Trying to deploy SP1 for Office 2003?!?

[Zack]

Arie,

As Joseph mentioned, when running this step on a compressed CD image, we
receive 'You have not entered a valid Product Key', and Setup fails. Even
when trying without the /qb option, the same error is given without any
option to actually *enter* a product key for the update.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

-Zack-

A workaround I've found for this is to do the patch this way:

msiexec.exe /p [path\name of MSP file] /a [path\name of MSI file]
PIDKEY=[your-25-digit-CD-KEY] /qb

If you don't know your PIDKEY, use the MST viewer to examine your MST file
and you will find it there. Of course, you don't include the "[" or "]" in
the syntax above

Just to clarify--I'm talking about a *compressed CD image* (ie copy of the
CD), *not* an administrative installation point (created with setup.exe
/a). With your method here I still get an error message relating to the
key... Hmm.
