[wpkg-users] Edit: The System Cannot Find the Specified File

Hello,

I am using wpkg to install numerous types of software.  Half of which I 
have been able to install successfully (Firefox, Thunderbird, 7zip, 
Notepad++, and VLC).  There are a hand full in which I cannot for the 
life of me get to execute correctly.  I have followed the unattended 
install codes found on your site (modifying for my path to the package) 
and get the same error.  When I execute the same exact command on the 
client pc in command prompt the package installs, however when I run 
wpkg either by restarting (or by executing cscript \\server\wpkg\wpkg.js 
/synchronize /debug, it will act like it tries to install OpenOffice 2.4 
(installer flashes on the screen) but then skips over it and presents 
"The system cannot find the file specified" for that package and also 
for Adobe Reader 8 and PDFCreator, all of which can be installed with 
the msi command inputed directly on the client.  Any help would be 
greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Edit::: I have now posted my profiles.xml and my packages.xml files for 
review.  Thanks
