WAPT and MS Office

In that case, I have a solution, like any other; you can do something like this at the beginning of your setup.py:

Code: Select all

softname = 'Microsoft Office Standard 2007'
check_installed_soft = installed_softwares(softname)
if check_installed_soft:
     run('%programfiles%\Microsoft Office 2007\uninstall.exe')

I haven't given any updates, but I managed to uninstall and then automatically install another version:

Here's my code, if it can help you:

Code: Select all

uninstallstring =['"%s\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Setup.exe" /uninstall Standard /config "%s\Common Files\uninstall.xml"' % (programfiles32,programfiles32) ]

def install():
    softname = 'Microsoft Office Professionnal Plus 2007'
    softname_2 = 'Microsoft Office Standard 2007'
    check_installed = installed_softwares(softname)
    check_installed_2 = installed_softwares(softname_2)
    if check_installed_2:
        print('la version standard est installée')
    else:
        print('Copie des fichiers uninstall')
        filecopyto("uninstall.xml",os.path.join(programfiles32,"Common Files"))
        filecopyto("uninstall_pro.xml",os.path.join(programfiles32,"Common Files"))
        run('"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Setup.exe" /uninstall ProPlus /config "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\uninstall_pro.xml"')
        print('Installation du paquet aiz-office2007_std (office12)')
        cmd ='"setup.exe" /adminfile "install.MSP"'
        run(cmd,timeout=1200,accept_returncodes=[1641,3010,0])
        print('Fin installation')

I see your message about maintenance, but I found a very similar solution thanks to the following links:
