MSI Installation - persistent problems

This is an issue that has been going on for many versions. I tried to draw Adobe's attention to it many times, many other users also had this problem, but now there's reader 11 and it's still the same.
In the MSI installation the location of PDF icon is hardcoded as [windowsfolder]installer\[productcode]\pdffile_8.ico . If the installation is performed per-user, such as by GPO, then this location is invalid, and the result is generic Windows icon of the PDF files.
I wonder, why is this not addressed?
More generally speaking about this installation, the hardcoded icon is gross violation of best Installer practices, and more specifically, this approach makes impossible adversiting of Reader and install-on-demand. The extension .pdf should be advertised in the installation by normal Installer means. All this, as I understand, because Adobe wants to give the users a choice of Acrobat vs. Reader being the default handler of extension pdf - for those users who have both. Given the fact that percentage of such users is small, and that even among them the percentage of those who will actually appreciate and use this choice is negligible, I wonder, is it worth to sacrifice advertising, install-on-demand, and even self-repair to this choice?
In my records I see that I tried to have this issue addressed back in 2009, and I received the following reply from Adobe's Chief Software Architect Tom Malloy:
===========
Vadim,
I just want to let you know that I forwarded your message to Acrobat quality engineering. They confirm that they know of this shortcoming. It is something we would like to fix but we have not made a decision to prioritize the engineering required, at least yet.
My QE contact is checking with Acrobat program management to see if there is any additional information. If I hear anything more that is worth sharing I will pass it along.
Thanks for making the effort to get through to me. Sorry I can't give you a firm commitment regarding when we will make this better.

So, 3 years ago Adobe was already aware, but still haven't found the time to prioritize the engineering. Ironically, apparently there was no shortage of engineering talent to implement all these hardcoded workarounds and thus to break the installation standards.

Thatz Y... I won't switched to XP until it has really settle down...
lambethduke, I know where you've got things wrong and its a common mistake as I have accidentally did it myself before ... You must have direct right click on your Display adapter driver and un-install... This will cause the screen to go blank during startup whenever you wanna install the drivers again, though you may be able to see part of the windows starting up... Next time, juz un-install the driver by double clicking on the driver and inside the profile click on un-install and this problem will never exist to you anymore...
All the Best... :D!!!

.msi (installer package) problems

Apparently, I deleted the .msi file off of my computer somehow and now I cannot uninstall iTunes or install a new one ontop of the old one because my computer cannot find the file. Any ideas on how to fix the problem or at least get the .msi file back on my computer?

This kind of msi problem can usually be fixed with the Microsoft Installer Cleanup Utility.
Unfortunately the Microsoft Installer Cleanup utility has been withdrawn by Microsoft because of compatibility issues with Microsoft Office so you will need to find a copy elsewhere – the installer is msicuu2.exe. You need version 3.
Google msicuu2.exe download
mydigitallife in the above search has a copy of version 3
Check for malware before installing it.
After installing, To run the program – All Programs>>Windows Install
If you get permission denied error, Try Run as Administrator – an option if you right click on the program.
Open the Cleanup Utility and remove any reference you find to iTunes.
Restart and try installing iTunes.

MSI installer closes with error 1327, Invalid drive on Win 7 Ultimate when My Documents is moved to a network drive

I have several computers with Windows 7 Ultimate installed here at the Pioneer Library System. We have ~20 workstations running XP Pro on a Active Directory domain and are planning on rolling out Windows 7 this fall. I am running Windows 7 to test our programs
(have since RC1) but I am running into an issue when installing software.
The problem I am running into is that when I try to install any program that uses the MSI installer on Windows 7 , it fails with a 1327 error at the point where it is preparing to install and says "Invalid Drive H:\".
All the users in our domain have the "Home Folder" on their active directory profile set to
H:\ (which is mapped to \\PrimaryDC\user$ in the same place). We have also moved the
C:\Users\user\Documents folder to H:\ so as to keep all documents on the server where they get backed up regularly.
If I move "Documents" back to C:\Users\user\Documents the MSI installer works fine. When I look into the registry as suggested in
this thread I found that in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders " and in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders " the key "Personal" points to "H:\".
But, H:\ is a valid connected network drive. Installing from the same account on an XP computer with
C:\Documents and Settings\user\My Documents moved to the H:\ drive works fine.
I have tried setting up another 7 machine and get exactly the same results on it.
Is there a workaround for this besides creating a admin account that does not have Documents mapped to the network drive
H:\ to use for installing programs?
Thanks

PLS

I do not have the option with some of these files to pass parameters to the MSI installer. For example, if I download the Acrobat Reader installer from http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3/enu/AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe and run AdbeRdr930_en_US.exe
it extracts the MSI file to C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files and then runs it.
To reproduce this an a Windows 7 computer (does not have to be on a domain):
Prep Work:
Create a user (test1)
Create a folder on the root of C (C:\Test)
Set permissions on C:\Test to allow the test1 user to have full access to it
Share the C:\Test folder as test1 (again, set the permissions to allow the test1 user full access)
Set the "Home Folder" for the test1 user connect to Z: and point that to \\127.0.0.1\test1
Login as test1
Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
Check that it works:
Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
Note that it works
Uninstall Acrobat Reader 9.3 using "Programs and Features"
Break it:
Login as test1
Check that you have Z:\ mapped and that it works
Go to C:\Users\test1
Right click on the Documents folder and click on properties
Click on the Location tab
Click on "Browse" and select the Z drive
Allow Windows to move the files to the new location
Check that it is broken:
Check that you have access to the new Documents folder at Z:\
Install Acrobat Reader 9.3 from the link above
Note that it extracts itself to C:\Users\test1\AppData\Local\Adobe\Reader 9.3\Setup Files
and runs the MSI installer from there
Note that after the MSI installer is started it pops up an error saying Error: 1327, Invalid drive Z:\.
I also see this with various other install programs (VMWare vSphere Client, VMWare Player and Kaspersky Antivirus for example)
Is there any reason why this should not work? Is there something that I should be doing differently?
Thanks

Issues with Shockwave 11.5.2.602 / 11.5.6.606 MSI installer

<UPDATE 8/3/09> Nearly all of the issues mentioned below are still present in the MSI installer for 11.5.6.606 - the only one that Adobe have fixed is the one where the MozillaPlugins 'Version' value is left blank by the MSI by default - this is now created correctly, but all of the other issues remain.
Personally I have given up trying to use this MSI package to deploy Shockwave until Adobe get their act together - instead I am using a wrapper to wrap the Shockwave executable inside an MSI file and deploying it that way, although this is not ideal.
I have created an MST file which will fix the MSI installer for version 11.5.6.606, which I will post to another forum shortly, but I am not planning to keep it updated for future versions as I don't really have the time.
Hi,
I've tried submitting the following via the Adobe Customer Support portal and via the Feature Request/Bug Report form, but the first told me that I needed to 'get in touch with Adobe Enterprise Solutions team for getting help' and that 'to get in touch with them you have to purchase a contract', and the second resulted in a bounced email address saying that '[email protected]' 'does not exist at the organization this message was sent to'.
In short, attempting to contact Adobe to report issues with their installers sucks, and I am posting this here in the vain hope that someone at Adobe might read this message and possibly forward it to the relevant people. Some of the issues have already been reported here on this forum, but some of them are new, and I guess others might be interested in them too.
Hi,
I would like to report some issues with most recent version of the Shockwave installer, available in MSI format from the following location:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?k=4E6102EB-DA7C-2795-C744826EFDE2A098&l oc=en_us
This is the installer for version 11.5.2.602, with a digital signature dated 06 November 2009 10:52:21
When downloading this version of the installer in Windows Installer (MSI) format, the following issues manifest themselves, most of which are not a problem when using the Full EXE installer available from the same page.
First of all, when installing the MSI file using Group Policy Software Deployment, if you log on to the computer after the MSI file has been deployed and view a web page that contains Shockwave content, you receive the following errors in the Windows event log:
Event Type: Warning

For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.
If you are logged on as an Administrator, then the computer will immediately attempt to 'repair' the Adobe Shockwave Player installation in order to create the missing folder 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Application Data\Adobe\', which leads to a significant delay in the initialization of the Shockwave content on the web page. If you are logged on as a non-Administrator, the errors will still appear, but the 'repair' operation will fail due to insufficient permissions to create the above folder.
I have done some testing and it seems as if this problem can be easily resolved by removing the code from the installer which tells it to create an empty folder in the 'Application Data' folder called 'Adobe\Shockwave Player 11'. This code seems to be entirely unnecessary, as no files are created inside this folder as part of the installation, and I have removed it successfully from my own copy of the MSI without it causing any issues. I have found some other people who are also experiencing this problem in the following forum post:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350 (post number 8)
and since this 'repair' operation causes all customised registry settings to be reset back to defaults as part of the repair, it would be very helpful if this 'feature' could be removed from future versions.
Secondly, there are a number of registry keys which are created incorrectly by the MSI installer when the above 'repair' operation takes place, which need to be corrected to prevent further issues from occurring:
Under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{1F3CB77D-D339-49e0-B8E4-FECD6D6F8CB8}\LocalServer32]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\SHOCKW~1\SWHELP~1.EXE"
(Please note that there is a double quotation mark at the end of the value, but not at the beginning)
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe"
According to a forum post (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350, post 15), this causes DCOM errors when Shockwave is launched, if the MSI 'repair' has taken place as described above.
The above registry value should be set to the following in the installer's Registry table:
"[INSTALLDIR]Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe"
so that the MSI installer works the same as the executable one.
Under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{6EF568F4-D437-4466-AA63-A3645136D93E}\1.0\0\win32]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
Adobe\SHOCKW~1\SWHELP~1.EXE
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe
Also, under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\TypeLib\{6EF568F4-D437-4466-AA63-A3645136D93E}\1.0\HELPDIR]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
Adobe\SHOCKW~1\
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Adobe\Shockwave 11\
Once again, the above registry values should be set to the following in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue:
[SystemFolder]Adobe\Shockwave 11\SwHelper_1152602.exe
[SystemFolder]Adobe\Shockwave 11\
Under '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{166B1BCA-3F9C-11CF-8075-444553540000}]', the 'default' value is NOT SET by the MSI by default:
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
Shockwave ActiveX Control
This value should be set in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue.
Under '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\location\common]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
Macromed\common\
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\common\
Also, under '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\location\coreplayer]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
Macromed\Shockwave 10\
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Shockwave 10\
Also, under '[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macromedia\Shockwave 10\location\coreplayerxtras]', the 'default' value is set to the following by the MSI:
Macromed\Shockwave 10\xtras\
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Shockwave 10\xtras\
The above registry values should be set to the following in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue:
[SystemFolder]Macromed\common\
[SystemFolder]Macromed\Shockwave 10\
[SystemFolder]Macromed\Shockwave 10\xtras\
The MSI installer does not create '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dcr]', '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dir]', or '[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.dxr]'
Wherease the executable installer creates all three of these keys and populates them all with the following 'default' value:
"Content Type"="application/x-director"
These keys and values should be set in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue.
The MSI installer creates a value under the following registry key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OptionalComponets\SwDi r]
However this registry key is obviously misspelt (missing an 'n' in 'OptionalComponets') and should read as follows:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\OptionalComponents\SwD ir]
This key name needs to be changed in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue (also pointed out in the following forum post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350 (post number 10)).
Under [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@adobe.com/ShockwavePlayer], the 'Version' value is left blank by the MSI by default:
Whereas the executable installer creates the value as follows:
1152602
This registry value should be set to the correct version in the installer's Registry table to fix the issue.
Finally, the MSI installer creates a number of registry values under the following path:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@adobe.com/ShockwavePlayer\Mime Types]
These values are *in addition* to the values created under the following path:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MozillaPlugins\@adobe.com/ShockwavePlayer\MimeTypes]
(Note there is no space between 'Mime' and 'Types' in the second key path)
The executable installer *only* creates registry keys under the 'MimeTypes' key, and it seems as if this is the correct formatting for the key (also pointed out in the following forum post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2379350 (post number 11)).
The unnecessary 'Mime Types' registry keys and values should be removed from the installer's Registry table to avoid any potential issues.
I am sorry that this is such a long list, but it seems as if a number of things have been changed in the transition from 11.5.1.601 to 11.5.2.602, and it would be very helpful if these changes could be put back to how they were before, so that the MSI and the executable installers function in the same way as much as possible.
Message was edited by Borgquite - added 11.5.6.606 update

Have posted an updated version of the MST to my webspace here:
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/minkus/shockwave/shockwave115606mst2.zip
This new version fixes the following issues (changes to this version in bold):
MsiInstaller repair & errors on first run as non-admin (removes 'AppData' directory entries)
DCOM errors once Shockwave is installed (adds double quotes to the beginnning of LocalServer32 value)
Incorrect TypeLib paths in the registry (fixed to use built-in [SystemFolder] property)
Default CLSID description value missing (set to 'Shockwave ActiveX Control', as per the executable installer)
Incorrect Shockwave 10 paths in the registry (fixed to use built-in [SystemFolder] property)
Misspelt 'OptionalComponets' registry key (renamed to 'OptionalComponents')
Missing .dcr, .dir, .dxr Content Type registry values (included in the executable installer)
Fixed incorrect AppID registry key (set to use installer's [VERSION] variable)
Removed 'Launch SWDNLD.exe' shortcut created in Programs subfolder (people don't want this - see here)
I have tested this on my network and it all seems to work fine. Unfortunately my original plan to use the executable installer didn't work out as it does not include the Shockwave 10 compatibility components described here and here, so it looks like I'll have to keep this MST file up to date with the latest versions until Adobe fix the problems themselves...
If you want to see the changes that I have made, load up Adobe's 11.5.6.606 MSI file in Orca, then use Transform / Apply Transform to apply the MST, and look for the entries in green.
Please post any feedback to this thread, and I will try to respond if I can help!

I don't understand; two days ago you wrote that you have it, now you don't...?
If you don't have it, then why not deploy the current version 12.1.3.153 - I don't see the point of installing an old, unsecure software version.

10.1 MSI installer

Hello,
I'm having problems installing 10.1.53.64 using MSI package.
A GPO installation exits with 1603 error and lunching the msi for manula installation searches for 10.0.42.34, and because I don't have that package it fails to install.
The packake is updating 10.0.45.2 which installed with no problems.

Lets make this clear.
I'm distributing the package through AD GPO. The new package should update the old 10.0.45.2 package but the installation fails and in system log i have errors marked with 1603 number.. No additional data is available.
When i try to manually lunch the msi (bu executing it) after it prompts for privileged access it asks me to locate a network resource for 10.0.42.34 package. I assume it wants to uninstall it - because if i try to cancel the request it tells me that the installation failed because it can not uninstall the previous version. I don't remember if i had such version installed on any computer, and i no longer have this package version.
This entry is genereated in event log when manualy lunchind the msi installer
Product: Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin -- Error 1714.The older version of Adobe Flash Player 10 Plugin cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612.
I have found this information about the 1612 error
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/332/332773.html
but there is no adobe flash listed in the programs of windows, and i even lunched the flush uninstaller but with no luck.
At this point i think that the installer detects an older failed or corrupted installation and tries to remove it, but fails because it has no installer for that.
As for the log i don't know where to look for those and searching the computer did not get any results.
As for open browsers. The package lunched by the AD is run pre logon so there should be no browser open. And of caurse i do close my broswer when lunching the manual installation.

I fear that you are trying to download OLDER Software on a newer Operating Sysytem Meaning that you need to Install the Latest Version of Adobe on the Newer Operating System for it to work Properly. Be sure to always check the minimum System Requirements.

MSI installer not working MSI 5.0 Windows 7

Hello I am trying to get MSI installer to work and when I go to install anything that has the Windows Installer Package it opens Notepad in a scrambled message. I have tried numerous avenues to no avail (regedit,copy paste regedit, troubleshooters, sfc/scannow,
command prompt etc.) I tried to choose the file association of MSIexec in System32 and it just opens this
I have tried what is suggested in this forum
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/f699e632-54ba-443b-85df-269a7fd6cf1a/windows-installer-not-working?forum=w7itprogeneral and regedit says:
I have tried this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2438651#reso1 and didn't work
I have tried changing C :\Windows\System32\msiexec.exe /V in regedit and that didn't work
I have searched event viewer and all that's in there is a warning and information of successful installs and uninstalls.
I have tried %windir%\system32\msi.dll version in Command prompt and it says that the system cannot execute the specified program
I am thinking it is just a matter of finding the correct file association that the windows installer can use to install that program but I am unable to find that!
I did a system restore but the only good restore was from earlier today and it still just opens notepad. before I did the restore I went into services and the computer couldn't find the file (windows installer) so I did a restore and now it at least sees
the file and I can start the service.
Can I please get some help fixing this? would uninstalling MSI and re-installing it work? I have been searching forum after forum and nothing has yet worked.
I did a clean install of windows a couple of weeks ago

Hi ingenuities,
Try importing these reg file under Safe mode.
If you really need this work, I am supposing the only way is to try importing them manually, if any value key is using by process, use process monitor to filter out these processes and shut them down.I monitored values under MSI.package seems like no
value was using by system.
I exported msi.package and patch to text, it is from a clean Windows 7 intallation。

Persistant problems with FF 27.0.1 on Windows 7/64

I seem to have a persistent problem with Firefox 27.0.1 and my MSN homepage. When I open FF, it takes me to both my Outlook Mail page and My MSN pages in two separate tabs. Outlook Mail had a problem taking my correct password, but that issue seems to have resolved itself (I did clear all cookies and caches related to the website). But My MSN is still giving me this message...
"The page you have requested cannot be found.
The web page you were attempting to view may not exist or may have moved — try checking the web address for typos."
I tried the same thing as I did with Outlook (deleted cookies and caches), but the problem persists. I disabled all plugins, and still no luck. The MSN Homepage comes up, and I'm shown as logged into My MSN, but when I click the My MSN link, I get the "The page you have requested..." message.
Another issue relating to both websites is password remembering. FF will NOT ask to remember the passwords for those sites. I have Remember Passwords box checked in Settings and it does for other sites, but not my Homepage(s). Clearing cookies/caches didn't help, and the password is not listed in the Remembered Passwords page of Settings.
Finally, Firefox on my home laptop (Windows 7/64 as well) freezes and crashes a lot, as well as displayes a warning there is something with Flash, which I have updated many times over.
I used to use Internet Explorer as a browser exclusively until I started having problems with certain websites not allowing me to log in. I realized it was not the website, but some incompatibility with IE. I started using Firefox, and fouind no problems, and heard it was more secure and easier to configure than Internet Explorer anyway. But since these problems started occurring (especially with NO way for me to log onto My MSN), I have to go back to using IE (except for select website logons), which is disappointing :-(.

About your home page; Manually set up Firefox with the window(s) and tab(s)
the way you want them to be. Then;
'''''Firefox Options > General > Homepage'''''.
Press the button labeled ''''Use Current'''.'
=====================================
Open a new window or tab. In the address bar, type '''''about:config'''''.
If a warning screen comes up, press the '''''Be Careful''''' button.
This is where Firefox finds information it needs to run.
At the top of the screen is a search bar. Enter '''''browser.newtab.url'''''
and press enter. '''''browser.newtab.url'''''
tells Firefox what to show when a new tab is opened.
If you want, right click and select '''''Modify'''''. You can change the
setting to; about:home (Firefox default home page), 
about:newtab (shows the sites most visited), 
about:blank (a blank page), 
or you can enter any web page you want. 
The same instructions are used for the new window setting, listed as
'''''browser.startup.homepage'''''.

Automaticly run Program\Script After and MSI Installation

Hi All,
Today I started looking into the use of Application Model in SCCM 2012.
It was easy to create an application by using the import MSI function, which automatically created the application, deployment type and detection rule. But I'm struggling with how to run a script afterwards, when the MSI installation was successful.
I've looked into creating 2nd deployment type making the first deployment type as it's dependency, but it's mandatory that I also need to make an detection rule. And this is where I'm stuck ass the detection rule I want to have the same as
for the first deployment type which will make it impossible to run because the condition will be evaluated ass already installed.
Is there a way to avoid the detection rule? If not is if possible trigger something after the first deployment type based on the errorlevel after the MSI installation.
My goal is to write a regkey somewhere in HKLM\Software\<company name> after an successful installation of an application. This location we've included in our hardware inventory for reporting purposes.
Any suggestions to achieve this goal are welcome .
Regards,
Daniel

I've resolved it with using the AddDploymentTypebyMISInstallerAuto function from the Add-CMDeployment command and provided an InstallationProgram parameter to override the default InstallationProgram.
The comman-line looks like
Add-CMDeploymentType
-ApplicationName <Name>
-AutoIdentifyFromInstallationFile
-ForceForUnknownPublisher $True `
-InstallationFileLocation
<MSI
File> -MsiInstaller
-DeploymentTypeName
Test1 –InstallationBehaviorType InstallForSystem
-InstallationProgram
< Custom
Script>
In this way I have the detection based on the MSI GUID and the ability to use a wrapper script.
