Running a Silent Installation

Make sure you have the correct version of the modified SilentInstall_Win.txt file in the installer image, then run the SilentInstall_Win.bat script from a command prompt.

  1. For each type of installation you want to automate, perform a trial run of these instructions using your modified SilentInstall_Win.txt configuration files, on a temporary or test server host.
    Confirm that each modified configuration file produces the desired installation outcome, before you proceed with silent installation on an actual target host.
  2. Confirm that the root directory of the installer image contains the correct version of the SilentInstall_Win.txt configuration file that you modified for a particular installation type.
  3. From a command prompt on the installation target host, navigate to the root directory of the installer image and launch the silent installation script:
    SilentInstall_Win
  4. Check the log files for errors.
    • Errors that cause a silent installation to fail before the installation directories are created are logged in <InstallDrive>\UPInstall.log.
    • Errors encountered after the installation destination is created are logged in <UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\InstallLogs\UPInstall.log.
  5. Repeat these steps on different servers for each type of installation you are automating.
