I am trying to run a Software Delivery for the Microsoft Office 2007 Compatibility Pack SP1 after installing the Compatibility Pack using the msiexec.exe /i "O12Conv.msi" /QB-! command line.

My command line is: patch="O12Convsp1-en-us.msp" /QB-





I've also tried doing a combined installation of both the latest Compatibility Pack together with SP1 using the command line: msiexec.exe /i "O12Conv.msi" patch="O12Convsp1-en-us.msp" /QB-!





I've cleaned the registry using Microsoft's tool to ensure there were not legacy pieces of the old Compatibility Pack prior to attempting any of these.



Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Are you just trying to apply a patch to an existing install?



If so, you need to run %windir%\system32\msiexec /p "012Convsp1-en-us.msp" /QB. There are also options for slipstreaming into an admin install point http://www.appdeploy.com/faq/detail.asp?id=48
