  • one of the things that's great about msi's is their standard options. You can turn on extended logging of any (well written) msi and get something that should give a clue. Down in the additional command line options of the msi package install rule, you can add in: /log c:\installation.log

    that will force extensive logging and put it in an easy to find log file. Hopefully the contents of the log file will give you a clue as to what is going on.

    As an idea, you might try a /quiet or /qn as well. It is obviously attempting to start, but it could be hanging up waiting for input.

    This site: www.get-itsolutions.com/.../ shows they used the following command line options for the msi: DESKTOP_SHORTCUT="0" MAKEDEFAULT="0" VIEWINBROWSER="0" LAUNCHCHECKDEFAULT="0" AUTO_UPDATE="0" /passive /norestart /qn

    Hope that helps!
