Do other MSI files install on that box?  That's useful information and
rules out policies of any kind. Somewhere in policy settings "Software
Restriction Policies" there is a list of file types that are not allowed
to run, and the MSI extension might be restricted, so whether other MSI
files install is useful data.  I don't believe the file extension
restriction is the same as the DisableMsi policy. 
 
I've seen reports that you can get this error if there have already been
failed attempts to install the product, due to left over junk in the
registry associated with the ProductCode guid. If this is the case,
changing the ProductCode guid might allow it to install.

I want to add to my previous email that I searched for the value
"DisableMSI" and it doesn't exist in the registry, which means that the
Installer is always enabled.

So, I think that "DisableMSI" is not the cause of my problem.

 

Thanks,

Hi,

 

I'm trying to run a setup on a Win2k3 server and I get error no' 1625:
"The system administrator has set the policies to prevent this
installation".

When I run the same setup on Vista it works. Currently the msi size is:
1.55 Giga Byte (I configured 5 cabs). Before that when it was 441MByte I
could run the setup with no error.

 

I have an administrator account on the Win2k3 server that I use.

 

When I searched online I found information about DisableMSI in:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa368304.aspx

http://blogs.msdn.com/windows_installer_team/archive/2005/07/18/442753.a
spx

 

Therefore, I checked the registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer  and I
saw that "EnableAdminTSRemote"  is equal to 1.

1.      Do you have any idea why I get this error? 
2.      If you think that it is caused by the value DisableMSI then what
should be the right value for win2k3 server. How can I change this
value?
        How is it that I could run the msi when it was 0.5Giga, but when
I changed it to 1.5Giga I started to get error 1625? 

 

Thanks,

Ravit
