ALL:

by the way /Log is invalid you want /L*v)Not according to 'MSIExec /?' it isn't :-) In fact, '/LOG' is the equivalent to '/L*'.

TBF, I think that switch is new to v4.x.

fair enough, just testing good to see your on the ball!

You can see my "on the ball"?

Oh, I see. You meant "Nice to see you're on the ball."

Your = owned by you
You're = a contraction of "You are".

Lesson ends. :-)

I can't even play the "English isn't my first language card"....

I bow down to your massive intellect Ian...

Not so much intellect as "ruler crashed across knuckles" during English at school. That tends to focus the mind and improve the memory LOL

... and I wonder why someone at the last job interview I went to uttered the words 'so you're a nitpicker then?'

I denied it then but maybe it's a good quality to have [:)]

'so you're a nitpicker then?' Very professional. All those years in college served him well (I just *know* it was a man, right?).

What was your counter? I hope it was something like "If you mean am I thorough and like to do a professional job, then yes."

My counter was 'No I'm not, I just work to a certain corporate standard and rely on a good QA process and the people that execute it, I'm only human so I do make mistakes from time to time'
