ReplyDeleteWorked until computer was restarted -back to fault but CD Cache value remained at 0
ReplyDeleteIf you receive an error message after performing the above regedit procedure then download these files YT561401.CAB & ZS561401.CAB from :

ReplyDeleteWow seems like this is a universal problem !!
I have the missing CAB.11 thingy too !
I am not very computer literate but I followed the instructions to change the key to 0 .. but now I get the error .. 1311: Source file not found: C:\MSOCache\All Users\90000409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9\W2561405.CAB.

Thanx Mike, it was a big help!!!
ReplyDeletemany thx...Mike...nice work...
ReplyDeleteit worked...thanks mike...
ReplyDeleteThere seems to be alot or thanks and praise going on here......a bit suspicious?
ReplyDeleteWhat about the "Error 1311" !!!!
that worked for me! thanks! =)
ReplyDeletehi
ReplyDeletei have the problem of missing sku011.cab!
i am following the instruction ,but i am not sure whether i can get through it!
regedit -> [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE] -> [SOFTWARE] ->???
ReplyDeleteWhere to find this files,simply can't find how to get thrue...
Helllpppppp
Start-->Run-->type regedit and press enter
ReplyDeleteon the left pane list select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-->Software-->MicroSoft-->Office-->11.0-->Delivery .
There under delivery select your DownloadCode (32bit numeric value will be visible) on right pane , right click on CDCache. Change the Value to 0.
hope this Clear to you Soprano.
well, I have tried the cache to '0' thing which let me get a stage further but am now also stuck at the error: 1311, the file I am missing is named:Source file not found: C:\MSOCache\...............\ L4561403.cab
ReplyDeleteI have also tried the prottplv.doc, copy and rename as prottpln.doc but again the same error message, can anyone get past this stage?
thank you!
I had the same problem trying to upgrade to Office 2007.
ReplyDeleteI ejected the 2007 DVD and inserted my Office 2003 CD where the SKU011.CAB file is, then clicked on RETRY.
It didn't pop-up with another error after that and the progress bar wasn't moving any further, so I ejected and inserted my Office 2007 disk again and the installation carried on as normal.
If that doesn't work for you, have a look at the official Microsoft Knowledge Base posting:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/818234/en-us
Their official recommendation is uninstalling 2003 first before upgrading.
Hello, thank you very much. Problem solved!

ReplyDeleteFor those people who have done the regedit fix for MSCache 2 to 0 and are getting the 1311 error, I had the same thing and it was resolved (on my laptop at least) by downloading SP3 for Office 2003.
ReplyDeleteThanks a ton Mr. Ahmed Khan...
ReplyDeleteI faced a problem in M-Office. one error occurred about SKU011.CAB
I went thru the steps what you mentioned above and i changed the CDCache Value to 0 after the M-Office start working properly...
You saved my head...
Thanks a tom
Regards
hey thx a ton it works....:-)
ReplyDeleteI followed these steps and the SKU011.CAB problem didn't go away. I reread the instructions and it said only ONE folder should be there - and so I deleted the other one... even though the folder name was slightly different, the settings were the same. Then I got the 1311 error - but SP3 for Office 2003 fixed it!
ReplyDeleteThanks ray1!!!

I had the same problem after making the Regedit change to "0". New error message
ReplyDelete"Error 1331. Source file not found. C:\MSOCache\AllUsers\90000409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9\MT561403.CAB.
Verify that the file exists and that you can still access it."
On my computer the only file missing was
"MT"561403.CAB.
Seems can be one of several files missing . You need to ascertain which one is needed.
Then I followed Sids link from post #89 downloaded a new file & it worked !!!

ReplyDeleteCan someone explain to me in layman terms what the solution entails?
ReplyDeleteregedit -> [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE] -> [SOFTWARE] -> [Microsoft] -> [Office] -> [11.0] -> [Delivery] -> {90000409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9} -> [CDCache] change to [0] …. Done!
I have no idea what that means. Do I search for the folder named 'regedit' in my HD and then look for those subsequent folders? Or do I click 'run' and enter that copy and paste the whole sequence above like a command?
thanks ken, your formula worked. i went into run from start and typed regedit and then followed your instructions.
ReplyDeleteworked like magic, thanks a ton.
this error had been a headache for me for the last week
Thanks Sid (comment 89).

Goto START > RUN and type "Regedit", press ok.
Use the left hand side folder navigation (like you were looking for a file) to go to the location as listed above.
When you get there, In the right hand window you will see some options. One of them will be "CDCache". Double click on it and that will open up an edit box. Change the value to 0 and then press ok. - done!

ReplyDeleteThis Kenyan Boy!!!!!
Im strying to install office 93 on my dell laptop after i did a clean install of vista. it has worked before, but not now.
ReplyDeleteI tried the cdcache '0'. No luck... (a few times)
Can someone please HELP ME!!!!! :(
oops sorry... mean't to write 03.
ReplyDelete;s
Hello -
ReplyDeleteLove you all
I did Both the below and it cleared without problem - don't know which one did it but who cares?!!!
I went into the C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE11\1033 directory and There was a file
there named PROTTPLV.DOC. I copied it to my desktop and named the copy
PROTTPLN.DOC and that resolved my problem.
I ALSO
Start–>Run–>type regedit and press enter
on the left pane list select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE–>Software–>MicroSoft–>Office–>11.0–>Delivery .
There under delivery select your DownloadCode (32bit numeric value will be visible) on right pane , right click on CDCache. Change the Value to 0.
Wow, Thanks a lot..
ReplyDeleteThe problem solved.
The regedit fix didn't work for me. BUT HERE IS WHAT DID:
ReplyDeleteSearch on Google for the files your error message is saying you are missing (ZS561401.CAB &
YT561401.CAB can be found at Badongo.com; e2561410.cab can be found at esnips.com) and download them to your desktop.
http://www.badongo.com/file/8313579
http://www.badongo.com/file/8313603
http://www.esnips.com/doc/cf4b5af4-6eda-461b-a1e2-c56c52c6c9dc/E2561410
Now, go to your C drive, and if you can't see a folder named "MSOcache" you need to go to the TOOLS dropdown menu, then select FOLDER OPTIONS. Then select the VIEW tab. Under "Hidden Files and Folders," select the circle next to "Show hidden files and folders."
Now should see the MSOcache folder. Now select, cut, and paste the files you downloaded into this folder. That was it for me! Finally, after weeks of trying Open Office workarounds, and countless annoying error messages, it's fixed! YEAH!!!
lots of thanks.... it works
ReplyDeleteHi,

ReplyDeleteHi Can anyone help
ReplyDeleteI am trying to install Office 2003 on a vista laptop that was using 2007. Word 2007 is still installed. The problem is that the install freezes at SKU011.CAB, with only Cancel as an option to rollback out of install.
I tried the fix in Regedit, but it doesn't have the full path from 11.0 to delivery etc. Is there a different directory structure and if so, which little file should I be changing to 0. Please help, I am wasting my life on this.
Wow, thanks for the tip
ReplyDeleteTHX man.. I Repaired my registry wit CCleaner and I'm starting to get this msg..

ReplyDeleteThat is untill I checked out Sid's solution. Didn't fancy download files from "Knights-Templar" but thought "what the hell" and went ahead.
Hey Presto, works a charm!

ReplyDeletethanx.. (,'')
ReplyDeleteChris
ReplyDeleteThanks mate. It is done now.
My Dad had this problem... I tried everything I had seen on the internet, nothing worked. I finally found a log on the system which pointed me to the actual problem. The office source engine service was not running. To fix:
ReplyDelete1. Right Click on MyComputer, select manage
2. Go to Services and Applications
3. Find the service "Office Source Engine"
4. Start the service
I also noticed that the service was set to manual... not sure if it should be or not, but I changed it to automatic.
Good Luck everyone!
If an earlier version of Office is currently installed and the option to keep the earlier Office version is selected, the earlier version of Microsoft Office Outlook is removed, and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 is installed unexpectedly.
ReplyDeleteClick Start, click Control Panel, and then click Add or Remove Programs.
Click to select the earlier version of Office in the Currently installed programs list, and then click Change.
Click Add or Remove Features, and then click Next.
Click to select the Outlook check box, and then click Update.
Thank`s
ReplyDeleteIt`s works!!!

ReplyDeleteHey!! mine works. Thanks Nicks and Michelle, What I've done was:
ReplyDelete1. Do the registry thing----> Failed
2. Do the copy thing-----> Failed
3. Eject the 2007 disc and inserted the 2003-----> Failed
4. Try to download the above links------> Failed
5. Try to do like Michelle said but mine was already started and my choice was to stop it. So, I stopped it and the pop up didn't come out anymore.
Then, I inserted the disc back in and the installation process continued !!!!!!!!! , Thanks you people.
Mainly because a Newbie I am continually seeking online for this kind of stuff .Thank you:P
ReplyDeleteRecently purchased a set of Microsoft Office 2003 Standard Edition. Placed the download disk in computer. Download started okay an error statement showed LZ561403-CAB IS MISSING. The download reversed its input os 2003 SE. Where can I find this missing file and how do I go about entering same. I am not real computer literate.
ReplyDeletethank u so much,....helped alot......
ReplyDeleteThe Windows Event Viewer (Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Event Viewer) is the best tool to start with. In my case, I found a warning event with this description: "The resource 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\XLSTART\' does not exist."
ReplyDeleteSo, I created a new folder called XLSTART under OFFICE11 folder, and voila... problem solved!
Thank you for your solution ^_^
ReplyDeletereally very very thanks 2 u for help me solve the error
ReplyDeleteWhen I could not open Excell of MS Professional Edition 2003, due to SKU011.CAB file missing I followed the advice posted by going into -Run- Regedit -> [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE] -> [SOFTWARE] -> [Microsoft] -> [Office] -> [11.0] -> [Delivery] -> {90000409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9} -> [CDCache] change to [0]
ReplyDeleteand I got Excell Back. I have no idea why the file was missing and how changing the value from 2 to 0 works, but, hey, thank you all of you for taking time and posting such helpful tips. Hopefully, that will even help more people. The power of internet communities! Well done!
This link doesn't work any more:

Thanks
the PROTT thing works - (see Rainbow's comment) - yeeha
ReplyDeleteit works, tq :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so so so much
ReplyDeleteit worked with me
it was very helpful
Thank's so much this type of good people!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete,'. I am very thankful to this topic because it really gives up to date information -";
ReplyDeleteI had to do BOTH of the fixes above.
ReplyDeleteFirst I did the Run Reg Edit fix and changed CDCache to "0" which is described above. Then when I tried to open Word I got the new error message which included my 32 digit office download ID (i.e. 90000409- etc) and then the next file that was missing.
Second, following the instructions on the previous post above from Chris on March 14, 2008, I googled esnips and that file name. Don't use the file names that Chris lists in his post, you have to use the file name from your second error message. Mine was IJ561401.CAB. I downloaded that file and saved it in C:, MSOCACHE (sometime a hidden folder so make sure you have options set to view hidden folders), All Users, the 32 digit office download ID (i.e. 90000409- etc).
It finally worked, after 6 months!!!
thanks... it works
ReplyDeleteThanx Mate, Did the trick for me. Thnxa bunch.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Mike. Changing the value from 2 to 0 worked like a charm. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteAnother happy customer.
