Can I use parameters to control the settings of the installation?

Hi Sir

I found that Advanced has support for 『File download』 and 『Windows Installer Properties』

I want to package a silently installed MSI and use parameters to control download different file.
Ex..
I use install and use command
:test.msi [IP][file.txt]

When my MSI is installed, It will download form http://[IP]/[file.txt]

Hello,

Yes this is possible by using a command line like this:

Code: Select all

msiexec /i setup.msi IP_PROP="11.0.0.1" FILENAME_PROP="file.txt"
where "IP_PROP" and "FILENAME_PROP" are public properties.

Also, the "URL" field of your file download operation must be set like this:

Code: Select all

http://[IP_PROP]/[FILENAME_PROP]
Have a look on our msiexec command line article too.

All the best,
Daniel

So can I use this method for SCCM delivery?

Hello,

To be fully honest with you, I am not so experienced in what regards SCCM, so I am afraid I can not answer that question.

However, you could try to test it and see if it works. To be honest, I do not see why it would not work.

Best regards,
