Try calling the scripts with a command to interact with the desktop. 
Wpkg when run as a service it cannot interact with the desktop. 
psexec.exe provides a -i option to interact with the remote desktop 
(www.sysinternals.com <http://www.sysinternals.com>), this may solve the 
problem.

Ironically if you run wpkg as a services under Local System with 
'interact with desktop' checked the it does just that, only problem is 
now you dont have credentials too access the network. Often face a 
similar problem with command line only programs the dont have a silent 
option, however you can get around this by piping the output to null 
(ie: command.exe "install stuff"* >null)*
