Hi
We do encounter issues with the installation of vCenter Server and SSO. As it seems, those setups require an interactive session to be installed successfully. The other VMware components install fine.
SSO: The required prerequisites are not installed.
vCenter Server:The MSI InstallUISequence is required to fill some properties and execute actions for a successful installation. Installation with only the InstallExecuteSequence (/qn) fail. There also seems to be some msi code, that reads the logged-on user. And this seems to return 0 when being executed under the system account.
User | Not Interactive Session | Interactive Session |
System | Fail* | Fail* |
Administrator | Fail* | Success** |
*Generic MSI error code 1603.
**error code 0.
Does anybody have a solution for this problem, because the deployment will be triggered through puppet agents and/or desired state configuration (dsc) on windows servers.
Thanks.
