So, when I run the command manually: The launcher appears with the choice between Install and Custom.
When I choose Install, I get the configuration I entered in my MSP file (the license, the installation without access).
But I just realized my mistake: I put my MSP in the UPDATES folder, and now when I select the "install now" button, the installation starts. So, can I try a WAPT package again?

That explains your problem.
You can therefore try a WAPT package again.

I just tried the manual command "setup.exe /adminfile "install_sans_access.msp" and it worked. However, the window (office) appears and disappears.
When I run my package on my machine, I get information that the task is complete but nothing is installed.
When I go into the Temp files, I get the following log:

The logs don't tell me anything.
If the command `setup.exe /adminfile "install.msp"` succeeds when you test it manually (without any manual intervention on your part), but your WAPT package doesn't work, that's quite strange.

Here's my procedure:
1) I run the "setup /admin" command to create my MSP configuration file.
2) I create a package with the command "wapt-get make-template path\setup.exe".
3) I modify my Python files as described above.
4) I run the package build with "wapt-get build-upload path\aiz-office2007-wapt".
5) The package automatically uploads to my repositories.
6) I associate it with a machine.
7) I run a package update and installation on that machine.
I just succeeded!! I'm now going to try your uninstallation procedure.

I'm having some trouble uninstalling.
I understand that I need to insert an "uninstall.xml" file, but I don't understand how it works.
I added this to my Python script: "uninstallstring = 'MsiExec.exe /qn /X{90120000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}'" without success.
Any ideas?

Here is the content of the uninstall.xml file for Office Pro Plus:
Code: Select all
<Configuration Product="ProPlus">
<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />
</Configuration>
Here is the uninstall string that I specify at the top of setup.py:
Code: Select all
uninstallstring =['"%s\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE15\Office Setup Controller\Setup.exe" /uninstall ProPlus /config "%s\Common Files\uninstall.xml"' % (programfiles32,programfiles32) ]
Note that for the uninstall to work, the file must be copied to %programfiles%\Common Files\
I copy it using this command during software installation:
Code: Select all
filecopyto("uninstall.xml",os.path.join(programfiles32,"Common Files"))

I'm writing to let you know that I've successfully deployed and uninstalled my Office 2007 package.
Now I need to uninstall the existing Microsoft Office Professional installation and replace it with Office Standard 2007. Is this possible?
I tried creating a new Office Standard package, but it doesn't reinstall Office; it copies it alongside the existing installation. So I have two entries in Windows, and Access is still present.

When creating the MSP, it is normally possible to check "Uninstall previous versions of Microsoft Office".
Otherwise, you have to resort to scripting the uninstallations.

The problem is that it does not recognize the already installed version of Office Pro; it adds a program line in Office Standard and therefore does not uninstall Access.
