Installing ActiveX via User Config Software Install Fails?


hi,

i have activex control (safeview) appears require it's installed each user logs in - have logged in admin, installed it, tested website requires it, logged out, , asked standard user login , test, , website asks activex control installed again.

so setup group policy install safeview.msi activex user config > software installation. when standard user login, software install fails following error:

event type: error
event source: msiinstaller
event category: none
event id: 10005
date:  13/12/2011
time:  11:56:49
user:  domain\test.user1
computer: testpc1
description:
product: safeview -- administrator can run setup

event type: error
event source: application management
event category: none
event id: 102
date:  13/12/2011
time:  11:56:49
user:  domain\test.user1
computer: testpc1
description:
install of application safeview policy swi - safeview deployment failed.  error : fatal error during installation.

i thought group policy software installs ran admin privilages? if not, how can deploy activex control every user logs on pc without a) doing manually, or b) making them local admins?

many thanks

hi,

thanks posting.

software need local administrator privilege install, user level software installation runs in user context, installs fails.

as “martin binder” posted above, can enable “always install elevated privileges” form group policy, designed extends elevated privileges programs.

refer article “deploy office 2010 users not administrators”
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc178988.aspx
we have 4 workarounds:
1. log on computer administrator , install office 2010.
2. use software management tool, such microsoft system center configuration manager 2007, microsoft system center essentials 2007, systems management server (sms) 2003, or third-party software deployment tool.
3. deploy office 2010 computers using group policy computer startup scripts.
4. use application virtualization.

hope helps, , questions or confusion please let know.
