Re: Silent Install Not Working

Hi Mark,
A few things:
1) What is in SETUP.LOG after the install fails?
2) What does your SETUP.ISS file look like?
3) Does this fail on any machine you try it on, or
just one machine?
4) Which version of Windows are you trying to do the
install on (probably NT 4.0), and what service
pack?
5) Before starting the install, did you shut down all
Windows apps? In particular, it is important that
you stop any ADSM client services that might be
running (i.e. scheduler, client acceptor, remote
client agent).
6) If you copy the client installation files to the
machine's local disk, leaving them in their
original directory structure (ADSMCLI\WIN32\INTEL,
etc.) does the silent install work?

"The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked."
We are trying to get a silent install to work here and everything appears to be
going fine untill near the end of the install, the Backup client icon appears on
the desktop and then it dissapears and the install begins to remove its files
and then quits. Where can i look for error messages?
Here's a copy of the batch file we are running.
===================================================
Setup.Bat
NET USE I: \\Servername\ADSMINST
I:
CD\
XCOPY I:\Weekly C:\ADSM\Weekly /E /C /I /F /H /R
COPY I:\INSDLSVC.BAT C:\ADSM\INSDLSVC.BAT
COPY I:\INSWKSVC.BAT C:\ADSM\INSWKSVC.BAT
COPY I:\SOON.EXE %SYSTEMROOT%
NET START SCHEDULE
SOON 900 C:\ADSM\INSDLSVC.BAT
SOON 930 C:\ADSM\INSWKSVC.BAT
CD \ADSM Client - 3.1.07
cd .\disk1
setup.exe -s
