Error 1606. Could not access network location Autodesk\Raster Design 2005\R16.1\

[Anonymous]

We are trying to install Raster Design 2005 true a network deployment but when we try to run it we get the following error message in the log file:

Error 1606. Could not access network location Autodesk\Raster Design 2005\R16.1\enu\Support

I saw that there was an update for a similar problem for AutoCAD 2004 does that also apply to Raster Design?

Do you know what the update for AutoCAD does?

The fix is downloadable from the autodesk site

the gave the following answer

This issue occurs when you attempt to install AutoCAD® 2004 through a group policy object that is assigned to a computer running the Windows® 2000 operating system.

GPO installations are not supported in Autodesk Raster Design 2005. The
issue was fixed for Autodesk Raster Design 2006, but a fix was never
implemented for previous versions. The update posted for AutoCAD will not
work with Raster Design. You should be able to install directly from the
deployment, which for that version of the product is the only way supported.

Thanks,

I'm seeing this same issue with installing AutoCAD 2005 on a XP SP1 computer via GPO. Nearly identical error:
Product: AutoCAD 2005 - English -- Error 1606. Could not access network location Autodesk\AutoCAD 2005\R16.1\enu\.
I know I've installed it successfully using the same GPO in the past. I don't know what, if anything, has changed.
Any ideas out there?

i've run into some 1606 errors that were caused and resolved by populating the default user regsitry. I did so with the script below (save as a vbs file and execute). It resolved SOME 1606 errors... not all.

Based off:
Wait a minute…

http://www.edsa.com/supportDownloads/faq.html
Check FAQ 6.
Check the .DEFAULT user Shell Folder settings?

' COMMENT: Populates 2 registry settings in the default user registry, and checks
' for and creates the application data subfolder or local settings
' in the default user profile if it does not exist.
'==========================================================================

const HKEY_USERS = &H80000003

strComputer = "."

Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &_

'Configure the Default User Local Settings Values
strKeyPath = ".DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders"
strValueName = "Local Settings"
strValue = "C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Local Settings"
oReg.SetStringValue HKEY_USERS,strKeyPath,strValueName,strValue

strValueName = "Local AppData"
strValue = "C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Local Settings\Application Data"
oReg.SetStringValue HKEY_USERS,strKeyPath,strValueName,strValue

'Create the App Data sub-folder if it does not exist in the default user\local settings folder
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

If NOT objFSO.FolderExists("c:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings\Application Data") Then
Set objFolder = objFSO.CreateFolder("c:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings\Application Data")
End If

Don't know if you've fixed this yet but I got the same error when installing 2005 on an XPSP1 machine but fixing it was just a matter of fixing a filename. When moving files about from server to server, Windows can sometimes truncate filenames if their path gets too long and this will cause a 1606 error if you install using /qn. Try running the same install with /qb to see if it asks you to find any missing files.

Failing that you could simply do a search of your media for ~ to see if any files have been renamed. The only file that was stopping my install working was: "Program Files\AutoCAD 2005\UserDataCache\Template\Generic 24in x 32in Title Block -Color Dependent Plot Styles.dwt" which I think is the longest path in the media so look there first 🙂

Hope that helps someone...
