Deploying Zimbra Connector 8 using GPO

Greetings.
I am looking for assistance deploying Zimbra Outlook Connector 8.0.0.673 using GPO. :confused:
1.) When installing using MSI from GPO it fails with following error.
> Calling the Windows Installer to install application APP from policy ZCL. The install of application APP from policy ZCL failed. The error was : %1605

Error description --->
ERROR_UNKNOWN_PRODUCT 1605 This action is only valid for products that are currently installed.

If you run the same MSI locally using msiexec /i ZimbraConnectorOLK_8.0.0.673_x86.msi /quiet
it installs fine without any errors.

Any idea why would GPO installation fail with 1605?

2.) The MSI comes up as having Arabic Language. I know some people suggested going to MSI with orca and deleting everything except 1033 from Language field - but I did that and it still seems to be coming up as arabic for some strange reason. Any idea how that can be fixed?

Thank you for your help.

I have no issues with GPO except for the arabic glitch. I do use Orca to modify the language field leaving only 1033.

I can't remember the language error but it does sound somewhat familar to what you've posted. Get that fixed first and it may work.

1.) Language thing - when I open MSI with orca and go to Language in Properties there is only one number there 1033.
Is there some other place where I should modify fields leaving only 1033? I would appreciate node in the right direction.

2.) So I didn't have trouble with previous version as well.(despite also thinking it's arabic) In fact that what bothered me most. We didn't actually deploy 7.1.3.6347 with GPO,
so when I started getting all troubles with 8.0.0.673 I decided to check if that will work.
So I created GPO with previous version and tried to deploy it to brand new test machine. It worked just fine. I then put 8.0 into same GPO and put is as Upgrade option for previous package.
What's interesting it still failed with same error again. So it fails with 1605 if it's upgrade and even if it's stand alone deploy on machine with no previous version.

Any help would be appreciated.
Here is deployment logs.
