Question

Deploy DC Reader with error Error 1334. the file 'natives_blob.bin' cannot be installed

Hello all experts,

Here are the steps that I've done. Please let me know where I did wrong

I downloaded from the adobe ftp a reader AcroRdrDC1800920044_en_US.exe and extract it to get the MSI file using a run command as:

AcroRdrDC1800920044_en_US.exe -nos_o"%homepath%\desktop\ReaderDC"

after the extract, I get a folder including the MSI file and a AcroRdrDCUpd1800920044.msp file.

I slipstreamed that msp file using: msiexec /qb /a acroread.msi /p AcroRdrDCUpd1800920044.msp

Then do the Adobe DC customization to get the transform mst file

Finally I rand msiexec /I Acroread.msi transforms="Acroread.mst"

and I get the error 1334. the file 'natives_blob.bin' cannot be installed because the file cannot be found in the cabinet file.

Can I anyone help?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best!

This happens because you did not make an unpatched installer first.  This is an old thread but I found it today so here are my instructions (to my self ) so here it is:

 

download latest acrobat exe installer, unzip it and run this first command making an UNpatched installer folder where you choose. (I choose c:\acromake)

msiexec /a C:\Users\4505cw\Downloads\AcroRdrDC1901220036_en_US\AcroRead.msi

copy the setup.ini from the unzipped folder to the c:\acromake folder

Then get a patch file (one of those .msp) and point to it in the following command here using the newly created unpatched installer

msiexec /a c:\acromake\AcroRead.msi /p C:\Users\4505cw\Downloads\AcroRdrDCUpd1901220036.msp

Then run the acrobat customization wizard, open and save is enough, an mst will be created Acroread.mst

Same issue here since months.  Help, Adobe.  Please.  Make this deployment process obvious.

I have downloaded the latest AcroRdrDC1801120055_en_US.exe and when I extract the files, there is no natives_blob.bin in the Data1.cab file.

This causes an issue when I try to install via GPO or manually namely:

"Product: Adobe Acrobat Reader DC -- Error 1334.The file 'natives_blob.bin' cannot be installed

because the file cannot be found in cabinet file 'Data1.cab'. This could indicate a network error,

an error reading from the CD-ROM, or a problem with this package."

Anyone know how you can get around this?
