Hi Jerry,
Thanks for your post.
This is very likely to be a UAC problem. MSI are executed by msiexec.exe
and by default, it will not be run as adiministrator. In our test
environment, while setting up, it will pop up a UAC dialog to let you
choose allow or cancel. It seems that the dialog is not shown up in your
machine.
Please try the following methods:
1. Turn off UAC on your machine (The following steps works in Vista)
Go to control panel -> User Accounts -> Turn User Account Control on or off
-> Disable use UAC setting -> restart machine
Then please have a try and check if the problem exists.
2. Run MSI in command line
Open cmd -> type: runas /user:<UserName> "msiexec /i <MSI path>" -> Type
password of the user -> Run MSI
Please let us know if they work for you. Thanks.
