I have edited Tasks.xml, and look through the code for the task in question.Then i went to the specified Working Directory %systemdrive%\KACE\Applications\40 and tried to manually run the file (setup.exe).The application got installed - creativegenius 8 years ago

Why the automatic Post-installation Tasks for this application is not working? - creativegenius 8 years ago

Before uploading office 2013 package to dell kace k2000,I have also tested the same package on 2-3 office laptops .I was able to silently install the package by just running "setup.exe" from the command prompt - creativegenius 8 years ago

can you show what is in the root of the zip file? the task is going to look for setup.exe in the root of the folder

Kace k 2000 Current Version: 3.7.120251 - creativegenius 8 years ago

open an explorer window to %systemdrive%\KACE\applications\40 and look at the directory there, is the setup.exe there. if it is lets try manually running this on the failed cast. open a command prompt and navigate to %systemdrive%\KACE\applications\40 and type setup and hit enter, does it work? - SMal.tmcc 8 years ago

That is working fine.I have edited Tasks.xml, and look through the code for the task in question.Then i went to the specified Working Directory %systemdrive%\KACE\Applications\40 and tried to manually run the file (setup.exe).The application got installed.
The problem for me is that i cannot go to all the systems and do this manually.Is it a problem with the latest Kace k 2000 version i am using.Can i provide remote access to troubleshoot this issue? - creativegenius 8 years ago -
I suspect k 2000 Current Version: 3.7.120251 is causing the problems.For checking this, i have created a setup with dell kace k 2000 with the appliance version:3.7.113224.I was able to install office 2013 as a post-installation task. - creativegenius 8 years ago

Just wanted to make sure it ran manually to help troubleshoot. Now you know the install and push is ok, just no execution. - SMal.tmcc 8 years ago

Let me check email the K2000 Principal Engineer to see if 3.7 has any bugs like this. you may have to open a ticket on this one - SMal.tmcc 8 years ago

Let me apply next version update (3.7.116629 Hotfix) and see whether the post install update for office 2013 is working fine or not - creativegenius 8 years ago
