I have created a MyEclipse Blue installation configuration and created both an offline and online installer. We need to be able to specify the installation directory for this configuration to the path C:\Genuitec\MyEclipseBlue. I have been unable to figure out the unattended response file settings to accomplish this.
The installation’s were generated from the Secure Delivery Center.
Hello Devin.
We are sorry you are having this problems. As I understand you want to do un unattended install of MyEclipse, and you want to change the install directory. Our SDC installers does support silent installs, and you can specify the installation directory. In the SDC documentation we explain how to do it:
http://genuitec.com/sdc/docs/sdc_admin.html#appendix_aIn that page you will find an example of the response .properties file, you just need to customize it. If you have any problem doing this, please let me know I will be happy to help you.
Best Regards.
Héctor – Pulse SupportWhat I have found is that if the command windows is opened with “Run as administrator”, the result is that the install goes to the logged in uers c:\users\userid\AppData\temp directory, but if the command window is opened without “Run as administrator” the install goes to the correct directory in the response file. This may be an issue with our product deployments with SCCM as these are run with administrator rights. Below is the response file values that I’m using.
delivery.install.folder=C:/Genuitec/MyEclipseBlueWeb
delivery.install.architecture=x86
directory.base=C:/Genuitec
directory.profile=C:/Genuitec/MyEclipseBlueWeb
osgi.os=win32
osgi.ws=win32
osgi.arch=x86
result.file=c:/temp/MyEclipseBlueWeb_Install_Online.log
software.preset=allHello again.
We was trying to reproduce your problem but we do see the right behaviour, so in order to find a solution I have to questions for you:
1. Which OS are you installing into?
2. Are you automatically generating the response file?
3. If you are, is it bassed off in the User that’s logged in?Best Regards.
Héctor – Pulse SupportThe OS is Windows 7 Enterprise 32bit and I manually created the response file using notepad. I’m not sure why we are getting a different response betwen just opening a command window and opening the command window with “Run As Administrator”. The concern I have is that our software deployment process through SCCM is normally if not always run with a administrator process. What is the command line to auto generate the responsefile? I could try to autogenerate it to see if that makes a difference and compare it to my manually created responsefile.
I appreciate your prompt attention to this issue.
Hello Devin.
It’s fine to create the response file by hand. We will need more information in order to diagnose the problem an come with a solution:
1) Can you please send me the result file for both kind of the runnings (One as normal user and one as Administrator)
2) Can you also provide the exact command line run for both kinds, including the directory it was run from.
3) And, if the response file is diferent than the one you provided before, can you send it too?We are sorry for your problems, and one we have that information we will keep working to find a solution for you.
Best Regards.
Héctor – Pulse SupportHéctor, I am re-running some installation tests this morning. We have made a change on the desktop and the installation appears to be working with both a normal command window and an administrative commad window. I still need to do a few more validation tests and will update this thread whether the issue has been resolved on our end or not.
