PSexec MSI MST

[usera]

Greeting,

I have a command line as below:

c:\temp\psexec -accepteula -u domain\administrator -p Password1 msiexec /i "\\shareserever\Folder\qa.msi" TRANSFORMS="\\shareserver\Folder\qas.mst" /qn

it works no problem,

since it has password inside, I want to use autoit to do the same thing, but compile it to EXE file.

So here is the code I am using:

 

$username="domain\administrator"
$password="Password1"

runWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & "C:\temp\psexec.exe " & '-accepteula -u ' & $username & ' -p' & $password & ' msiexec /i ' & "\\shareserver\folder\qa.msi" & ' TRANSFORMS="\\shareserver\Folder\qa.mst" /qn')

 

Once run it, I got a black window show:

Could not access shareserver\folder\qa.msi :

the system cannot find the path specified.

 

Thanks and Best Regards,

usera

Try something like, the following to check that the command is correct, I noticed that you didn't have a space between -p and password not sure if this was just a typo.

Try with and without #RequireAdmin, can't remember if you have to run CMD as Administrator.

#RequireAdmin
Global $sUserName="domain\administrator"
Global $sPassword="Password1"

Global $sCommandLine = @ComSpec & " /c C:\temp\psexec.exe -accepteula -u " & $sUserName & " -p " & $sPassword & ' MsiExec /i "\\shareserver\folder\qa.msi" TRANSFORMS="\\shareserver\Folder\qa.mst" /qn'
MsgBox(4096, "Command Line Switch", $sCommandLine) ;~ For debugging purposes
RunWait($sCommandLine)

THANKS,

 

I did use you code try,

1. remove #RequireAdmin

2. Command Line Switch: show

   c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c C:\temp\psexec.exe -accepteula -u domain\administrator -p Password1 MsiExec /i "\\shareserver\folder\qa.msi" TRANSFORMS="\\shareserver\Folder\qa.mst" /qn

   looks right, then once I click ok, new black windows open then close

4. I add 2 line there

$result=RunWait($sCommandLine)
MsgBox(4096,"Result",$result)

The result is 1619.

but the applicaiton did not install.

any way I can pause ( trace ) the runwait command?

 

thanks

try not removing RequireAdmin. Also there should be a log file in the temp directory and you could read that log file and see what went wrong or if you post it I will analyze it

Thanks Earthshine,

the idea is avoid RequireAdmin , So I have to that.

no log file(s) created, nor C:\windows\temp neither %temp%

Thanks for help

 

$result=RunWait($sCommandLine)
MsgBox(4096,"Result",$result)

The result is 1619.
