Silent Install Custom Folder

[Vijay]

Hi,

I am trying to deploy VS 2012 Pro and Telerik Dev UI using SCCM 2012.

Is there a commandline syntax for custom install dir. I want to install it to D: instead of normal c:\Program FilesXXXX.

Also will it work for other Dev UI Tools?

Regards

VJ

Hi Vijay,

Thank you for contacting us.

You can use the command line below for any of our Telerik Dev UI packages to perform a silent installation on a custom location.

[MSI Package Directory]\[MSI Package Name].msi /q INSTALLLOCATION="[Install Location]"

[MSI Package Directory] - the location of the package you want to install
[MSI Package Name] - the name of the package you want to install
[Install Location] - a custom install location

Please let me know if you need any further assistance.


Kind regards,

Vesko

Thanks for that, is there a way to suppress the installer to open a browser after installation?

Hi Vijay,

Yes. Here is the command line:

[MSI Package Directory]\[MSI Package Name].msi /q INSTALLLOCATION="[Install Location]" DISABLE_FINISH_URL=TRUE

Just for future reference, can you provide all the installer switches possible?

Hi,

Properties with names containing no lowercase letters are public properties and can be specified on the command line. The link below is a full list of public properties defined by Windows Installer.

Here is a useful example of how to use a Feature Installation property to install some of the package features only:

[MSI Package Directory]\[MSI Package Name].msi /q ADDLOCAL=[FeatureList]

[FeatureList] is a feature name or feature names separated by ';'

Here is a short list of features that can be optionally installed by the command line:

Assemblies35 - .Net Framework 3.5 controls only
Assemblies40 - .Net Framework 4.0 controls only
Assemblies45 - .Net Framework 4.5 controls only
VSExtensions - our Visual Studio Integration
TelerikVSExtensionsVS2010 - our Visual Studio 2010 integration only
TelerikVSExtensionsVS2012 - our Visual Studio 2012 integration only

Note: the features listed are RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX specific and may vary for other products.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for more details.


All the best,
