[ConfigMg 2007] Task Sequence hangs when installing a Program

My Task Sequence keeps hanging when trying to install a specific software Package.  It runs the “Install Software” task but hangs when it’s installing a Package.  I’ve tried rebuilding the machine but it keeps hanging at the same place. 

ANSWER

Open the execmgr.log and do a search for the name of the problem Program.  You’ll probably see a line similar to the following:

Program <program_name> waiting for user logon

To fix this:

  1. Open the Package in the ConfigMgr Console.
  2. Right-click the Program and select “Properties”.
  3. Click on the “Environment” tab.
  4. Verify that the “Program can run:” dropdown is set to “Whether or not a user is logged on” and not “Only when a user is logged on” as it was in this case.
  5. Rebuild the machine.
