Answered POC 2.0 Hydration - Task Sequence error 1619

    I have been experiencing a problem with a simple install Task Sequence - created for installing Virtualized Office 2010 (the same error occured with different application, so the install package is not the issue here). The task sequence is to copy the package to the destination PC and then run the installation package, once the task sequence is run - it fails with an error, details below

    1.       Three tasks in task sequence are enabled:

    Microsoft INSTALL Office 2010 Deployment Kit

    CONFIG – Copy Microsoft Office 2010 Package to local drive

    Microsoft INSTALL Office 2010 - Virtualized

    2.       Command below copies the files on local hard drive (as part of CONFIG – Copy Microsoft Office 2010 Package to local drive):

    cmd /c robocopy /MIR "%DEPLOYROOT%\Applications\INSTALL - Microsoft Office 2010 - Virtualized\Source" C:\MININT\Office2010Virt

    3.       We get error 1619. You can see files copied to C: (see screenshot)

    Hi,

     

    ERROR_INSTALL_PACKAGE_OPEN_FAILED 1619:  This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package.

     

    It seems windows installer cannot open this installation package, as this problem happens to all applications, I suggest you verify that the package exists in the destiny PC, and check the status of Windows Installer Service.

    Hi,

    The installation package is copied to local disk and is available. Besides, it's package delivered by Microsoft in Hydration Pack.

    There were no problems with any other installation packages. Just to be sure I started Windows Installer Service, but nothing changed.

    Did anyone installed Hydration Pack and tried to deploy MS Office 2010 Virtualized included in the package?
