Launch setup.exe from a service
(Installshield 2008 basic-msi)
I'm trying to launch a setup.exe in silent mode from a windows service. The service is running as local-system and calls setup.exe /s /v/qn.
Unfortunately, execution of setup.exe fails with the following error-log:
MSI (c) (14:A8) [17:05:03:812]: Machine policy value 'Debug' is 0
MSI (c) (14:A8) [17:05:03:812]: Client-side and UI is none or basic: Running entire install on the server.
MSI (c) (14:A8) [17:05:03:812]: Grabbed execution mutex.
MSI (c) (14:A8) [17:05:03:812]: No connection to server could be established. error: 0x80070005
MSI (c) (14:A8) [17:05:03:812]: MainEngineThread is returning 1601
Has anybody an idea how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance, H.

The error is same as yours and probably you can try the solutions listed there. Good Luck.
My error was another: the service was not running as local system but as a local service. Changing it to local system the setup could be launched successfully.
