Extracted msi deployed from SCCM fails to install with error:1500

Deployed MSI(extracted from setup.exe) from SCCM fails to install with error 1500: Another installation is in progress. You must complete that installation before continuing this one.

There are no other processes using windows installer. Manual install has no issues.

Can someone suggest please?

Well its not a lie! There probably was a install happening at that time. 

I would suggest you use the PowerShell App Deployment Toolkit, as this has in script features to check the MSI mutex, before trying to install the MSI - this should work around your issue.

Just to note, if you wait SCCM will retry the install itself, even without the PSDeploy above. Remember SCCM not a instant deployment tool.

  • Thanks for the response.
    Unfortunately, no other process is running. For testing, i have deployed other msi to the same machine which installed with no error. This package still has issue.
    Tried deploying Setup.exe and also extracted MSI , both gave same fail result. - sushma235995 4 years ago
    • Humm. Enable full logging with /l*vx
      so you can see whats going on during the install, might not help much tho, as that error is a standard msi error. Cant really tell you much without the logs.

      Are there any weird CA's that could impact it, unlikely but worth a look? - rileyz 4 years ago
      • +1 to that. need to check logs anyway to determine next steps.
        could i have the setup / software name? - haway_the_lads 4 years ago

        Log file has the above information. Application is asoffice version 2.0.9.7. Seems it installs in User context. SCCM deployment does in system context. Not sure if that is the reason for install failure - sushma235995 4 years ago

according to these switches it is not recommended to exctract the MSI from this exe but to use the msi switches this exe provides which are /V (v has to be capital)
so for a silnet install it would be like .exe /S /V"etc...." 
you need to do a bit trial and error with this one as these kind of exe to msi switches can be funny.

also please do say next time the full vendor name and app coz google was being rude with only asoffice 2.0...

  • Thanks a lot for your time and suggestions.
    I have got confirmation from Vendor that this software doesn't support SCCM deployment. It must be installed manually - sushma235995 4 years ago
