Cannot Upgrade VMware View Client 5.X / Windows Installer Error.

You try to install View Agent 5.X on Windows 6 64BIT.

Error: Event 1013, Msinstaller "Product View Agent -- The System must be rebooted before installation can continue.

Existing Versions

  • Every time you install it should reboot
  • Option /c to clean does not do something
  • You did remove VMware Tools
  • You did uninstall old Version of View
  • The account has enough permission and is Local Admin

 

MSI Windows Installer Logfile you get with:

VMware-viewagent-x86_64-5.3.5-3038335.exe /V"/l c:\drivers\viewlog.txt REBOOT=Reallysuppress"

MSI (c) (EC:E4) [13:12:26:910]: Doing action: VM_MustReboot

Aktion 13:12:26: VM_MustReboot.

Aktion gestartet um 13:12:26: VM_MustReboot.

Das System muss neu gestartet werden, bevor die Installation fortgesetzt werden kann.

MSI (c) (EC:E4) [13:12:29:317]: Transforming table Error.

 

Check if there are pending reboots ore name of files:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto Update\RebootRequired

 

Normally there is something really wrong in the Windows Installer Database then or the Installer is missing some MSP/MSI Source Files or Transforms.
