Select 2.4 Install Fails on Virtual Server

Post by roteague »

We are having issues trying to get the install program to run under Windows Server 2003 x64 under virtual server. I keep getting the error: "This installer must be executed from a desktop console session.". I'm running Remote Desktop as: mstsc /console /v:SoftPro.

I was able to get the first part of the install to work (Visual C++ runtime, KB958655)

Any suggestions?
