setup could not find any available products to install
I am trying to install office 2007 (32bit) volume license on a server 2008 R2 (64bit). The server is set up as a terminal server 12 licenses. No other version of office has been installed on the server. when I run the setup I get the following error message "setup could not find any available products to install ", any help would be greatly appreciated

there is no add/remove programs per-say just programs, this is Server 2008 R2 running as an RDP role, if you are talking about "Install Application on remote desktop" tried it, same results.
Please read these links and get back to me on any remaining issues.

Is this a volume license copy of office?
OEM office 2007 will not install on TS.
I am not sure about retail pack (FPP)

Also although apparently not required for 2008 TS try putting the server in install mode via command prompt first
#> change user /install

You can also get this message if you are using an "upgrade" CDROM

Please note that you will need an Office License for each TS or RDP CAL that you have.
