SCCM - PSAppDeployment Toolkit - Adobe Reader DC MUI

Hi All, 

I was wondering if anyone could assist with the below error I`m receiving? I`m attempting to deploy Adobe Reader DC MUI with a customised MST file via SCCM (PSAppDeployment). 

MSI (s) (38:BC) [16:22:51:491]: Machine policy value 'DisableUserInstalls' is 0

MSI (s) (38:BC) [16:23:10:108]: Note: 1: 1708 

It would appear the script is unable to locate the location of the MST (which is in the same location as the MSI) but if I run the below command from CMD it works.

msiexec /i "AcroRead.msi" Transforms="Customize.mst" 

The custom MST has been created using Acrobat Customization Wizard DC.

PSAppDeployment command in Powershell...

## <Perform Installation tasks here>
# Install the base MSI and apply a transform
        Execute-MSI -Action Install -Path 'AcroRead.msi' -Transform `Customize.mst`
        # Install the patch
        Execute-MSI -Action Patch -Path 'AcroRdrDCUpd1500920079_MUI.msp'

This also installs a MSP patch. 

Thanks in advance,
Scott Evans

Why are you using PSAppDeployment?

SCCM does this out of the box, I havent used it for ages but there is a way to link multiple bits for an application. Need a SCCM guru to explain, or when im back in the office I'll let you know.

The above aside, your powershell is malformed, you have back ticks where it should be single quotes.
Execute-MSI -Action Install -Path 'AcroRead.msi' -Transform `Customize.mst`

  • +1 for the "bad ticks". Looking at the msi log file, that's why the ..Unable to create a temp copy of transform ''.. seems to be there... - Pressanykey 8 years ago
