Hello all,
I’m coming here to share my problem hoping you all will be able to help me, like you have in the past. We are running XP Pro SP2 w/ Office 2003 SP1. The office install is done using an MST file and configured using the OPS file, both created via the resource kit. In our setup of office, a local source directory is created, thereby allowing for adding and removing features, and office updates without being prompted for the CD or mapped drive. The HD is partition with C: (OS and program files) and D: (user personal ). The problem I am having is Office is not updating. Updates have failed from WSUS and manually. In researching the issue, I came across this MS Article 903776. The gist of the article is, since partition D: stores the local source directory, and is bigger, that’s where it’s looking to copy the update files. You will see it’s suggested resolution is to disable the local source using LisTool and a switch on every computer. This will have to be done everytime updates are needed. As you can see, administratively this will become a BIG headache. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
