BEA 8.1 Silent Install

The Silent install fails for unix (haven't tried windows) Here are excerpts from the log file. Strange thing is, it says the install completed successfully.

This is the script I used. Stock standard.
"c:\CiscoSoftPhones\CiscoClick2Call8_1_2674\Media\vcredist_x86.exe" /q
msiexec /i "c:\CiscoSoftPhones\CiscoClick2Call8_1_2674\Media\ClickToCallK9.msi" /qn /norestart
MS .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 was already part of the Windows build so did not have to install it.
All I read I could not find anything to set Registry via the install so the configuration was via GPO.
If the standard Users have local admin type level of permissions you could create a Registry hack and add that to the install script but it work need to be run when the User is logged on as from memory the entries are stored under the USER key in the Registry

Silent install of BEA Workshop Studio 10.1?

HELP!
How do I script a silent install of BEA Workshop Studio 10.1? The instructions for BEA Workshop Studio 3.3 don't work. I've figured out that I need a silent.xml, but what options should I put in there? Is there any documentation?
Thanks very much for any assistance!
yours,
Simon Rakov

http://edocs/wlw/docs101/guide/ideuserguide/conSilentInstall.html
The above link provides properties specific to Studio installation.
NOTE: If you are a licensed customer (i.e. if you are using properties WLWIDE_ORDER_ID & WLWIDE_SERIAL_NO) then in addition you need the following workaround:
After Silent installation, edit Studio10.1\workshop_10.1\workshopStudio\eclipse\plugins\com.bea.workshop.product.wstudio_1.0.1 - ins.properties and modify "trial=false" - Save
- Now, when you launch the Studio the license activation takes place in the background (you need to restart the workshop)

Silent install of Oracle WebLogic Server 11gR1 (10.3.6) + Coherence + OEPE

Hi, I'm trying to deploy the Oracle WebLogic Server 11R1 (10.3.6) on multiple computers. So I created a silent.xml file to use in my silent installation. The xml file appears to have the correct syntax. But when I launch the command: oepe-wls-indigo-installer-11.1.1.8.0.201110211138-10.3.6-win32.exe -mode=silent -silent_xml="C:\Temp\silent.xml" -log="C:\Temp\silent-install.log", it crash with these 2 errors.

I need to deploy it to Windows 7 Ent SP1 x64 computers. So I sure like to know what I'm doing wrong?!
Note: I didn't use the value COMPONENT_PATHS because I want to install everything.
Thanks in advance for the help!

I solved the problem myself. I think I was missing my caffeine ;-) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="*UFF-8*"?>

Silent install fails?

Hi Folks,
Restarting an Adobe AIR Application is not working during Silent installation.
If I install testapp.air(which has following code) on a machine that already has Adobe AIR installed on it and I click on
   the 'Restart' button in the testapp it works fine. (The app is closed and restarted and the window reopens)
import mx.core.Application;
import mx.core.WindowedApplication;
import adobe.utils.ProductManager;
public function reStart():void
    var app:WindowedApplication =
        WindowedApplication(Application.application);
    var mgr:ProductManager =
        new ProductManager("airappinstaller");
    mgr.launch("-launch " +
        app.nativeApplication.applicationID + " " +
        app.nativeApplication.publisherID);
    NativeApplication.nativeApplication.exit(0);
Now, we have a need to bundle Adobe AIR with our app and install Adobe AIR in 'silent' mode. I followed the directions in the Adobe
AIR bundling agreement and used the following command to install it:
testappInstaller.exe -silent -eulaAccepted -location "C:/Program Files/" -desktopShortcut testapp.air
If I do this, when I click on the 'Restart' button it does NOT restart the application. The issue seems to be related to installing
Adobe AIR in silent mode.
I would greatly appreciate any assistance Adobe is able to provide for this issue.

Update- BEA recognizes this as an issue in SP2. Maybe fixed in SP3? They sent me
a copy of installoptions.bea. This file must be placed into C:\bea prior to running
install - hard coded path.
I attached installoptions.bea

Silent install Weblogic 12.1.1 - Unable to locate product "WebLogic Server

As there is no bin directory under sparcv9 (which contains the 64-Bit modules), i took sparcv9 again for the path (instead of taking $JAVA_HOME/bin as described in documentation) . But I also tried the bin directory (without sparcv9) with the same effect.
Has anybody an idea for me??

Need help with silent install of Peoplesoft Internet Architecture

I have PT8.49.15 and need to do a silent installation of the web tier on linux. I am supposed to run the $PS_HOME/setup/PsMpPIAInstall/setup.linux which is a Microfocus Installshiled wizard. Any ideas how I can make this a silent installation? I need to automate all of my deployments and have not figured out how to create or pass in a response file to use as input. Is this possible?

No Shortcuts created when doing a silent install using VbS

Hello Everyone !
I have a vb script to do a silent install of BEA Weblogic 8.1SP2. When I push the script and files related to it on a testmachine and execute the script through Zenworks, it installs fine but does not create shortcuts in the Start Menu.
But when I manully run the script on that test machine, it installs fine and creates shortcuts in the Start menu as well. Is there anything from the Zenworks side, that stops the creation of Shortcuts ?
The script is pretty straight forward, so I don't think there's anything wrong with the script. Any suggestion, guys ?
Thanks

Are the ShortCuts Created in the User's or Machines's StartMenu?
I suspect you are running in the "System Space" and not the user space.
You may want to use the "Distribution" Tab to destribute files and
shortcuts.

Weblogic 6.0 Silent Install CHOSEN_INSTALL_SET Options?

I am looking for the valid options for the CHOSEN_INSTALL_SET option within
the Weblogic 6.0 silent installation.
According to page 2-4 of the Installation Guide - the SERVER value is used
to install both the program files and the samples.
What value(s) should be used to install the program files only?
Note: By trying to relate the GUI choices to the silent install, it looks
like the option should be some derivative of CUSTOM SET, CUSTOM_SET,
CUSTOMSET, CUSTOM-SET, etc. buth then there seems to be a need to include a
parameter to specify what the custom choices are.
Thanks,

Unfortunately, that is not yet supported. We plan to add that feature in

Auto / Silent install of Essbase 6.1.4.0 (Client)

Does anyone know/have the switch(es) for an auto or silent install (client side) for Excel Essbase Add-in version 6.1.4.0?Thank you,Blake

Hi,Install Shield has a silent option that allows to record the options that have to be selected by the user.You first have to launch the install with a record a setup.iss file by launcinh setup.exe /r (or -r)Then setup.exe /f1 with the location and name of the iss file will do the trick.Consult installshield.com knowldege base for more information (perform a search on setup.iss).Please be aware that depending on the OS the iss file may need to be different.EricPartake Consulting

setup.exe ADDLOCAL=ALL EXCLUDEDOTNETFILES=1 EXCLUDEJAVAFILES=1 EXCLUDERDCFILES=1 CLIENTLANGUAGE=EN REBOOT=ReallySuppress PIDKEY=(actualKey) INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Crystal Reports 11.5" /live c:\temp\cr_11.log /qn
The installation runs but fails at the end of the installation when attempting to put the shortcuts in the users or All users Start Menu with the error of MainEngineThread is returning 1603 (when under user ID) or MainEngineThread is returning 1604 (when under All Users). The installation is being run with an administrator access login ID, so access to either area should not be a problem.
The installation is on both Windows 2000 and XP pc's and the win32 directory of the msi installation files have been copied locally to the machine as part of the process to eliminate network lag.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get past this?

Check the readme and help files on how to.

How to handle "/9.2.0/root.sh as root from another window" in silent instal

Hi,
I was successful to start a silent installation of Oracle9iR2 using a responsefile on my System RHEL 3. But the installation ends soon and a wrong successful install message:
Error :*** Alert: A configuration script needs to be run as root before installation can proceed. Please leave this window up, go run /opt/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/root.sh as root from another window, then come back here and click OK to continue. ***
The installation of Oracle9i Database was successful.
I use -ignorePatchConflicts for ignoring the patch conflicts. But How do I handle these issues. Where I have to run root.sh ... etc in teh Non Interactive Install.
I am scripting solution for non interactive install and manual intervention to run these root.sh shell scripts at different points of install is not a good idea as it wont help me automate the install.
Please let me know if anyone has solved this problem with -silent install.
Thanks in advance.
Senthil

Thats me (OP) again:
I tried setting:
SHOW_ROOTSH_CONFIRMATION=false in the response file. But still no help. The installation exits at run root.sh prompt point. How I can effectively deal with it in a script?

Open File - Security Warning with Network-based Silent Install of CS4

I am attempting to run an enterprise deployment of CS4 Design Standard Edition onto a pool of WinXP Pro workstations. I placed all of the install files on a networked server running Windows 2003, and generated from there all of the requisite .xml files (install, uninstall, and override files). From this network share, I can successfully run a silent install.
HOWEVER. Multiple times (two or three) during the course of the silent install, I receive the same pop-up security warning from Windows XP (definitely an OS message, not anti-virus or other) that reads as follows:
Open File - Security Warning
Do you want to run this file?
Name: AIRApplicationRunner.exe
Publisher: Adobe Systems Incorporated
Type: Application
From: (server IP address)
I have tried excluding Adobe Air from the installation package, but I still receive the same security prompt. This is sufficiently a hassle to have to click through these prompts in a silent install. But more importantly I am unable to run the silent install as part of a logoff script because for all intents & purposes it is no longer a silent install (i.e. it requires user intervention). To top it off, I found when testing the logoff script the prompts are suppressed and the installation fails prior to the bulk of the installation (Photoshop, Illustrator, & InDesign).
I'm sure that I could run the install by copying all of the files to each local workstation, but again that would defeat the purpose of an easy, network-based install. In the past I was able to install CS3 in this fashion with no troubles, which of course did not include Adobe Air.
Can anybody offer a suggestion as to how to disable these security messages, or alternately, how to entirely exclude Adobe Air from the install package? I have found a VB script that is supposed to address the security warnings issue, but to run the script also requires the user to accept it at a security prompt.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!

I'm now able to deploy design suite premium cs4 successfully.
The issue for me was that the AirapplicationRunner installs some useless software. I worked around the issue with the Airapplicationrunner prompt by removing any apps that are installed using that method. By "removing" I mean marking that app as "donotinstall" in the deployment file. The apps I removed are these adobe codes for adobe media player, adobe.com, adobeair itself. The below is from my deploy.xml file used for the silent workflow:
donotinstall
donotinstall
donotinstall
If you mark those three adobe codes as "donotinstall" the prompt never appears and the real apps get installed just fine.

How can I do a silent install of Firefox 23 since the -ms switch doesn't work?

I have been able to do a silent install of all the previous versions of Firefox using the -ms switch. But when I use it on the new version, the user interface comes up and it never did that before. I have tried different silent switches but non of them worked.

Not the most experienced at this but are you using the stub installer, maybe you can try the classic installer and try again?
Hopefully this helps.
