In short, Casper’s logs were right the installation process was starting but couldn’t then find a package.Īt that point, I started thinking. Meanwhile, /var/log/install.log on my test Mac only showed that installd was starting and then stopping. Deleted the package and this time uploaded the installer to my Casper server without changing the name from Lync Installer.pkg.ĭownloading BOM for Lync Installer.pkg.įailed again. Assuming it is a flat file package.Įrror: The package could not be found on the server. This Apple Package did not have a valid index.bom file.
After renaming it, I set up an installation policy for Self Service, scoped the policy so that only my test machine could see it, then ran the installation.ĭownloading BOM for Lync 14.0.8 Installer.pkg. To test installing it, I downloaded the installer on a disk image from Microsoft’s site, then renamed the package from Lync Installer.pkg to Lync 14.0.8 Installer.pkg. Since we have several folks using both Lync and Mavericks, I wanted to get this into our Casper server’s Self Service as soon as possible. Microsoft has released Microsoft Lync 14.0.8, which included compatibility with Mavericks.
