I’m aware of the pre-reqs and have fully packaged and automated their installs (which installs successfully). However when it comes to installing the actual CRM 2013 Outlook client itself, installation fails with the following error:
12:11:16| Info| Failed to find the Visual C++ runtime installation file VCRedist9SP1\vcredist_x86.exe.
Given it's x64 Office and x64 Windows 7 I don't know why it is looking for x86 MS Visual C++ Redistributable. Also I have manually successfully installed the Outlook client. It fails however when automating the install when it comes to trying to find the above file. I've also manually installed this and still it says It cannot find it. Below is most of the setup log files.
After some searching I heard there should be a Redist folder with pre-reqs included so I've added similar to what is on the media CD JUST the VCRedist folders within the Redist folder. Still failed.
Please can someone help me with this as i'm really stuck. I'm trying to install this via SCCM 2012 btw.
