Re: Problem to repair in silent mode

Hello Sangam,

If your EXE prerequisites packages contain embedded MSI files, then you should use a repair command line like this:

Code: Select all

/fa //
in order to achieve what you want. So, can you use the above command line and see if the behavior still persist? If so, please give us more details about your scenario.

All the best,
Daniel

Re: Problem to repair in silent mode

Hi,
I have created one wrapper having two msi.
I want to install these msi in silent mode for that i used /qn command and it works fine.
But when i delete some files from installed folder and reinstall wrapper then as per my
requirement it have to repair(reinstall deleted files) these two installed applications
but it doesn't work.For repair i used /fa Command.

Hello Sangam,

Can you please use a repair command line like this:

Code: Select all

/fa {ProductCode}
and see if the behavior still persist?

Please keep in mind that {ProductCode} is the product code of the related prerequisite package.

All the best,
