Hi guys,

I'm trying to make puppet install packages on windows.

It will install exe files just fine - but msi files won't be installed. 
They fail consistently :(

I've tried both having the files on a central directory - and give an UNC 
path to it, and with a file resource, putting the file in c:\temp\ - they 
both give the same result upon install:

                        package { "sflow":
                                source => $architecture ? {
                                        'x86' => 
'C:\\temp\\hsflowd-win-1.22.2-x86.msi',
                                        'x64' => 
'\\\\software01\\autorepo$\\hsflowd-win-1.22.2-x64.msi',
                                        default => 'unsupported 
architecture'
                                },
                                name => $architecture ? {
                                        'x86' => 'sflow',
                                        'x64' => 'sflow',
                                }
                        }

If I use urls like:
'c:\\temp\\hsflowd-win-1.22.2-x86.msi' - I get Failed to install: The 
network name cannot be found - after puppet runs: 
msiexec.exe /qn /norestart /i c:\\temp\hsflowd-win-1.22.2-x86.msi

If I use urls like:
'c\:\\temp\\hsflowd-win-1.22.2-x86.msi'

it fails with: Failed to install: Fail on INT 24

Using Puppet-3.1.1 client on Windows Server 2003.

How do you guys install msi's on windows? :(
