(Resources -> Archive section):
creates: if file/directory exists, will not download/extract archive.
If you've got a creates parameter with the value of ${windir} (which for
you is C:\temp\) then the archive resource won't do anything if C:\temp\
exists. On a Windows machine I believe there's a very good chance that will
always exist, hence why your archive is not doing anything.
The creates flag is there to stop the archive resource from running over
and over again; it specifies a file that will exist AFTER you've downloaded
and extracted your archive. Think of it as a conditional to do work or not
do work.
I've downloaded /te_agent_8.4.2_en_windows_x86_64.zip and looked inside. I
would suggest you try this parameter:
creates => "${windir}/te_agent_8.4.2_en_windows_x86_64/te_agent.msi"
