We have a windows 2003 server.
Added the software package under group policy for my test OU.
On reboot of my test machine the folowing error appeared in the event application log
"The group policy framework should call the extension in the snchronous foreground policy refresh. "
According to microsoft support doco the policy "Computer Configuration>Administrative Templates>Sytem>Login>Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon" is not set by default. This allows for the user to get their screen up more quickly. However for software installtion it means that itcan take a couple of boots to install software.
I enabled this policy.
The next error in the event application log was "Installation Source for this product was not available".
The share where the package was located had access fo the adinistrator only. I added read access for Authenticted Users and the installation was succesful.
