hey guys, i just got Warhammer 40.000: Dawn of war, and i was pretty excited to play it, but it get this weird error at the beggining of the installation, im gonna try to translate it from spanish :P is says something like this
"Error: -1639 The argument of the command line is invalid, check the SDK windows installer documentation to get detailed help about commands"
anyways, what is this all about? i checked on google and i came with this possible solution, but i have no idea what to do
Greetings!
The problem was a wayward environment variable.
Yes, SYSTEM and installer user have the correct permissions.
Turns out that the problem was a wayward environment variable.
HOMEPATH was set to "Documents and Settings"\"..login.."\"My Documents"
This was shown in the log file (by manual execution of msiexec with log
flags) to come out as
%HOMEPATH=
Correction of HOMEPATH to C:\...full path fixed the problem

so, i hope someone can give me an advice or a solution for this weird problem, thank's in advance!!!!
