MSI installer does not run my CMD file via GPO

[iSteffen]

Hello Forum,

I have built a CMD file that I run briefly as a temp file during installation. When I install my MSI package via GUI the call works.

But when I roll it out via GPO it does not. I think this is because the desktop is not completely loaded at startup. Is there anything I can do to adjust this? That he waits for the finished booted system?

Thanks already!

Hello iSteffen,

Unfortunately, I can not say for sure why this is happening.

If it is indeed what you mentioned, then perhaps you can add some delay in your BAT file?

For instance, you could use the timeout command.

Best regards,

Here is the solution for all:

I solved it via a "Custom Actions" -> "PowerShellScriptInline".

Here is my PowerShell code:
$root = 'URL'
$user = "USERNAME"
$pass= "PASSWORD"
$secpasswd = ConvertTo-SecureString $pass -AsPlainText -Force
$credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential($user, $secpasswd)

$result = Invoke-RestMethod $root -Credential $credential
