mkeehn Posted May 29, 2014 Report post Posted May 29, 2014 I've been searching all over and haven't found many people describing a similar issue, and I wondered if anyone here could help. I'm installing Office 2013 w/SP1 during my OSD task sequence. I've created a custom.msp and have it in my updates folder - that is applying correctly. What is not applying, however are all the other patches in the updates folder. I have followed the procedure here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178995(v=office.15).aspx#section4 using the script provided to collect updates from a fully patched Office installation. I put all of them in the updates folder on my network installation source. In my SetupExe...log I am seeing the following first, in which it looks like it detects all the patches and says that most of them are applicable. 2014/05/28 15:04:05:647::[5228] Patch that will not

A short amount of time after the OSD process is complete, software center shows a ton of Office 2013 patches ready to install, adding a significant amount of time to the process. Anyone have any ideas for something I could check or correct? I've tried rebuilding my installation directory from scratch, done the patch collection from different machines, etc., but nothing seems to work. Thanks!

Peter van der Woude Posted May 29, 2014 Report post Posted May 29, 2014 I see a few MSI 1642 error codes, which means that the update is not applicable.. You might want to check if all the updates are for the version you are using. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkeehn Posted May 30, 2014 Report post Posted May 30, 2014 Thanks for the suggestion. I think that those 1642 errors relate to a couple of the updates, but not all. I do think I have figured out what was going on, though. First, in my deployed Office Application under the Programs tab I was just calling "setup.exe" as my Installation program. I assumed that because the updates were in the updates folder on my installation source and that it was applying my custom.msp that it was also checking for updates in that installation source. I checked the log again on a machine I had run my OSD on, and it wasn't even seeing the updates. (The log I previously posted was actually from a machine I had manually run the setup.exe on, a mistake on my part.) It was not looking in the installation source updates folder, though - it was only checking in C:\Windows\ccmcache\7\updates. Therefore, I added the following line to the config.xml file in my proplus.ww folder in my installation source: <SetupUpdates CheckForSUpdates="Yes" SUpdateLocation="\\server\install$\Office\Office2013\updates" /> After doing that and testing out my task sequence, I checked my logs again. The installation updates folder was referenced this time. It still looked very similar to the one I posted above with a lot of Applying patch: and Warning: Unknown stage encountered while completing an MSI progress stage. Stage: 0 errors, but checking in "Programs and Features" I see that all of the office patches were applied. The Office installation takes quite a while during OSD, but I think I'm all set.
