[SOLVED] Installing Office365

[srvmac]

Hello Christophe,

Happy New Year and thank you very much for your reply.

So, I can send the Click to Run .exe file; the icon appears on the client machine and it can be found in Add/Remove Programs.

It actually installs Click to Run .exe but doesn't run it. It has to be launched from the client machine, but it's impossible to do this automatically from WAPT.

It only works partially. So I installed the installer remotely, which then had to be launched manually from each machine.

Everything is deployed now, but I would really like to be able to do it from WAPT.

For Office 2016, there were no problems before 365; the program installed correctly.

Thank you very much.

Seb

Hi Seb,

Happy New Year to you too.

It's rather strange that only ClickToRun installs without its Office suite...

Did you check my question from my previous post? (regarding the "Office" folder within the package)

Cheers,
Christophe.

Thank you for your response

Hello,

I'm currently working remotely, I'll take a look at it from the office this week.

I'll check the configuration.

However, deploying Click to Run is quick, but it doesn't launch automatically.

Once launched manually on the machine, it's quite slow because it has to download 2GB of data from Microsoft each time. I'd say between 30 minutes and an hour, depending on network congestion and PC speed.

Since it doesn't work via WAPT, I have no idea how long it would take, but given the packet size over the local network, it probably isn't very fast either.

That's great, thanks in advance!
Looking forward to your reply.
