MST error
 

I have setup an outlook installation point on network shared folder using
"Custom Installation Wizard" which created a MST file with pre-configured
settings. Now when I try to run it using the following command line:

setup.exe TRANSFORMS="\\server\Outlook2003\New Custom Setup File.MST" /qb-

I get "Please go to the Control Panel to install and configure system
components." message and nothing happens. Any Idea how to fix this?

Thanks,

Faisal

What operating system are you trying to install Office/Outlook 2003 on? If
Windows 2000, does it have service pack 3 or 4 installed. (minimum is 3).
The other thing I would check is the version of the Windows installer
technology (needs to be a minimum of 2.0).

I am installing it on Windows XP SP2 with all the latest updates, including
the latest version of Windows Installer.

Hmm... at this point I would run setup and log its output (you will be
using the "/L" command line switch). The log file might give a clue as to
what is going on.


e.g.
setup.exe transforms=\\server\share\path\custom.mst /lv* "%temp%\Office
Setup(*).txt" /qb-
