Re: msiexec problem

as an update, msiexec was not running due to an issue with the machine. This
has now been resolved.

However running the program from sms using the commands below, the program
installs but it never shows up in add/remove programs or in the start
programs menu? If i run directly from the command line then everything is
fine.

I have seen a previous post which suggested ticking the "allow users to
intertact with this program" in the environment tab of the program, but this
has not helped. This happens on all machines i have tried, all xp sp2 with
installer 3.1 or installer 3.0.

Any ideas?
