    text
    <p>I have a deployment project built with Visual Studio 2008 that fails to install. It's using the default GUI. The error occurs when it transitions to the Progress page. The GUI error message is:</p> <blockquote> <p>Error reading from file F:\Packages\Test\Release\Test.msi. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.</p> </blockquote> <p>If I run the MSI from the command line with <code>/l*</code>, I get a lot of errors about GUI elements being incorrectly sized, e.g.:</p> <blockquote> <p>DEBUG: Error 2826: Control Line1 on dialog WelcomeForm extends beyond the boundaries of the dialog to the right by 3 pixels The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2826. The arguments are: WelcomeForm, Line1, to the right</p> </blockquote> <p>I also get a more verbose version of the error displayed at runtime:</p> <blockquote> <p>MSI (c) (08:EC) [17:06:27:026] Product: Test -- Error 1305. Error reading from file F:\Packages\Test\Release\Test.msi. System Error 1008. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it.</p> </blockquote> <p>Other MSI files work on this machine with the same user account, which is a member of the local Administrators group. The entire Release\ folder has SYSTEM set to Full Control. Both C:\WINDOWS\TEMP and C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp have SYSTEM set to Full Control.</p> <p>The PC is running Windows XP SP2 32-bit, with plenty of RAM and disk space available.</p>
