Hello,
Just wanted to start off saying that you for reading. Now into my problem.
I am trying to install Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 17.009.20044 with SCCM 2012 R2.
i have tried around 20-30 different scripts to get this to install with no luck. I found an article of how to slipstream the MSP files into the MSI using command line and I am also using an MST.
I have a powershell script that copies the installation files from the share to a target folder on the C:\
I then have powershell run a batch file and that code is down below:
"C:\Source\AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2015.exe" /product=1 /installpath=Default /silent
msiexec.exe /i "C:\Source\AdobeInstallFiles\AcroRead.msi" PATCH="C:\Source\AdobeInstallFiles\AcroRdrDCUpd1700920044.msp" TRANSFORMS="C:\Source\AdobeInstallFiles\AcroRead.mst" /qn
Now when i ran the MSI through the adobe customization wizard it says i must use a setup.ini file so i created a blank one. On the adobe website it says I don't need a .ini for installation using command line and MSI. It specfically says that the .ini is used for .exe which I am not using. This has me very confused and I need some clarification.
Now I tried using my method but it keeps saying this:
(Note the uninstall of the pervious version of adobe works great with the cleaner. The only reason I am using the cleaner is because adobe will not install on top of another version and this seemed to be the only way to remedy that)

This is what my installation files look like. Hopefully everything looks correct.

Here is the setup.ini which the wizard forced me to generate.
(Note: I added in the MSI AND PATCH lines)

What am i doing wrong?
