DAO Installation Problem

[ddouglass]

Admin - I think I have found the problem. This is from a MS Knowledge Base Article #916903

Symptom:
You receive the following error message on the client computer when the package is installing:
Error 1706. No valid source could be found for product Product Name. The Windows installer cannot continue.

Cause:
These problems occur because the Windows Installer packages do not have the ALLUSERS property value preset when the packages are created. This causes Windows Installer to set the value to "NULL." When you deploy a package by using SMS 2003, the installation runs under the SYSTEM context. The ALLUSERS property value must be defined if Windows Installer is trying to install as a user who differs from the locally logged-on user. Additionally, when the ALLUSERS property value is set to "NULL," the package performs a "per user installation," and no registry key entry is written to following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall

Resolution:
To resolve this problem, type Name.msi /SwitchesALLUSERS=2 in the Command line box. For example, you can type the following command: install_flash_player_active_x.msi ALLUSERS=2
This transfers the ALLUSERS property to the Setup phase, and the correct data is written to the registry entry key.

Note You cannot use the ALLUSERS property together with the /passive command-line switch.

What this is saying, I believe is that when you scripted for the Jet Engine install the ALLUSERS property was not set......maybe?

GPayne and barrp, when you are installing Hoster are you doing it as an administrator of the computer? If not then try that.

Otherwise, I hope I have found the lead we need to get this one fixed. It is very baffling.
