This installation cannot be run by directly launching the MSI package. You must run setup.exe. But this time when I pressed OK it didnt terminate, instead it was hanging with the dialog box saying. If I am not mistaken this problem occurs in version 7 too. Since I didn't find InstallShield Developer 8 Group I post my question here. Whenever i run the patch i get this message: '1: this installation cannot be run by directly launching the MSI package. You must run setup.exe' any ideas?

Hi guys, I am trying to use the patch design feature on the InstallShield Developer 8. Whenever i run the patch i get this message: '1: this installation cannot be run by directly launching the MSI package.

You must run setup.exe' any ideas? When i compile the patch i get a warning: 'ISDEV: warning -6497: Patch Creation Warning: ProductVersions between Target and Upgraded images do not match; do you want to proceed anyway?' Does it have anything to do with it?

Thanks in advance for your help, Oren.

I had a similar problem with installer in 64 bit Win 7. Tried all the fixes and nothing worked. There was no MachineThrottling in my registry. The problem turned out to be that Installer Service was 'disabled'.

No idea how that happened nor if the fix will be permanent, but it works now. Type 'services' in the start box then Enter 2. Scroll down to 'Windows Installer' 3. Right click & check status and startup type 4. If the service is 'disabled' change it to 'automatic' & 'Apply' 5.

After startup type changes click 'Start' 6. Service should be set to 'Automatic' startup and status should be 'started' 7. Click 'OK' Installer should now work and should be turned on automatically when Windows starts from now on. I am having this problem too: when I insert the DVD with Microsoft office 2007 enterprise on its runs the autorun and gets to the screen saying 'gathering necessary files' but never gets any further and ends up being closed down. I have tried all the fixes listed on here but there is no machinethrottling label and the others don't work. There has never been anything other than Microsoft Office 2010 starter pack on my laptop which I uninstalled to install office 2007. Does anyone have any ideas?

I'm on Windows 7 64 bit and going slightly mad! Www tha branded queen hindi full movie download online. Got my new laptop this morning and now can't use it Please please help! There are a number of things you can do to fix this problem. Don't rush to reinstall just yet Have you checked to see if the Windows Installer service has been disabled? You can check in one of two ways, depending on your preference.

Start > Search Box > Services.msc. Look for the service titled Windows Installer and make sure that it has not been disabled. You might also want to check and see the security context that it is running under. You would do this by clicking on the LogOn tab and making sure that Local System radio button is checked. The other way is to open a command line window and type: SC Query MSIServer.

If you get any kind of error back, then there might be a problem with the service. You can also unregister and re-register the windows installer service: Open a CMD Prompt/ Or the start Box, and type msiexec /unreg.

Wait about ten seconds and then type msiexec /regserver. Now trying installing or uninstalling your application again. Make sure to empty all your temp files (system and IE) as well. And you can also try running SFC/ScanNow. Hey fellas, Well after completing basically every step and fix you guys have listed here I still had no joy on resolving my problem.

So I did some poking around on the internet and in Windows 7 and I finally resolved my MSI install issues. Actually it wasn't just related to MSI it was other installations as well like MSN Messenger ect. So what was causing my installs from getting the 2203 error and failing? - My temp director folder!!! In windows 7 my TMP and TEMP directories are set by default to:%USERPROFILE% AppData Local Temp Not sure but some programs had issues using this temp directory maybe due to it's location or rights I'm honestly not sure.

But what I did to resolve this was change the locaton of my Temp Directory. Then I changed the two Values TMP and TEMP to point to the new location C: Temp. Now I can install any program including MSI's. Finally this has been an issue for over a month and has been driving me crazy. Anyway here is the step by step instructions if you choose to try it. (Im using Windows 7 btw so this might be different) 1- Create folder C: Temp 2- Navigate to Control Panel/User Accounts/Change My Environment Variables 3- Change the value of both TMP and TEMP to C: Temp (Default is%USERPROFILE% AppData Local Temp) That's it you don't even need to reboot.
