Hi, 

If you are using the "silent install" method, you are missing the message that 
the Windows Installer has to be updated. If so, try the failing installs 
manually. First thing that happens is the update of the Windows Installer. 

Of course, above totally assumes silent install...

Regards,

Karel

Subject: Upgrade to 5.1.7 from 4.1.2


Hi, I've been attempting an upgrade to TSM 5.1.7 from 4.1.2 recently. It's
been fine until this weekend when attempting to upgrade the majority of my
NT4 clients.   Some of the upgrades worked but on other clients they
didn't!  Very frustrating, all the clients have identical builds.

The message claims it can't map to the network drive where the client
install msi file is located and shows the path to a shared area which
isn't used for the install.  The install image was downloaded to the
default area on the c partition.  I tried mapping to the shared area but
this didn't help at all (nothing happened during an attempted install in
this case).

I've exhausted all ideas I have, if anyone has had any experiences or can
give some advice please let me know.

Thanks, Marc.
