------- Additional Comments From cihan@uq.edu.au 2005-23-11 19:46 ------- Ok, I found a workaround for Office 2003. I started the installer with WINEDEBUG=+file and found the following:
warn:file:CreateFileW Unable to create file L"Z:\mnt\O2K3CD\FILES\PFILES\MSOFFICE\OFFICE11\1033\011\SKU011.XML" (status c0000034)
The file SKU011.XML exists on the toplevel directory (ie. mnt/O2K3CD) but the whole folder .../011 does not exist. So I created the folder and copied the file over. However, one more step was necessary to get rid of the error. I have to use native MSXML3 because of this:
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {f6d90f11-9c73-11d3-b32e-00c04f990bb4} could be created for for context 0x1 fixme:ole:CoCreateInstance no classfactory created for CLSID {f6d90f11-9c73-11d3-b32e-00c04f990bb4}, hres is 0x80040111
Anyway, this is just a workaround. Philip, I would appreciate if you could try the same procedure with your Office problem and see if you have the same problem with a file not being found. If so, there must be something wrong in the way MSI looks for files (or similar)...
Cheers
