Adobe Acrobat install

I am trying to install Adobe Acrobat Professional through Group Policies. I am able to do this but when I try to use it, the program says I do not have a valid license. I had created an mst file for this install and have applied it. In it there is a valid serial number but this is not being applied. Any ideas?

Probably you have missed to apply the original mst when creating and/or installing Acrobat, i.e. when creating your mst-file you have to apply an additional transform (AcroPro.mst for Acrobat 6 Pro). When installing apply both transforms by the following command-line:

msiexec /i "[msifile.msi]" /[msi-switches]TRANSFORMS="org.mst;new.mst"

Example:

msiexec /i "AcroPro.msi" /qb-! TRANSFORMS="AcroPro.mst;AcroPro1.mst"

Also, you should use "Installshield Tuner 6.0.1 for Adobe Acrobat" when creating mst's for Acrobat 6 products.

Having done this myself you do the following to do a silent installation using the CD key you already have:

msiexec /i \AcroStan.msi ISX_SERIALNUMBER= /qb!

Hope this helps!

PS. This is only for Writer 6, for 5.5 I had to snapshot it as there was no other way however I am sure I can find the reg keys if you need em!
