Creative Cloud 2020 Managed Package fails installation

Hi all

 

Is anyone else experiencing the Creative Cloud managed package failing to install?

 

The build date is 5/11/2019. The CC2019 packages were also failing recently, but worked again as I created another build.

 

The installation of these packages are within a HyperV VM, Windows 10 1903 with the latest patches.

 

Thanks!

I've tried installing on a physical machine with very little running. Still failing.

 

Here's the log collector output.

 

 


Ouch. Ignore me. Created a new package and it miraculously worked.

This has been driving me up the wall lately and I finally nailed down exactly where the problem is.  I don't really understand WHY it is a problem, but I do now it fixes things.

 

Background:

I tried to deploy the CC app via my software distribution tool (Quest Kace KBox) and had mixed results - sometimes it installed, sometimes not.  I never got it to work on a machine that never had CC before.  The really odd part was that I could take the exact same zip the KBox uses, manually extract it and it would work.  It turned out the only difference was that the folders extracted by the KBox had the archive attribute, but manually extracting with Bandizip did not set that attribute.

 

Solution:

After a lot of testing, I nailed it down to the Archive attribute on the build\ASU folder.  Either uncheck that in the folder properties (apply to just that folder) or use the "attrib -a" command on that folder in a script.  After I did that, it installed perfectly.

 

I can only assume that it is parsing the text output of some command and having the attribute set it screwing that up.  It should not have any impact on the actual running of the software, but there you have it...

Hi Hubert,

Thanks for the contact.

Adobe has conducted limited testing of some Creative Cloud and Creative Suite products in virtualized or server-based environments. Adobe Acrobat DC supports virtual environments. 

If you run into issues on virtualized environments, Adobe Support can help on a best-effort basis. Adobe support may not be able to resolve your issue depending on type of virtualization technologies.

It would be good if you provide us the applications included in the package and the Adobe installation log using Adobe Log Collector tool.

Looking forward to your reply.

 

Regards,

    Hi Sumit,

     

    Unfortunately nothing else was running. The log was collected when the user account was first created after booting into the image.
