WPKG Client doesn't perform any installations, it just starts wpkg.js which is the "installation engine". Did you change any other settings, i.e., start the service as SYSTEM now, but previously you started it as Administrator? Some installers don't work as a SYSTEM user - but I guess Microsoft should make the installers which work fine as both SYSTEM and Administrator, so the problem is perhaps somewhere else. Does it install directly with wpkg.js when you start it as Administrator, i.e.: cscript \\server\...\wpkg.js /synchronize /debug ? -- Tomasz Chmielewski http://wpkg.org |
