Silent install does not work using /S argument

I am trying to perform a silent install of the Flash Player using the EXE.  I prefer not to use the MSI.  I am trying this command:
install_flash_player_10.exe /s
or
install_flash_player_ax.exe /s
Both commands produce this error:
Invalid argument or invalid use of argument '/s'
Has anyone encountered this before?  Thanks!

When we build SMS packages for deployment we also build uninstall packages in the event that we need to rollback. The silet uninstall command for Flash 10.1 is
install_flash_player_10.exe -uninstall
It also seems to remove both the ActiveX and Plugin version if both are installed as in our environment. The uninstall string the registry:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil10h_ActiveX.exe -maintain activex
does not work.
Thanks for posting the -install tip. I was having trouble with that.
Cheers!

  • CS4 Design Standard Silent Install does not work

    I've concluded CS4 Design Standard silent install for Macs does not work correctly. I've got the program to install sucessfully with an Exit Code: 0 and the programs still do not work. The whole suite says the licensing has stopped working. I've tried the License Repair utility from Adobe, no go. It looks like the program does not fully install. I noticed within each application directory, it should have an Uninstall application when installed correctly. When this application isn't there, which occurs with silent installs, the whole suite doesn't work.
    Its funny how Adobe wont help me with "enterprise installations". I haven't tried the Creative Suite Deployment Toolkit but I've read other threads where that doesn't work either.
    If someone would like to prove me wrong about the silent installs for CS4, please do so. I've gotten CS3 to install perfectly, and the setup is very similar for both.

    Jimmy,
    As one of the volunteer Forum Hosts, I've requested appropriate help.
    You can also get help via the support portal: http://www.adobe.com/go/supportportal
    Or via the phone: 800-642-3623, Monday-Friday 6am-5pm (Pacific time). BTW, the enterprise number you post isnt a valid number for support.
    Your email address (from your account info) was used to log a CCRT to get Tier 2 to email you, given that you've already tried tier 1 with no solution.
    Please post back and let us know how this works out for you. Thanks!

  • Lion Install does not work, says "This disk is used for Time Machine backups"

    I'm having trouble installing Lion onto my macbook pro intel core 2 duo. 
    I am backing up my computer with an external drive using TimeMachine, but i've disconnected it.  Also i'm running SL 10.6.8  
    I have a windows 7 partition that was created with boot camp.
    I've tried to make sure everything is all ready for lion but when I go to install lion it says "This disk is used for Time Machine backups" and the hard drive is grayed out.
    Same problem as this guy: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3190321?start=0&tstart=0
    I'm hearing that a file called "Backups.backupdb" is on the top level of the hard drive, but I see no such file.  I've looked at the invisible files and I cant find it.
    I've also created a bootable flash copy of the lion install but that does not work It gives me the same message "This disk is used for time Machine backups".

    "Backups.backupdb" if the file in Time Machine.  As the discussion says, you have to find that file and trash it.  Try spotlight to locate it.  If that does not work, down load OmniDiskSweeper from the Internet (free) and go through an organized search to find "Backups.backupdb".  If that takes too long or is too tedious, then if you have everything backed up, erase the HDD and start from square one.
    Ciao.

  • Equipmen dismantle, change plant, install does not work

    Hello experts,
    I have developed a function module which should execute the following steps:
    - dismantle an equipment from a functional location
    - change the plant of the equipment
    - install the equipment into a new functional location
    I therefor tried to use these three existing function modules:
    - Dismantle -> EQUIPMENT_DISMANTLE
    - Change Plant -> BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE
    - Install -> EQUIPMENT_INSTALL
    Now the problem occurs that the call of the BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE does not execute a commit so the changes are not directly written to the database and the following call of EQUIPMENT_INSTALL is not able to install the equipment into the new functional location.
    I tried to execute a BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after the BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE but still it does not work. In my dev system I can insert a "WAIT UP TO 1 SECONDS." call which work but this does not work in the testing env. Also this is a very bad approach.
    The curious thing is that everytime I debug my FM everything is working fine. So I bet there is a problem in the direct following call after the BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE and EQIPMENT_INSTALL.
    Here are the relevant calls:

    So, what I have done now is the following:
    IF bapiret2-type EQ 'S'.
        COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.
    *   now check if changes are written to db
        DO.
          l_iwerk = 0.
          " get the latest item entry
          SELECT SINGLE iwerk FROM equz
            INTO l_iwerk
            WHERE equnr EQ p_ls_equi-equnr AND
                  datbi EQ '99991231'.
          IF l_iwerk EQ equitime-planplant.
            p_rc = 0.
            EXIT.                 " data written to db -> exit
          ELSE.
            WAIT UP TO 2 SECONDS. " wait and check in next loop
          ENDIF.
          IF sy-index EQ 10.
            p_rc = 1.             " set returncode to 1
            EXIT.                 " after 10 times -> exit
          ENDIF.
        ENDDO.
      ENDIF.
    This code checks if the respective entry in the db is already written and if not retry to read it with a delay of 2 seconds.
    Looks a little bit ugly but does the job.
    If anyone could get me to a "better" solution I would be happy to hear!

  • HT1338 my software update does not work using OS X 10.6.8: update icon just stays static and times out, although web is online

    My software update does not work: the icon jams and then times out, although web is online. How to resolve??

    Snow Leopard DVD:
    You can get it only by phone now from Apple.
    In the US, call 1-800-MY-APPLE and ask for a sales assistant. Last quoted price was $19.99 for the single-user and $29.99 for the family licence.
    For other countries, check here; http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    Don't forget to ask for Sales; the tech support guys can't help.
    When you've installed SL it will be 10.6.3. You need to update that to 10.6.8 with the combo installer from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 - that gives you access to the Mac App store.
    Lion is only available by phone also - same number and they'll give you a download code to use in the Mac App Store.
    If you're going to Mountain Lion you don't need to install Lion first - you can do it straight from Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Specifications;
    Snow Leopard 10.6.x:
    Lion 10.7.x;
    Mountain Lion 10.8.x:
    As for Lion, but also must be one of these groups;
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminium, or Early 2009 or newer)

  • JRE 1.4 Silent Install does not install

    For testing purposes I downloaded the JRE installer (15+ MB) onto the Windows PC I wanted to test out the silent install on. I'm referencing the notes posted here: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/silent.html
    At the MS-DOS prompt I type the following command and nothing happens. I don't get any errors or anything and nothing seems to be running in the background. It just executes the command and returns to a blinking cursor.
    From this directory on my computer c:\Program Files\CF EMS\ I execute the following:
    j2re-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v "/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=c:\jre1.4 /L jresetup.log"
    Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Nothing ever gets installed.
    NOTE: If I double-click on the .exe installer, it runs the GUI installer and completes successfully so I know the executable works.
    Thank you for any help.
    - Billy -

    Figured it out for those of you that run into this issue... I needed to read the documentation a little more carefully...
    I originally had the following command j2re-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v "/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=c:\jre1.4 /L jresetup.log"
    I am using the offline installer. If you read the NOTES section in http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/plugin/developer_guide/silent.html you'll see in #3 it states that there should be no space between the /v and the "/qn in the command if you are using the Windows Offline Installation.
    So the correct command is:
    j2re-1_4_2_08-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v"/qn ADDLOCAL=ALL IEXPLORER=1 INSTALLDIR=c:\jre1.4 /L jresetup.log"

  • Ajax Autocomplete Tabular does not work using apex_item.text in SQL Query.

    Hello,
    Is it possible to use the search function which is used in, Dennis Kubicek example, ENAME topic Ajax Autocomplete Tabular
    in a sql query using apex_items?
    Query line :
    , apex_item.text(17,xp.part_nr,null,null,'onfocus="f_register(this);" autocomplete="off"') PART
    At first I followed the example by adding 'onfocus="f_register(this);" autocomplete="off" in the element attributes in the report field.
    This didn't work... so tried to add the it in the attirbutes parameter of the apex_item.
    But this still doesn't work. No errors are given, it does not respond.
    Could somebody please help me?
    Thx!

    I have a table on my system that tells you where the field is, and I'm using that to get the table (didn't want to change the javascript, so I pass in a static value).
    This is the javascript code I used
    <pre>
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    function f_register(p_this,p_name)
    var p_registered = $x('P5_ITEM_ID').value;
         var p_this_name = $x(p_this).id;
    //alert(p_this_name);
    if (p_registered != p_this_name)
    register(p_this_name, "COSTING_M", p_name, "blue", "red");
    $x('P5_ITEM_ID').value = p_this_name;
    </script>
    </pre>
    This is my query
    <pre>
    select column_name || apex_item.hidden(1,column_name) Col_name,
    apex_item.SELECT_LIST_FROM_lov(2,'=','OPERATOR') OPERATOR,

    I made some slight mods to make the table dynamic from my source table (this is to grab master files when they exist and not to when they don't).
    I get my select list, but it's blank on all fields, any suggestions?

  • Time stamp request does not work using Internet Explorer

    Hi fellows
    I get the following error information when signing a document only when I am using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro in the Internet Browser:
    Creation of this signature could not be completed. 
    Error encountered while signing: 
    Timestamp signature property generation error: 
    Transport connection timed out.
    This error only  occurs if a request to the time stamp server should be established. By using only the local computer time, the signature is placed and marked as valid in the browser. By using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 without Internet Explorer, the connection with the time stamp server works without exceptions, the legal time is used to sign the document. I tested various browsers, but have still the same error information.
    Does somebody have an idea what I can do to fix this problem?
    Thanks in advance!
    Leonard

    Hi Leonard,
    It should work (or to put it another way, it works for me). My guess is there is a proxy server issue. If I'm right it's likely that the browser is not configured to use the proxy server.

  • Adobe elements photo shop full install does not work. How do I get it to work?

      It worked before and now it doesn't. For some reason the computer is treating the full install as if it were a demo. I already registered the product when I first installed...... Only the organizer works now. I uninstalled and re installed but still doesn't work. How do I get it to work...I have windows 8.1...Please help...Thank you.
    Somehow the Adobe Manager is not recognizing the full install. Is that possible? There are 2 selections during installation ....trial or product key....
    I selected product key since I have the product key. The installation accepts the product key acts like it is installing but then it doesn't run...then I tried the demo installation without the key since I can't enter it in the box in demo mode....that doesn't run either.....Is the Adobe Manager the problem? How do I fix this?
    Once again, any help or tips will do...Thank you....

    The password prompt is supplied by the operating system, and is intended to protect you from accidentally installing software.  You will get this prompt for any installation outside the App Store context.
    If you do not need to enter a username or password when starting your computer, you can probably just leave the password field blank when acknowledging this prompt.
