Hi
I'm trying to distribute MSI files to a numebr of desktops using SMS2 ...
Methods
1) Create MSI file (using wise installer )
2) Create Package
3) Create Program within the Package and distribute to Site Server's (sms2 service pk 2)
3) Associate Package with Collection
4) Setup Advertisement and set to mandatory ( As soon as possible
but I have the following problems :
Method 1
If I set the program command line to the MSI file the
Application fails to install as stated with the Advertised Program Manager.
If also fails to install with method 2
Method 2
I've wrapped the MSI within an exe file created with sms installer. The wrapper copies the MSI file to the temp dir execute's the MSI file waits to finish and then deletes the MSI file
I have tested the wrapper by running directly on the pc and all is successful ... So can anyone tell me how to setup a successful install of msi files using sms2 to distribute
Cheers
