Help with Deploying msi.

[SylvainSimpson 0]

Hi, 

I am trying to do a silent install via MSI. Here is my command line 

msiexec.exe /i "%~dp0package.msi" /qn. The issue is that it has a pop up window to confirm folder location. 

I wanted to try the ControlClick option but can't get it to work.  The control box info is as follows;

Basic Window Info

Title = Rechercher un dossier

Class = #32770

Basic Control Info

Class = Button

Instance = 1

Classname NN

AdvancedMode = [CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]

ID = 1

Text = OK

Thanks for any help, 

Sylvain

What are you trying for the ControlClick? Something like this perhaps?:

ControlClick("Rechercher un dossier", "", "Button1")

Although I find it odd that anything is popping up on an MSI with the /qn switch. What is the software?

You might be able to use a MST transform file to help automate it. You could contact the software developer to see if that is supported and how to configure it. Some information on MST transforms:

An MST is a wrapper based on the MSI standard; the developer has nothing to do with it.

It appears the developer hasn't created the MSI using MSI standards.  You could use something like http://www.instedit.com/ to edit or view the Property table of the MSI.

For example you may find a property named "Confirmation" = "Yes", you can then use that property within the command line:

msiexec.exe /i "%~dp0package.msi" Confirmation="No" /qn

nb: Confirmation is just an example of a custom property
