Office 2019 standard how do I get O2019 Standard source files?

Question

This is week #2 of me screwing around with the https://config.office.com/deploymentsettings tool.

I'm starting to lose my temper as this should not be this hard to get product we've paid for.

We own 30 licenses for the Office 2019 Standard and the only thing I can get to install is the Office 2019 Enterprise suite that the generic .xml file is part of the Office Deployment tool.

I've downloaded this tool a half dozen times and I've run through the config tool god knows how many times and see no issue with the config.

The admin command line I'm running is: c:\odt\setup.exe /configuration Configuration-OEMStandard64.xml

I get no error, it just dumps me back to the information you get when running setup.exe /help

the .exe and the .xml are in the same folder on the same drive and I have full network permissions and internet access on a fresh 500gb image.

I need these files, I have gear to deploy and I am tired of this mess that I'm put into because we can't use O365 in this application.

Please see the .xml below and don't respond to me and tell me it works for you... that is not helpful.

If you have something to say that points to what I'm doing incorrectly that will gratefully be accepted and acted upon.

<Configuration ID="59c12073-1b3d-4926-bec4-8d650de20aa1">

<Info Description="OEM_Office Standard 2019" />

<Add OfficeClientEdition="64" Channel="PerpetualVL2019">

<Product ID="Standard2019Volume" PIDKEY="I have the MAK code provided in our purchase here">

<ExcludeApp ID="Groove" />

</Product>

<RemoveMSI />

<AppSettings>

<Setup Name="Company" Value="OEM_Office Standard 2019" />

</AppSettings>

</Configuration>

I appreciate any help that get's me through this as I'm at a complete loss.

> The admin command line I'm running is: c:\odt\setup.exe /configuration Configuration-OEMStandard64.xml, I get no error, it just dumps me back to the information you get when running setup.exe /help

Please try this command c:\odt\setup.exe /configure Configuration-OEMStandard64.xml

Or you may use cd C:\odt command to locate to "odt" folder first, then use "configure" to install Office, the second command is setup.exe /configure Configuration-OEMStandard64.xml.

If you want to download the Office installation package, you may use "download" mode, such as setup.exe /download Configuration-OEMStandard64.xml, for more, please refer to "Overview of the Office Deployment Tool"

emilyhua-msft,

Thank you, it appears you caught my frustrated typing error. "/configure" not "/configuration" ~ That said, I'm still broken. I'm getting:

"We found a problem!

We're sorry, we can't continue because we weren't able to download a required file. Please make sure you're connect to the internet or connect to a different network, then try again"

I've tried 3 available networks and the internet is working on all three of these options, still not files installed or downloaded via /download

I appreciate your help!

Brian
