Installing CS6 at login screen(PC/AAMEE/SCCM 2012)

[prodic]

Hi all,

We are currently looking into how to install CS6 without users having to logon to their PC.

This could be done in CS5.5(files created using AAMEE). But it does not work the same way in CS6(also created using AAMEE).

Have something changed from CS5.5 til CS6 in that regard? Is CS6 dependent on a %user profile% before it will install?

We have to install 400+ different packages/suites etc.  to install and CS6 appears to be the only program(s) that cannot install at the login screen.

Finding a solution would help us tremendously.

The files to CS6 from AAMEE works fine when the user is logged in, so the packages are working as expected - although "ignore running processes" isn't working as expected which is confirmed by Adobe.

Hi,

Nothing has change from installation behvaior. CS6 installation is also supported in logged out user mode.

can you please share PDApp.log and install log files. we need these logs to debug this issue. please take backup of these files and clean these logs. i am suggesting this to get the fresh logs.

can you please confirm the OS version on client machine.

thanks,

Hi,

I would love to send you both logs, but I can only send you those files once a user is actually logged in - in which case the install works.

I'll reinstall a PC and see what files I might be able to obtain.

We are looking into a scenario where no user have ever been logged in and the installation would happen in "logged out user mode".

We are installing on Windows 7(x64).

We had some external consultants look at our .msi-files and they confirmed that they should be able to install in "logged out user mode".

We are now looking into our SCCM-setup to figure out what might be wrong since CS6 fails and CS5.5 did not.

Can anyone confirm that you've been able to install CS6 at the login screen? Especially a scenario where no user have been logged in at all.
