Ok - All computers are XP ... will turn off fast logon for testing as well.
I have checked permissions on the folder where the MSI is located. It has
both read & execute and Read rights for both users and domain computers. I
still am getting the "The installation of application Revit from policy
RevitDeploy failed. The error was: The installation source for this product
is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it."
error. What other area's should i be checking?
If I open the group policy, and right click to show the security I see:
Authenticated Users: none (i just changed it to read, will be restarting
after i post to see if it does the trick)
CREATOR OWNER: none
Domain Admins: read, write, create and delete
Domain Computers: read
Domain Users: read
Enterprise Admins: read, write, create and delete
ENTERPRISE DOMAIN CONTROLLERS: read
SYSTEM: read, write, create and delete
TestRevit (group I'm using for applying policy, includes users and
computers): read and apply group policy
I'll be testing in a minute - thanks for any help!

I had a GP software installation that had been working fine for a long
time-now it will not install the software anymore. The installation path has
stayed the same. I've tried creating a new policy and this one has the same
error. This particular policy has two parts, the computer conf which
installs the software and the user setting which calls a bat file with some
regedit's. The user settings are applying with no errors.
Here is the error I see in the Application Event Viewer:
"The installation of application Revit from policy RevitDeploy failed. The
error was: The installation source for this product is not available. Verify
that the source exists and that you can access it."
The source for this software is on our network and I can launch the MSI file
from its location and have it install on the computer without any errors. So
why is it that the GP isn't working?!
I swear - it's a love-hate relationship!
hello kelli
this does sound like a permissions issue. i presuming you are
assigning the package to the computer. check that the computer account
has access to the share - and package. it needs access as it installs
whilst the machine is starting, the ACL should contain "Authenticated
users". or add a specific computer account to see if that makes any
difference.
if that fails enable vebose group policy logging. that will tell you
whats going wrong
hope that helps

Hi,
Is this happening only on XP machines or is this also happening on W2K
machines?
Verify that we do not have fast logon optimization enabled where the
computer does not wait for the network to fully connect.
