Re: GP Software Install / Log File



Christine-
There are a couple of logs that you can use for this. Each MSI install
should generate a uniquely named log file (will look like msi*.log) in
C:\windows\installer. You can use that to troubleshoot MSI-level errors. You
can also enable software installation specific logging. I have a custom ADM
file on my site (www.gpoguy.com/tools.htm) that lets you enable various
logging, including this one. That log will generate messages specific to the
GP software installation client side extension. You can also sometimes get
some detail by looking in the Application event log on the client--look for
events with a source of "Application Management".

I am pushing out Office 2003 to all my users via GP and need help figuring
out where the log files go for this push. Some users are not receiving
the
policy and I can't figure out why. A log file would be nice!

Thanks!

Christine
