When the error is encountered, no error details are shown, just a message box with the word "Error" in it, and nothing else. You have to go spelunking in the Event Log to actually find any error information. That is more what this report is about - it would be nice to be able to have a little more detail than just "Error" when a failure occurs. An image of an example is attached.
The event log detail is:
Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: xxxxxx. Product Version: 4.5.17.720. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: xxxx.. Installation success or error status: 1603.
Now, I searched for 1603 and none of the articles really apply because since the only difference is All Users vs. Current User. Windows settings are the same, TEMP directory is the same, everything about the environment is the same.
MSI logs do not seem to provide anything intelligent, either.
So, one, if we could get a proper error message and not just "Error" that would be great. Second, if there are any additional known or suspected things that would cause failures specific to All Users installs, please let me know.
Thanks!
Peace!
