Hi, A small proportion of our users are reporting the following failure. Unfortunately as far as I can tell it is a terminal situation so the proportion is likely to simply grow. The full msiexec logs contain these lines:
Action start 15:23:53: RemoveExistingProducts. MSI (s) (14:68) [15:23:54:464]: Product: <PRODUCT> -- Error 1714. The older version of <PRODUCT> cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612. Error 1714. The older version of <PRODUCT> cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612. Action ended 15:23:54: RemoveExistingProducts. Return value 3. Action ended 15:23:54: INSTALL. Return value 3. Error 1612 means "The installation source for this product is not available". I'm trying to understand what that means. I thought that the windows installer system cached all msis somewhere so that they could be run when the user wants to uninstall? Or, could an individual keypath element be missing or missing read permissions? Is there documentaion explaining the causes or workarounds for this state? If I could even find manual steps to remove my product from the list of installed programs so that a new installation overwrote and replaced any missing "installation source", that would be good enough. Several cleanup tools for removing orphaned installs like that existed, but this is not really their intended use. Thanks!
