It's needed to take care where you put the installation files for Office14!
It's important for some lines: "Command Path" and others you can see inside this example

Example:
I extract the files inside: %systemdrive%\Office14
You can see that inside my "config.xml" file, and you can adapt to your needs!

Quote

Configuration Product="ProPlusr">

<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />

<Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Office Professional Plus Setup(*).txt" />

<PIDKEY Value="QWERTZUIOPASDFGHJKLYXCVBN" />

<USERNAME Value="your full name" />

<USERINITIALS Value="Initiales" />

<COMPANYNAME Value="particulier" />

<INSTALLLOCATION Value="%programfiles%\Microsoft Office" />

<!-- <LIS CACHEACTION="CacheOnly" /> -->

<LIS SOURCELIST="%systemdrive%\Office14" />

<DistributionPoint Location="%systemdrive%\Office14" />

<!-- <OptionState Id="ACCESSFiles" State="Absent" Children="force" /> -->

<!-- <OptionState Id="OptionID" State="absent" Children="force" /> -->

<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />

<Command Path="%windir%\system32\msiexec.exe" Args="/i
%systemdrive%\Office14\ProPlusr.WW\ProPlusrWW.msi" QuietArg="/qn" ChainPosition="after" Execute="install" />

</Configuration>


I've used "WinRar" and expand inside %systemdrive%\Office14
And after this command for silent install:



Quote

@echo off
start /Wait %systemdrive%\Office14\SETUP.EXE /config %systemdrive%\Office14\ProPlusr.WW\CONFIG.XML
exit


If you want you can also use 7z SFX Module to make an silent installer for Office14!

The two methods works fine for me!

Try my "config.xml" example above with your values!
And delete and change these lines inside your "config.xml":

Quote

<Logging Type="Verbose" Path="C:\SYSTEM.SAV\Logs" Template="OFF2010PRO.Log" />
<Setting Id="OEM" Value="1" />

Thanks to tell me what appends!

*Edit:
1) Where your copy of "Office14" come from?
2)You have set twice inside your "config.xml":

Quote

<Logging Type="Verbose" Path="C:\SYSTEM.SAV\Logs" Template="OFF2010PRO.Log" />
<Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Office Professional Plus Setup(*).txt" />

Use only the second line

It seems the problem is maybe with imgburn!
But it's needed to check the "config.xml"!
I've no problem with WinRar to make an archive!
You can also use 7zip!

7zip is complicated for me to create silent installations I use winrar only.
I created a batch file with this code

 @echo off 
start /Wait %systemdrive%\Office14\SETUP.EXE /config %systemdrive%\Office14\ProPlusr.WW\CONFIG.XML 
exit


I get error config.xml not found

1) I see that the path isn't correct inside the window and doesn't match the correct version of Office14:

Computer > Se7en (C:) > Office14 > ProPlus.WW

2) It seems that your product is:
<Configuration Product="ProPlus">

You must adapt the config.xml!!

Some help here:
Config.xml file in Office 2010

You can see the name of your product inside the first line of "config.xml".
And the folder is ProPlus.WW

It seems that you have:
<Configuration Product="ProPlus">

Same thing inside "config.xml". The lines aren't the same:

Quote

Command Path="%windir%\system32\msiexec.exe" Args="/i
%systemdrive%\Office14\ProPlus.WW\ProPlusWW.msi" QuietArg="/qn" ChainPosition="after" Execute="install" />


With my example, I've downloaded the Office14 MSDN version with ProPlusr.WW folder!

Change the batch file for your needs also:

Quote

@echo off
start /Wait %systemdrive%\Office14\SETUP.EXE /config %systemdrive%\Office14\ProPlus.WW\CONFIG.XML
exit


For you it would be:
config.xml:

Quote

<Configuration Product="ProPlus">

<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />

<Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Office Professional Plus Setup(*).txt" />

<PIDKEY Value="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" />

<USERNAME Value="your full name" />

<USERINITIALS Value="Initiales" />

<COMPANYNAME Value="Company" />

<INSTALLLOCATION Value="%programfiles%\Microsoft Office" />

<!-- <LIS CACHEACTION="CacheOnly" /> -->

<LIS SOURCELIST="%systemdrive%\Office14" />

<DistributionPoint Location="%systemdrive%\Office14" />

<!-- <OptionState Id="OptionID" State="absent" Children="force" /> -->

<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />

<Command Path="%windir%\system32\msiexec.exe" Args="/i
%systemdrive%\Office14\ProPlus.WW\ProPlusWW.msi" QuietArg="/qn" ChainPosition="after" Execute="install" />

</Configuration>


Check if you see the file ProPlusWW.msi inside the folder ProPlus.WW

Sorry I don't see at the first time!

You can make this install even lighter to not install even more stuff if you use the Office Customization Tool, extract/copy the" Admin" folder to your root office folder and run

setup /admin


Customize the install the way you want, save the .msp file and install it with

setup /adminfile name.msp

You can see in this topic that I did some testing and others members also. It appears that it's not possible to delete some components without getting errors and the installation fails, if you try to delete some components inside your installation Office14 source!

It must in any case needed to set the parameters inside "config.xml"; even if you want to use the "custom.msp" file!

Of course it's possible to choose do not install some components, with "config.xml" or "custom.msp" files, but not making "lite" at this time!

I'm using rt7lite to make an windows 7 unattended and I want to include office 2010 as well.
That program allows to add only .exe files.
I want to add Office 2010 MSDN using .xml file or msp file.
How should I do it ?

You can use and read:
7z SFX Modified Module and Tools
and create an "Office14.exe" with SFX module and you don't need any switches!

1) You need to use 7zip and 7zsd.sfx

You need to configure "config.xml" first.

How to:
General information about the modified module

2) You need to create a "config.txt" file:

Example:

Quote

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="2"
RunProgram="setup.exe /config .\ProPlus.WW\config.xml"
;!@InstallEnd@!


3) You need to create a batch file "config.bat" to run after you have made first an archive with 7zip:

Quote

copy /b 7zsd.sfx + config.txt + OFFICE14.7z OFFICE14.exe


Usage examples

Once done you can install with RT Se7en Lite!

You can download the "3 files" here and adapt "config.txt" to your needs (mine is ProPlusr.WW):
OFFICE_2007_2010_distribuable.rar

With 7zip and 7zsd.sfx.

About the "config.xml" file customized you can use the same parameter like your "config.txt":

Paths for config.xml must match (config.txt and config.xml)!

RunProgram="setup.exe /config .\ProPlusr.WW\config.xml"

Example (Office Profesionnal 2010 Plus MSDN):
(adapt to your needs if you need to write ProPlus and ProPlusWW inside "config.xml")

config.xml

Quote

<Configuration Product="ProPlusr">

<Display Level="none" CompletionNotice="no" SuppressModal="Yes" AcceptEula="Yes" />

<Logging Type="standard" Path="%temp%" Template="Microsoft Office 2010 Professionnel Plus Setup(*).txt" />

<PIDKEY Value="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" />

<USERNAME Value="Full name" />

<USERINITIALS Value="MM" />

<COMPANYNAME Value="company" />

<INSTALLLOCATION Value="%programfiles%\Microsoft Office" />

<!-- <LIS CACHEACTION="CacheOnly" /> -->

<!-- <SOURCELIST Value="%temp%\Office14" /> -->

<!-- <DistributionPoint Location="%temp%\Office14" /> -->

<SetupUpdates CheckForSUpdates="Yes" SUpdateLocation=".\updates" />

<!-- <OptionState Id="OptionID" State="absent" Children="force" /> -->

<Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="NEVER" />

<Command Path="%WINDIR%\system32\msiexec.exe" Args="/i .\ProPlusr.WW\ProPlusrWW.msi" QuietArg="/qn" ChainPosition="after" Execute="install" />

</Configuration>


If you want install updates in the same time you can add this line:

<SetupUpdates CheckForSUpdates="Yes" SUpdateLocation=".\updates" />

Just extract the msp files inside the folder UPDATES

*Edit: OFFICE_2007_2010_distribuable.rar updated (same link above)

In your example you said to use like this: RunProgram="setup.exe /config .\ProPlusr.WW\config.xml"
This example is for the VLK(volume license), right ?
Because the MSDN has only and .exe file.
How should I set the paths for MSDN version ?

Sorry for all the questions. I'm a beginner in this(noob) and I want to understand and learn.

Extract the files and use:

Start | Run

C:\ProfessionalPlus.exe /extract:C:\Office14

And you will see all files inside the folder "C:\Office14" for your Office Profesionnal Plus 2010, and you can customize your copy, with "config.xml", like the example above.

*Edit:
My example is for MSDN version
It's not for VLK. It's for your personnal copy you have downloaded!

Other links:
New Updated Tutorial] Making A 7-Zip Switchless Installer

How to make a 7-Zip Switchless Installer

*****************************************************************************

*Edit:

HOW TO

7zip must be installed in your OS!

1) Extract the files with: Start | Run

C:\ProfessionalPlus.exe /extract:C:\Office14
(for other versions, just copy the full DVD Office 2010 inside the folder: "C:\Office14")

2) Inside the folder "C:\Office14\ProPlusr.WW" modify the original "config.xml" file to your needs
(you can save the original file and rename this one as "Original_config.xml")

* You can add the new updates inside the folder: C:\Office14\Updates (msp files)

3) Download the 3 files: 7zsd.sfx - config.bat and config.txt (inside OFFICE_2007_2010_distribuable.rar)

https://skydrive.liv...72&sc=documents

4) Put the 3 files ("7zsd.sfx" - "config.bat" - "config.txt") inside the folder: C:\Office14

5) Select all the files except the 3 files (7zsd.sfx - config.bat - config.txt) and right click and choose 7zip to create an archive

6) Create an archive with 7zip
- Rename the file as OFFICE14.7z inside 7zip
- Format: 7z
- Select: Compression level: Ultra
- Compression method: LZMA
- Dictionnary size: 64MB
- Word size: 64
- And OK

7) Once done you have now the new archive: OFFICE14.7z inside the folder: C:\Office14

8) Execute the command: config.bat

9) Your new Office14.exe is created and you don't need silent switchers for the installation!

10) You can integrate with RT Se7en Lite, or others programs, for an unattended install.

Attention:
It's needed to make some changes for Office Profesionnal 2010 (NON MSDN) inside "config.xml" and "config.txt", because paths and folders aren't the same:
ProPlusWW and ProPlusWW.msi

Just adapt the names to your needs!

OFFICE_2007_2010_distribuable.rar updated with new files and a folder (Office_Pro_2010) for
Office Professionnal 2010 non MSDN

Many thanks!
You can't delete programs like Access or Excel or some others: you will get errors and the installation fails.
Maybe there is a "workaround", but I don't know!
But you can choose do not install some of them adding lines inside "config.xml"
Help here:
Config.xml file in Office 2010

Config.xml file OptionState ID values for Office 2010

Example:
Adding this line inside config.xml so you do not install Access:

Quote

<OptionState Id="ACCESSFiles" State="absent" Children="force" />
