Locked Installing LTSC office offline with config.xml

[illusions]

Hi, I am using windows 11 and mount office 2021 LSTC.iso to virtual drive I:

ODT on desktop
setup.exe
configuration.xml

I double click my install.cmd on desktop which has this command
setup /configure configuration.xml

Got this error message:
We can't install
This product can't be installed on selected update channel.


How can I fix this. Thanks in advance.



Here is my configuration.xml

You have to use setup.exe /configure yourxmlfile.xml
....but you must first build the MSP file using the Office Customization Toolkit (OCT) to deploy the OS

It details the very way you are trying to install Office. I've used this method to install Office 2021 in a few of my builds and works every time.

@illusions. read carefully the thread recommended by @Dark Wolf
I have never installed Office that way, from what I see the Channel is well configured, I have seen the command written as "setup" and as "setup.exe", perhaps the problem is in the installation path, generally you must have elevated permissions.
Try to install it on the desktop as a test and if it works, it is that virtual device that is causing the error.
