I may be a bit dense but I cant get the Administration Console to deploy to any clients. I always get the failed (0x00000005) error message even though I am using a domain admin account.
Any ideas?
Jon
Check out the file \data\log\aswRInst.log. You can even post it here (renaming it first to .txt as the forum SW will refuse it otherwise).
BTW Grin icon for such a posting?? :o 
Thanks
Vlk
heres the log - I hope you understand it better than me (wont take much!)
Is there the file
C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Management Tools\InstPkgs\setup_av_net.exe
I.e. have you copied the InstPkgs folder to the management tools directory as adviced in the readme.txt file?
That will be it - totally missed that when I red the readme. Thanks
Wait a moment, but how did you prepare the installation package then?
just went to the installation packages and went for default
Oh so please first copy the InstPkgs folder;
then create a regular Install Package (going thru the wizard).
And finally, set that Install Package to the deployment task.
Keep us updated. 
Thanks
Vlk
just tried that now and I get a differnt message - Unknown error cannot start “client install” task

this is the section from the latest log
Is it? I mean, it says 05/25/04 13:54
oppse wrong end of the log - but looking there wasnt anything else in the right end of the log
Is the new install package set in the task? Are the login accounts set, and are they set correctly? (i.e. they include the domain name correctly, as described in the Quick Start Guide)
Sorry for so many questions.
Thanks
Vlk

OK this is appearently invalid specification of the logon account.
Is the machine IT-OFFICE in a domain??
That is, is the account you’re trying to use a domain account?
it-office is in the cherwellcurric domain and the systemadmin account is the account admin account (how many accounts!)
and yes I know the log does not say that account but I the log for the account that I suggested is the same
If you want to use domain account, you have to prepend 'domainname' before the account name.
Right. You need to specify the following:
Domain: cherwellcurric
Username: cherwellcurric\Administrator (or whatever the domain account is)
Password:
Please see the Quick Start Guide – it is described there with extra emphasis.
Thanks
Vlk
Found the problem. In the installation package where you put an account that runs the application I did not put the domain in. It works now.
Jon
Exactly – the way you entered it is legal but is interpreted as local account instead of domain account… (as can be seen in the log).
Thanks
Vlk
