Cisco Jabber for Windows MSI Transformation failing via MS Orca
SYMPTOMS
Trying to use MS Orca to edit the MSI file and add the configuration.Getting Error Message that "This MSI contains at least one embedded substorage which cannot be copied to the new package. You will need to manually import these substorages into the new file."
ENVIRONMENT
Cisco Jabber for Windows using MS Orca to edit the property values
CAUSES
This issue happens due to certain components, that are in the MSI.
Orca is not capable of moving these components when using save as.
RESOLUTION
Please make sure you use the following Properties only when adding new rows:
These properties correspond to the command line arguments and have the same values. See
Command Line Arguments for descriptions of each property and the values you can specify:
I have the same problem as him. I try to use the .mst and it just doesnt work.
Hi Jasmeet
It does not appear that Step 3 and the link in Step 4 apply any longer. I am still getting this issue in the newest version of Jabber.
Thanks

It appears that using the suggested method breaks the digital signature of the .msi.
Any suggestions?
Hi,
I have a similar problem and tried the resolution you mentioned but it still not solving the problem. I also tried using the CiscoJabberProperties.mst but I am getting "
"This MSI contains at least one embedded substorage which cannot be copied to the new package. You will need to manually import these substorages into the new file."
I have Jabber 9.2
Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit OS
Microsoft ORCA
Microsoft Visual Express 2010 SP 1
Please suggest if any one have similar issue and resolved the same.

Hey Guys,
When we are editing the MSI file with MS ORCA, manually adding the values in the property table, make sure that we are only doing "Save" and NOT "Save As".
I just tested again with Jabber 9.2(2) and that works.

Jas
Hi Jas
Thanks for the response. The issue with that method vs. the transform is that it breaks the digital signiture of the .msi.
Before ORCA Edit:
After ORCA edit:
It's my understanding the transforming the MSI vs editing retains the digital signiture.
Thanks

I am running into this same issue trying to modify Jabber for Windows 9.6. Anyone have a fix for this issue?
Does anybody have an update on this (old) problem? Orca transform still seems to be broken in the 10.5 release.
