Dynamic Variable Package Installs (Not Applications)

My Apps install fine, but I'm not sure where to look to see if all my Packages are as I'm not finding much in the smsts.log.
I believe I have everything configured fine, as its similar to my applications OSD task just with a different base variable.
So for example:
Base variable = PACKAGES
Collection Variable:
PACKAGES001 - 1010007C:Unattended
That is the correct syntax I believe.  So which log files can prove what is or isn't installing?  I'm installing 9 packages before my 10 apps (apps install fine).

<PackageId>:<ProgramName> should be the correct format, see also:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh846237.aspx#BKMK_InstallPackage
The global information about the different packages to be installed should be in the smsts.log file and the detailed installation information should be in the execmgr a.log file.

  • AAMEE 3.1 Photoshop package - Installation not possible

    Hi,
    -successfully created a Photoshop CS6 package with AAMEE 3.1
    -starting the Adobe Photoshop CS6.msi with msiexec /i c:\temp\Adobe Photoshop CS6.msi /qn is starting the msi/setup
    -Photoshop is not installed
    - msi directly started - same proplem
    -Logfiles searched for errors - nor error found which tells me what's wrong
    -Package 7times new created
    -no idea what i can do now
    for any help thanks in advance!
    Best regards
    Stefan

    The command which you are using is correct but the path which you have mentioned in the command have some space in the folder name. So would recoomend try to add double codes in the path like "c:\temp\Adobe Photoshop CS6.msi".
    Here is the command which you can use to install the software silently. - msiexec /i "c:\temp\Adobe Photoshop CS6.msi" /qn
    or you can change the directory first in the command prompt and then enter the command : msiexec /i "Photoshop CS6.msi" /qn

  • Itunes Package Installer not Installing Apple Mobile Device Support

    Okay, so I have unistalled iTunes, removed everything on my computer that apple told me to, then reinstalled iTunes. But I still get the same message when i plug in my iTouch, "This ipod cannot be used because the required software is not installed." Then it tells me to uninstall and then reinstall itunes; well i have done that literally over 10 times. All to the same result: no mobile device support. I called the 1-800 number for apple and was on the phone for over 2 hours and to find out they couldn't help right at that time because they had to investigate because they could not figure out why iTunes wasn't installing right. Believe me I've done everything possible. And on top of all this, my iTouch is being read as a digital camera. Oh and when i ran a diagnostic on iTunes, this is what it told me.

  • SE61 - Dynamic Variable

    All,
    I had created a Dialog text using transaction SE61 that contains a dynamic variable
    Data Sheet not printed for Sales Order Number &WA_OUTPUT-VBELV&
    This diagonose object i am calling in function module POPUP_TO_CONFORM
    like
      call function 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'
        exporting
          titlebar              = text-t01
          diagnose_object       = p_dobject     "<<==== Here
    But the issue while calling the function module i am not getting the dynamic variable &WA_OUTPUT-VBELV&
    in the display is it showing like the following
    Data Sheet not printed for Sales Order
    Number &WA_OUTPUT-VBELV&   "<=Here i need in display the sales order to be displayed

    Hi
    Yes I've understood what you mean
    When I've spoken about sapscript and driven program, I means the sapscript and program manage the long text (dialog text created by SE61).
    In your situation those elements are not used, because the text is directly shown on popup, so the variable inserted in the text (it's usually defined in the main program) has to assigned the PARAMETER table ( I thought you defined the variable in the program calling popup).
    So try this:
    PARAMETER-PARAM = WA_OUTPUT-VBELV.
    PARAMETER-VALUE = <document number>.
    It works

  • HT5030 whem installing itunes i get this message "this installation package could not be opened. Verifiy that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"

    whem installing itunes on my mums new computer which is windows 7 i get this message everytime "this installation package could not be opened. Verifiy that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"

    Let's check your Windows system.
    1.  Have you done all the important windows updates and service Packs on your system.  If not do it now.  START button, type in Windows Update and ENTER.  Select 'CHECK FOR UPDATES'
    2.  Let's check your Windows system files for possible file corruption
    SCAN and repair possible Windows system file corruption:
    Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
    type in
    sfc /scannow
    let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
    Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
    3.  Check your system for possible Malware.  But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
    Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
    http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
    Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
    To start your computer in safe mode
    Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
    On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
    When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.

  • I cant install java or itunes installation package could not be opened verify that the package exists and that you can access it or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows package installler

    installation package could not be opened verify that the package exists and that you can access it or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows package installler  what can i do ? help me

    Hi,
    Firstly make sure you save it to your hard disk, and then run setup from there.
    If it doesn't help, you may also try to unregister Windows Installer, and then reregister Windows Installer and check if it helps. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. Press Windows Key + R
    2. In the "run" box, type "msiexec /unreg", and then press ENTER.
    3. Press Windows Key + R
    4. In the "run" box, type "msiexec /regserver", and then press ENTER.
    Besides that, You could try to create a new user to download and install the application.

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

  • The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exist

    HELP!
    I have not been able to update my Itunes to a newer version (since 6.0.5). Every time I try to upgrade to the newer version I get this error message when I try to install:
    "The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package"
    This is been incredibly frustrating because now I am limited in what songs and albums I can buy online because they require the newer version. I am getting to the point where i'm ready to start using another service to get my music from now on. I've noticed that others here have the same error message, but they are using Windows Vista. I'm having this problem on Windows XP.
    Any help would be very appreciated.

    Oh sorry what i meant was that i am trying to install adobe reader, i have tried all version from 8 to 9 and i am getting this error.The solution that i found on different forum was to use windows installer cleanup utility and clean up the previous installation. i dont have any installation in my registry.
    Kindly help me in this matter
