I'm trying to upgrade from OpenAFS 1.4.1 (installed via the MSI, not as
an upgrade) to OpenAFS 1.5.2 on a Windows XP SP2 workstation. I'm not
having any luck; I'm wondering if anyone can point out what I'm missing here.
OpenAFS 1.4.1 installed via:
msiexec /q /i \\server\install.xp\postinst\msi\afs-1.4.1\afs.msi ALLUSERS=1 REBOOT=Suppress TARGETDIR=C:\ TRANSFORMS=\\server\install.xp\postinst\msi\afs-1.4.1\FILES\openafs-transform.mst
afs.msi is a symlink to openafs-en_US-1-4-1.msi. The transform sets the cell
name, sets an option or two -- nothing clever or complex.
This works fine -- I get a functioning 1.4.1 client with the changes in
the transform applied as anticipated.
For the upgrade, I try:
msiexec /q /fvomus c:\temp\openafs-en_US-1.5.2.msi /l*v c:\afs1.log ALLUSERS=1 REBOOT=Suppress TARGETDIR=C:\ TRANSFORMS=c:\temp\openafs-transform.mst
(The transform was done against the 1.5.2 msi and sets the same options as
the 1.4.1 msi.)
The logfile shows that the installation was successful.
(/afs/cs.wisc.edu/u/t/i/timc/public/afs1.txt)
However, after a reboot it appears as if the 1.5.2 AFS client was never
actually installed. rxdebug still shows that I'm running 1.4.0008.
The 1.5.2 msi and transform work just fine (the client behaves better than
1.4.1 for our purposes) if it's a clean install without prior AFS client.
Any insight as to what I'm doing wrong is appreciated!
Thanks--
