Is there a list that deciphers installer return codes? I see "fatal error during installation" failures on occasion with a return code of 1603, as an example. Would knowing what return code 1603 meant provide me with any more information on what the fatal error was?

Thanks

Unfortunately error 1603 is a generic Windows Installer error.

You can test your deployment package steps. For testing the commands:
  • Copy the Result command of the failed deployment package.
  • Use the exact path defined under Deployment\Security options.
  • Paste the command into the command prompt of a machine where the deployment failed.
  • This should help you identify the cause of the issue. Only when the command works in Command Prompt will it work in Lansweeper as well.
  • If the command worked then we recommend that you check that the command has been added correctly to your package and the parameter are also correctly added to the parameter field.
If a step works in the Command Prompt, it should work in the deployment package.
