MES install command

The MES install command syntax is:

Setup.exe /silent /mingui install_response_file

where

• Setup.exe is the file path (if needed) and file name of the MES Setup tool executable file.

• /silent is the switch that causes the installation to run in the background without a user interface.

• /mingui is an optional switch that, if included, runs the installation with minimum GUI.

• install_response_file is the file path (if needed) and file name of the XML response file that specifies what MES components to install. Only one response file can be entered.

For example:

C:\CD-MES>Setup.exe /silent response.txt

The command must be run by a user with a Windows Administrator user account.

Notes:
- For systems where System Platform (SP) 2023 R2 SP1 Patch 3 is installed, do not install the MES Cloud Integration feature because it is incompatible with SP Patch 3.
- If the response file contains both install and configuration entries make sure to install MES first, and then perform the configuration after. For more information, see Configurator command.
