1001 InstallUtilLib.dll unknown error
Hi,
I'm packaging an application and when I run the install with the mst file I've made, I get the following error:
"1001 InstallUtilLib.dll unknown error". This happens when I first try to unistall, and after that I get this errormessage all the time, also when I try to reinstall
Anybody got some good tips for me?
The application also register some files with Regasm.exe, is there any way for me to find out which files that get registered under installation, and which ones that are already installed on the machine?
I'm using Wise packages studio btw.
here is some of the code from the log:
Any advice, please?
Thank you in advance

Complete guess...does the installing account have access to the network server/share which is mapped to the M: drive? Does that mapping exist at install time?

There is noe problem installing when I don't use transform.
There is a slight difference I see, and that is: I have to give two network paths during installation. When I run the transform (not silent) it seems like one of then goes back to default again, which is under program files on the local machine.
M:\ is my local drive, and local administrator is installing. I've also tried installing with a domain administrator permissions.
I've been searching through the logs, and I start to suspect that it might have something to do with registration of files and services. I think the installation rolls back about the the the file/service registration is about to happen.
Is there a way I can prove or disprove this? Maybe a path to certain services or dll's is missing in the transform, and then cause an error trying to register these?
Here is an extract from my msi with transform log:
And here is the log without the transform: (and this one works)
There is also many lines in the log running MSI with the mst file which ends with something like this: ...Note: 1: 2262 2: #_BaselineCost 3: -2147287038
Does this indicate a problem, or is it normal?

(see also https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/specified-path-unavailable-error-1001installutillibdll#comment-3426351)
would there be any cases where registrypermissions would be a problem running an msi with a transform file when the msi without a transform file would run fine?
the msi runs fine without the transform.
don't think I'll find anything about this vendor or application in any forums... it's not a big company and they are making updates and small adjustmenst as we go along ... :-(
if you care to see the logs from a successful installation (without transform) and a log from a non successful installation (with transform) I could send you the logs by e-mail. I don't want to post them on the web...

You say on your Symantec Connect post on this subject that the transform creates a couple of network shares. If the installing account has no network access (i.e. if you are using pretty much any deployment system like Altiris or SCCM/SMS), this will fail since the System account has no access to network resources.

Resolved
It was Wise putting a lot of rubbish in my transform. used Orca instead, and now it looks better.
It ruined the trestructure under the program files directory, and added a lot of strange custon actions.
I've added more details on Symantec Connect Post
If anyone has any good tips about using Wise and avoiding these problems, I'd appreciate hearing them
