error while installation of office compatibillity pack
Hi,
I am trieng to install office 2007 compatibillity pack on user's machine, but I am getting error saying :
"Verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer patch package." below is the log file. I took access of user's machine twice, if again I take access, he will screw me. [:@]
possibillity 1: may be office 2003 latest service pack is not there. I am checking other possibilities. suggestions please.

I took access of user's machine twice, if again I take access, he will screw meForgive me, but testing on user's live machines is idiocy. For pity's sake, download and install MS's Virtual PC or Sun's VirtualBox. They're both free (VB is GNU, IIRC) and you can have as many user or packaging machines as memory and disk space will allow.
Office SP3 is recommended but not required to install the Compatibility Pack. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=941B3470-3AE9-4AEE-8F43-C6BB74CD1466&displaylang=en#Requirements

Most of the virtualisation tools allow you to import machines and create a virtual machine from the image. Do that, rename it, join it to another domain (if you don't have rights to add machines to your existing one) and test.
My guess would be that the Office installation data is screwed on that machine. Windows Installer log information? Event Viewer? ProcMon? Have you used ANY of those tools yet? How do I already know the answer to that question?

The installer for this acts really weirdly. Call out the path to the MSI and the MSP from your command line:
msiexec /i "\\smsww0pri-chbs\packages$\Office2007_CompatibilityPack-12.0.6021-US-001\O12Conv.msi" PATCH="\\smsww0pri-chbs\packages$\Office2007_CompatibilityPack-12.0.6021-US-001\O12Convsp2-en-us.msp" /qn /l*v C:\CompatPatck_Off07.log REBOOT=ReallySuppress
