They indicate that ConfigMgr was able to start the command line (IOW the msi installation), but it failed for some reasons. #1 might be a windows installer configuration and #2 (1603) can only be troubleshooted by having a look at the msi logfile.

with Error Code 1603 in Execmgr.log May 20, 2010 by rbalsley 3 Comments Error code 1603 by definition is just a generic windows installer (MSIexec) fatal error code. Yesterday I was seeing this for a software package deployment. The interesting part of this was this was an application that was packaged for us by a third party vendor (a vendor that will remain nameless, but has created some poor packages for us in the past that allows me to write up blog posts like this explaining the solution to their packaging issues), and the application was actually installing on some machines but not all. In total, about 50% had successfully installed the application and the other 50% had failed. So it was a very peculiar push https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/systemcenter/en-US/71f5a589-4a8f-43b9-a11e-6ebd8eeb2662/some-computers-failed-with-this-error-status-in-log-after-advertising-software?forum=configmgrgeneral that piqued my interest. After looking at the advertisement report, I noticed that most of the successful installs were from Windows 7 machines. The failures were coming from Windows XP. So that pointed me to setup a test XP machine and test the push on that platform. Next I looked at the package and how it was created in SCCM (I personally didn't set this up or work with the vendor on packaging it, so this was all new to http://richardbalsley.com/sccm-software-distribution-fails-with-error-code-1603-in-execmgr-log me). I noticed that the install program was using a transform that the vendor had created as well as a requiring ISScript8 be run first before installing. After doing some research, I came across a forum post that made reference to DCOM InstallShield InstallDriver Identity properties being set incorrectly. In my case, we were running this application with administrative rights and silently via SCCM. When a local administrator was logged on during runtime, the application would install fine. It would also install fine if no one was logged on. However if a user was logged on without admin rights, we'd get the 1603 error. So I took a look at the InstallShield InstallDriver Properties from DCOMCNFG. To do this, follow the following steps: From a command line (or start - run) type in dcomcnfg Select Component Services Expand Computers Expand My Computer Expand DCOM Config Right click on InstallShield InstallDriver (in my case I had two of these) Select Properties Select the Identity tab What SHOULD be selected here is The launching User. What I had selected was The interactive user. So by changing both InstallShield InstallDriver identities to The Launching User I was able to run the application successfully as the user which was a low rights account. How to change the Installshield Installdriver Identity via VBScript So I had the problem solved, but I needed a way to do this programatically. I basically needed to run ISScript

Started by EPuariea , Jan 21 https://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/3154-sccm-application-install-package-question/ 2011 04:14 PM Please log in to reply 13 replies to this topic #1 EPuariea EPuariea Newbie http://www.georgealmeida.com/2015/03/the-software-change-returned-error-code-1603/ Established Members 7 posts Posted 21 January 2011 - 04:14 PM I need to build a SCCM application install package but the MSI install needs to run from its host server and not our distribution servers. I have built several install packages and they have been advertised out and they install just fine. However I have two client installs that have to run from the Host server failed to and will not run from the distribution servers. The client install needs to run from the host server. We do not have the knowledge needed to create an install package to run from the host server. Our network admin said he set up the (Network Access Account), I checked the host server and it looks like the account has rights to the server now. When I create the package it's not clear to me what options and settings need to be made to successfully advertise failed to clear the install package from the host server. Has anybody had to create an install like this? If so can someone walk me through the set up? It's worth a coke and a smile if you will. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Can you post the CCMEXEC and EXECMGR logs from a client where it has failed?Thanks for the response Maximus. Yes I just checked and the user I want to do the install as can path out to the share and run the install manually at this point. When I create the install package i am telling the Package to find the MSI on our share, i then build the advertisment but it never shows up on the client. I do not think I am creating the package correctly as I think I am missing something.

March 29, 2015 0 Flares Twitter 0 Facebook 0 Google+ 0 LinkedIn 0 Email -- Filament.io 0 Flares × Troubleshooting application installations in SCCM 2012 R2 can seem daunting but it really isn't. You just need to know where to look. A common error a lot of folks receive is "The software change returned error code 1603" and also "Process terminated with exit code 1603". The first indication of a problem can be found in the Software Center of the client in question. When you open the System Center Configuration Manager 2012 Software Center and attempt to install the application it fails with a generic error "Unable to make changes to your software" or "The software change returned error code 0x643(1603)". Of course the error code will be different depending on the issue. The first question you MUST answer is whether the software package in question is failing to install on ALL or just some clients. Chances are that if the package is failing to install on ALL your clients, then something is most likely wrong with the installation package. This may not always be true but the probability is high that it is. However, if the package is being successfully deployed and installed on many clients but failing on others, then use the steps below to troubleshoot why SCCM is failing to install your application successfully. SCCM has a ton of logs, sometimes I think they may have too many! Depending on what you are troubleshooting, will determine what logs you should be reviewing. In this blog post, we are troubleshooting application installation failures. There are two main logs that I use when troubleshooting application failures; Execmgr.log and AppEnforce.log. The SCCM client logs can be found in the following directory of each client's local hard drive; c:\Windows\CCM\Logs\. The following Technet site has everything you need to know about the purpose of every SCCM log file and what it contains. If you want to be an expert on troubleshooting SCCM issues, check out https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh427342.aspx. The Execmgr.log contains det
