Hi!

Try using quotas (")
e.g.

EDIT:

"\\Notes 6.5.4de\LotusNotesData0.1.0\LotusNotesData.MSI"

Kind Regards.

I ve already tried it but no change

Strange. I use this method to start installations from my own network shares ( including spaces in the path)
Just how do you start the installation?
From START -> RUN, or any other way?

Kind Regards.

but did you use wihu?

Of course, path names with spaces are allowed. MAC-DUFF, where do you use spaces? Is "\\Notes 6.5.4de" a computer name? Since Windows doesn't support spaces in computernames, this case can't be handled, but Im not sure, may be this also works. Please can you post your INI file and the error message you'll get.

Please run WIHU with /verbose=3 and /log=wihu.log switch.

hi,
perhaps it was a bit unfortunate expressed. smile.gif

this is the path:
description.2=Lotus Notes Data
command.2= "\\bildung.deg\Netzlaufwerke$\DO-IT\Software\kommerziell\Notes 6.5.4de\LotusNotesData0.1.0\LotusNotesData.MSI"
selected.2 = 0
hide.2=0

and this will not work by me :/
BenjaminKalytta
How does the log file look like?

Are you sure you have access to \\bildung.deg\Netzlaufwerke$ ?

You have selected.2=0
of all stupid questions, you are clicking it manually to tell WIHU to install the software, correct?

Don't wanna ask a stupid question, but its usually the simple things that come back to haunt us.
MAC-DUFF
