Altiris Error Code 1603
on to learn how to sidestep this speed bump. The following is a non-exhaustive list of known causes for this error: Short file name creation is disabled on the target machine. An Install Script custom action is prototyped incorrectly. A file is locked and cannot be overwritten. The Microsoft Windows Installer Service is not installed correctly. The Windows Temp folders are full. The setup was corrupted after altiris ds 6.9 sp6 installation and, therefore, fails with this error during un-installation. An older version of Install Shield Developer is being used. A general error occurred during the installation. Print and File sharing is not installed or enabled when installing MSDE 2000. How to Avoid this Error The following solutions have resolved this error in the majority of cases: Make sure short file name creation is enabled on the target machine. You can check to ensure that the target machine does not have short file name creation disabled by navigating to the following registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem Make sure the value "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" is equal to 0. This indicates that short file name creation is enabled. A value of 1 indicates that this functionality is disabled. You should change the value to 0. After modifying this value, the target machine should be rebooted before attempting to launch the setup again. Note: If the target machine should normally have short file name creation disabled, it can be disabled after the install completes by resetting "NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation" to 1 and rebooting. To ensure that the Windows Installer Service is properly installed and configured, it is recommended that users install the file InstmsiA.exe on Windows 95/98/Me or InstmsiW.exe

1603 installing package. " Anyone got any Ideas? rmusick, Jan 8, 2009 #1 jharings Member This file altiris software is just the stub (or bootstrap, if you prefer) launcher that the push\pull mechanisms use. If you want to install the agent manually, you need to use AEXNSC.exe, http://www.symantec.com/connect/articles/understanding-error-1603-fatal-error-during-installation located in the \program files\altiris\notification server\nscap\bin\win32\x86\nsclient package (I *think* that's right). Note that running it from this .exe will leave the server name blank, and you will have to run (several options actually) a method to populate this name. The easiest option is the run the aexagentutil.exe /server:yourservername. The util is in the install directory of http://www.altirigos.com/forums/threads/altiris-agent-ns-agent-error-1603-on-install.10343/ where you put the agent. jharings, Jan 8, 2009 #2 rmusick Member Thanks for the info, I found my problem though. I had another file that needed to be copied, and didn't have the "copy all directory files" box checked. rmusick, Jan 9, 2009 #3 (You must log in or sign up to reply here.)

Also, is this occuring on all packages to all PCs or is this just to a certain PC. Can you install with the same MSI string locally on that PC if it is a PC dependent problem. Anyways her is a link
