WfH Silent Install
The silent installer allows for unattended installation of the WfH Client. To install silently, the following syntax is used:
WfHClientSetup.exe /s /v"/qn PROPERTIES”
|
Argument |
Meaning |
Example |
|---|---|---|
|
/s |
Tells the WfHClientSetup.exe to run silently. |
|
|
/v |
Tells the WfHClientSetup.exe to pass all parameters within this argument to the internal MSI. Therefore, the remaining parameters are inside quotes. |
|
|
/qn |
This is passed to the MSI to tell it to run in quiet mode with no UI. Additional options that can be used: /q[n|b|r|f]
When using /qn from a command-line, the command prompt must first be elevated to Administrator privileges. In other cases where there is a UI, the installer can prompt for elevation. |
|
|
PROPERTIES |
These are the public properties that are set to configure the system. Each property name is all uppercase, and the value is set via an '='. (i.e. PROPERTY=value). When property values have spaces, the values must be quoted with the quotes escaped via a \ character (e.g. PROPERTY=\"value with spaces\") See the properties section below. |
CORE_PORT=8080 ENABLE_SSL=0 |
Set the following properties using VARIABLE=VALUE formatting. If there are spaces in a value, they must be surrounded with quotes. These quotes must be escaped with a \. Any \ characters must also be escaped with a \ (i.e. \\)
