Subject: Lotus Notes 8.5.1 MSI Repair - \deploy\install.xml not found
Feedback Type: Problem
Product Area: Notes Client
Technical Area: Install
Platform: Windows XP client
Release: 8.5.1
Reproducible: Always

Hello Domino Professionals,

I have actual a problem with the notes reinstallation. The installation works very well but when I try to reinstall them via a msiexec /f then I get the message \deploy\install.xml not found.

I found 3 install.xml files on the client. The first is still in the install source at our server, the second in the program folder %programfiles%\IBM\Lotus\Notes\framework\rcp\deploy\install.xml. And at least in my user folder.

Does anybody has a idea or advice how to solve it?

My apprehension is that I get in trouble on the next upgrade or problem on the client which reqire a repair-installation.

Thanks for help,

kind regards

Lars Roth

Use the "msiexec /F" string only with the option "/qb". I cannot explain why because the installation works correct with "/qr".

In the MSI Logfile I saw that it refer to the right install.xml on ther server source.
