Good afternoon all,

 

I need to package up the installer for SOQL Studio for deployment in our company.

 

It looks like you're using https://www.advancedinstaller.com/ to package the application for installation, could you please let me know how I can parse the serial number through the command line for a completely silent install?

 

Many thanks!

Joe.

Hi Joe,

I'm not sure what you mean by "parse the serial number".  Since every licensed user has a unique license, I'm not sure how a totally silent install would work.  At a minimum, you'd need to specify the licensing information that is unique to every user at install time.

Okay understood, I can build a script for each user. How do I feed the serial number to the installer through the command line?

Hi Joe,

Advanced Installer creates standard Windows Installer packages.  We use the .exe bootstrap wrapper around the .msi for ours.  Are you looking for the property names to set and pass through the command line relative to the licensing information?  If so, please email Support at support@visualsoftwaresystems.net and they'll provide that information for you.
