    Msi

    "The installer was interrupted before YourApp could be installed. You need to restart the installer to try again."

    Does anybody know why the MSI's installer is saying this, and how to get rid of it?

    Hello famous,

    Try:

    Code:
    msiexec /unregister
    msiexec /regserver
    And make sure you have the latest version of MSI.

    Datadynamics sucks.


    My best guess is your MSI version has a problem. WHat OS and what SP do you have?

    He's not packaging anything, just trying to install it.

    hmm....found the answer to this.. all the installation files were located on a disk where I had changed the persmissions... seems that winxp admin account needs full rights to the disk where the msi files are executed from... moved them to my c drive, run them... no problems... why cant ms tell me that this is the problem...
