The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problem installing a .msi file with Group Policy Manager

Asked by magicspringsadmin in MSI, Active Directory

Tags: ,

I have Group Policy Manager running on my Windows Server 2003 machine.  It is currently handeling all group policies just fine.  I am trying to add a new one and I'm running into trouble.

The .msi file I am adding works just fine whenever you run it on a single computer like its an install program.  It was created with Advanced Installer v 6.1.1 freeware.

I made a GPO called "DCM" that contains the msi in question at the following location:
computer configuration > software settings > software installation

I put a link to the GPO in a Organizational Unit called "DCM".  This OU contains a group called "DCM Users" that has all of the usernames that will use this software.  The link is both Enabled and Enforced.  When you reboot one of the computers and login as a user in the OU, nothing installs.

I had a little bit of success when I attached the GPO to a OU that contained computers instead of users, but there is a problem with that.  We have our computers grouped in OUs based on their role in the company.  Inside three of those OUs we have computers that will need the DCM software I'm trying to install right now.  And its not all of the computers in the three OUs that need it.

Another note, when i had a little bit of success with the install I mean that it came up and said it was installing the managed software, but then there were no shortcuts and the program file didn't exist anywhereStart Free Trial
