Hi

I;m in need of a bit of help. I deceided to try patching upgrades to Adobe Reader using Landesk patches. The patches fail and Adobe Reader has dissapeared from the pcs it was installed on. Its running on Windows 7 64bit.

The two patches that I ran were amongst 22 other patches for various other products.

Running patch AdbeRdr11000_en_US.exe

Installing patch 18 out of 22 patches

     Failed

Running patch AdbeRdrUpd11004.msp

Installing patch 19 out of 22 patches

     Failed

Except for the entry in the Landesk log, where can I see what the reason for the patches failure is? I suspect it could be a proxy issue.

If I try to install Adobe Reader manually now, the shortcut appears for a couple of seconds on the desk top and the dissapears.

Regards

Mike

Enable verbose logging via the registry and then look at the log.  MIcrosoft allows you to do it yoursellf via the Windows Registry or now has a Fixit applet to make the registry entry for you on this:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/223300
