I faced an issue installing Flash player from USB drive
though it was installing fine when installed from local or network drive. I
found out the issue and resolution and want to document here for all of you.
While installing the package, I got this error in the log
files:
MSI (s) (44:C4) [14:06:35:318]: Source is incorrect. Volume
label should be but is SMSBOOT.
MSI (s) (44:C4) [14:06:46:956]: Source is incorrect. Volume
label should be but is SMSBOOT.
While analysing this, I realized that the disk label for my
USB is SMSBOOT and this could be anything else for you on your USB or DVD.
I had added a file in my MSI through MST and it had created
an entry in the Media table. This entry looked like this and this is the
default entry which you get with the tool.
Behind the scene it was looking for a Blank labelled disk
where this media is located but could not find it and it gave an error “Insert
Disk”.
I removed the label from my USB drive and kept it Blank. It
worked fine.
Just to get this you can do the following in your packages
so that this issue does not come.
Just add DISK1 in the VolumeLabel Column for your added
media as well. This will make it work for any labelled USB or DVD drive.
I hope this will help you to resolve your issues.
