Parallels Desktop Auto Deploy package does not work in 10.5.8

[KarthikeyanM]

Hi,

We use Parallels Desktop Auto Deploy package to deploy Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac to the environment. We followed the Parallels Desktop Mass Deployment document to create the package.

Package works fine with Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard but DOES NOT work with Mac OS X 10.5.8 (Leopard).

Installer log shows as below:-


Installation package found: /Volumes/Parallels7.0.15054.722853_20120124/Parallels7.0.15054.722853_20120124.pkg/Parallels/ParallelsDesktop-7.0.15054.722853.dmg

When mounting the Parallels Desktop 7 installer dog manually, it mounts but this log shows "hdiutil: attach failed - no mountable file systems".

Has anyone faced this issue on 10.5 machines or any suggestions?

Thanks & Regards,
Karthikeyan

Parallels Auto Deploy in fact does NOT support 10.5 (not good news)

We opened a support ticket with Parallels enterprise support. They said the Parallels Auto Deploy mass deployment solution (PKG wrapper) does not support 10.5. This is very bad news...hoping to get a call back with a "fix"...

Wow, does anyone monitor this forum? FYI, Vlad (Parallels engineer) and his colleagues fixed the problem. We should be seeing an updated Parallels Auto Deploy wrapper package uploaded soon.
