We are evaluating (using trial version) the MSI installer feature of Advanced Installer 20.6. We are interested in building MSI installers for silent deployment to workstations in our LAN.
We build a demo MSI installer but can't use any silent installation parameters.
We tried
Code: Select all
msiexec -i .\DEMO.msi /quiet
Code: Select all
msiexec -i .\DEMO.msi
This 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 makes us can't deploy any MSI installer made by Advanced Installer into our environment.
We tried to do the following:
Check if we are running the newest version of Advanced Installer.
- the newest version is 20.6, as of May 1, 2023.
Check "This 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 not related to this problem. We are not running any .EXE installation under the SYSTEM account. We are running .MSI installation.
Check if we are running the installation with Administrator privilege.
- We are running this .MSI by admin.
Check if our test environment is corrupted.
- We tried running this .MSI on other PCs running Windows 10 Pro 22H2 or Windows 11 Pro 22H2. All PCs gave the same error.
Thanks in advance.
