Installing Pidgin Without User Intervention

IRRISysAd · 01-07-2010, 09:58 PM

Hi! Is there a way to bypass the dialogue boxes when installing this particular application (Pidgin)?

We managed to convert the .EXE to .MSI using an open-source software. However, when deploying, dialogue boxes still appear even when set as Hidden and /quiet.

The installation needs to determine on the language, whether it should run after the installation, select some other features, which we do not want to appear during deployment.

The only command we have is

msiexec /i \\path\pidgin-2.6.4.msi /qn ALLUSERS=1

Please help. Thank you in advance

Never mind. I used .exe instead and here's the command:

\\path\pidgin-2.6.4.exe /qn /DS=0 /SMS=1 /S ALLUSERS=1

It worked fine. The next task would probably be including it in the Startup.
