Outlook 2003 SP1 Administrative upgrade to SP2

[vlundh]

Hi all,
I have an administrative installation of Outlook 2003 SP1 (built with
Microsoft Office 2003 Resource kit Custum Installation Wizard). The
installation is working so that's not an issue...
I've followed the article:
htp://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/HA011525741033.aspx
but i cant get the SP2 MSP file to integrate in my administrative
install share.
The commandline i run is:
C:\sp2>msiexec /p mainsp2ff.msp /a c:\o23org\OUTLS11.MSI /qb /lv*
o23orglog.log
and the error i receive is:
You have not entered a valid CD key..
So what am i doing wrong here? Do i have to put the path to my .MST
file (containing the CD key) or what?

riotous - Viktor

Hi,

I don't know for sure, but it looks like you're trying to apply an
_Office_ service pack to an _Outlook_ MSI.

Correct..Outlook 2003 is a member of the Office group, therefore the
Outlook2003 SP2 upgrade included in the Office SP2 servicepack..
I've run the Service Pack manually on a Windows XP machine with Office
XP and Outlook 2003 SP1 and that works fine.

Hi,

Your setup sounds a bit strange; running Office XP with Outlook 2003
SP1. That's a mess.

It's hard to compare running the service pack against a client box and
running it against an Outlook MSI that's part of an AIP. What did the
relevant part of your log file say (the one you created on the command
line) and what error number was returned from MSIEXEC?

I've patched Office 2003 to SP2 on a build that includes Outlook 2003
and rolled it out on a big network without any problems. The main
difference is that I'm patching PRO11.MSI (or whatever). I seem to
remember there was a separate procedure for patching the OWC11.MSI

It's a bit strange your target isn't PRO11.MSI anyway; I mean usually
you apply a TRANSFORM with the components you want (e.g. Outlook only),
but it wouldn't be able to give the MSI file a different name. It's
almost as if you created an AIP for _Outlook_ as opposed to one for
_Office_ that only contains the Outlook App and nothing else...
