alcarr Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) I'm trying to automate an installation using Autoit, however i'm stuck on a windows within the installation. The window have two buttons: Install and close, after i click install the installation will start and disables the two buttons but when is done the Close button is active again in the same windows but my code is not able to click the button. WinWaitActive ("Window", "Please select to install") Send ("!i") WinWait ("Window", "") ControlClick("Window", "", "[CLASS:Button; TEXT:Close; INSTANCE:2") Please help!!!

somdcomputerguy Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) It may work with this function - ControlCommand. Try it like this (not tested).WinWaitActive ("Window", "Please select to install") Send ("!i") Sleep(100) Do Sleep(100) Until ControlCommand("Window", "", "[CLASS:Button; TEXT:Close; INSTANCE:2", "IsEnabled") ControlClick("Window", "", "[CLASS:Button; TEXT:Close; INSTANCE:2") Edited March 22, 2012 by somdcomputerguy - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

timi1014 Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 what Software you want to install? if it is freeware maybe i can have a closer look on it.
Chimaera Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 The software you are trying to install may already have silent switches to automate it.

somdcomputerguy Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 I don't know what I was thinking.. I've edited my code above, again. It might actually work this time. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
alcarr Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 Here is the code that i used to fix the issue, might help someone like me one day. opt ("WinWaitDelay", 100) Do sleep (50) Until ControlCommand("Window", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]", "IsEnabled", "") Do Local $Success = ControlClick("Window", "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2]") sleep (50) Until $Success = 1

timi1014 Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 Try this Run(@ComSpec & " /c ServerFile.msi -switch") Switch can be -qb -silent -verysilent depends on msi.
Moderators JLogan3o13 Posted March 23, 2012 Moderators Posted March 23, 2012 If the application you are running is an MSI, this should work for you.

alcarr Posted March 23, 2012 Author Posted March 23, 2012 @ Mass Spammer. Thank you for your code, that fixed my issue.
alcarr Posted April 5, 2012 Author Posted April 5, 2012 so now i have created the installation package, however when i tried to rolled it out to the clients using group policy, some workstation already have it installed and the installation will stop. not sure how to terminate the installation automatically, any suggestions?
Chimaera Posted April 6, 2012 Posted April 6, 2012 Maybe look for the .exe on a If Filexists basis like this eg If FileExists( "path to exe") Then MsgBox(0, "Update error", "Update has already been installed") Else ;install your stuff here EndIf If Ive just helped you ... miracles do happen.

alcarr Posted July 18, 2012 Author Posted July 18, 2012 back to the drawing board i hope someone can help me with this issue. I'm trying to automate and installation which i already did all the code for it, however during the installation i get warning pop ups about dll conflict and i have to ignore them but they are not consistent some workstation will only popped once and some other ones will popped 10 time, same box so the automate installation will sit there. is there any way to tell the install to continue?
