Re: msi with files next to it (for GPO)

Thanks for your response again. Today the installer seemed to make it through when I assigned it again and I did see that just having the outside resources of that msi build in the same distribution point were actually copied to the machine. The one thing that did strike me as odd though and ultimat...

Re: msi with files next to it (for GPO)

I would like to add, that I am a very experienced GPO person, not necessarily with software installs since we use SCCM mostly. I fully understand how pointing to the MSI would run that msi, what I do not know is what I do with the "files next to it" to get them to the computer that will be...

Re: msi with files next to it (for GPO)

Thanks Dan, but if you think I haven't read that page from beginning to end to try and see if it even mentions how to use "msi with files next to it" which seems to only be a feature of Advanced installer and no other product in existence. If you can point me to an area that tells me how t...

msi with files next to it (for GPO)

I am trying to build an msi that I thought would have been easy, I need to roll back a few dll's and register them. I want to distribute this through GPO which requires an msi, when I select the option for Active Directory (GPO) deployment it automatically selects the "msi with files next to it...

Re: Install Commman Line Options - working with repsonse fil

I would like to also add, that since I used the "Addtional Files" button on the Prerequisite Setup Tab and added my setup.iss responsefile, it was placed in the same working directory as this silent installer. I only ended up needing to make the -s command in Hidden (NoUI) command and then...

Re: Install Commman Line Options - working with repsonse fil

Okay so I have found a resolution to my problem. Once I changed the bootstrapper to be silent (no ui), then my commands to run the prerequisites in silent mode also worked. Simple solution to a simple problem, a simple problem that took about 15 hours to get through. Hope this thread helps someone e...

Re: Install Commman Line Options - working with repsonse fil

Just to clarify, it is not the main exe that I am building that I am looking to run in silent mode, it is the embedded .exe's that I have setup for post install prerequisites that I am trying to get to respond to silent install with response file.

Re: Install Commman Line Options - working with repsonse fil

Well nothing fails, it just will not run in silent mode and use the answer file, instead it comes up with Full UI looking for user input. I can not seem to get the Silent (NoUI) to respond to this command: -s -f1c:\windows\temp\bpc1\setup.iss Though it woirks outside of Advanced installer with the r...

Install Commman Line Options - working with repsonse files

I have been trying to get a msi built that requires a .exe within it to be run silently with a response file that specifies launguage and license agrement. But unfortunately I can not get this silent process with repsonse file to cooperate. If I run a command line for the silent repsonse file manual...

How to repackage on remote computer

We have been using Scalable WinINstall for a while now, one of the features I liked the most was the repackager which we need from time to time. We purchased this product becuase it simply seemed like the best on the markety and it also included a repackager. Well, I have a urgent need to use the re...
