I have successfully ran this exact command from command prompt. However, when running it as a command from HPDM, it will show success, but will not install the application. I have looked at this thing from every direction but cannot see what I could possibly be doing wrong. Here is the command as shown in command prompt and in the command task in HPDM:
msiexec.exe /i c:\installationfile.msi /quiet /norestart mode=kiosk subdomain=domain allusers=1 /l* %temp%\installlog.log
This command is ran with Execute After Reboot = No and Wait = No
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Manu,
I was actually getting ready to post the solution. After days and days of trying many different things, I finally realized that the MSI launcher does not like being ran from the default "system" role. I simply changed the task to use the local admin account, and it worked!. Thank you again for your attention. I'm psyched that I was able to figure out on my own though!

Your command looks okay. Normally its recommended to move the Temp & TMP from Z:\ to C:\ before installing any apps that are bigger than 150-200mb size. May I know which app are you trying to install ?
What are the sequence of task on the template ? Are you deploying the file on the same template?

Thanks for your response! The MSI command is separate and is installing workspot virtual desktop. The MSI file is already located on the root directory. The app is not large enough for any concern with the temp file. I'm wondering if it has to do with permissions.

Could you please try the below command from the HPDM Template.
"msiexec.exe" /q /norestart /i c:\filename.msi /L*V %temp%\installlog.log
I have not seen the "mode=kiosk subdomain=domain allusers=1" used when trying to install anything on Thin client. This is because thin client image already has 2 user's setup on it. Also check if there is any into on the logs that are generated.
If you are able to install the file directly on the Thin client it should work similarly when deployed through HPDM. I am sure you have the HP Write manager turned off and unit being rebooted already.
