Install in Silent Mode

You can install AVEVA Work Tasks in silent mode using AVEVA Work Tasks Installer with switches for silent mode.

The installation of AVEVA Work Tasks in silent mode considers user inputs from command-line parameters.

The full syntax for running the installer from the command line is as follows:

"<Installer EXE Name>.exe" /S /v/qn

For example: "AVEVA Work Tasks 2023 R2.exe" /S /v/qn

where,

• /S denotes silent install

• /v denotes pass arguments to Msiexec (Basic MSI and InstallScript MSI projects). The /v option is used to pass command line options and values of public properties through to Msiexec.exe.

• /qn denotes an msiexec switch indicating to run with no user interface (UI).

This command string takes the default values for parameters, such as user name, installation location, and company name.

Silent installation command with custom values for parameters

If you want to provide custom values for these parameters, then enter the syntax for silent installation command as follows:

"<Installer EXE Name>.exe" /S /v"/qn INSTALLDIR=\"<Custom Path>\""

For example: "AVEVA Work Tasks 2023 R2.exe" /S /v"/qn INSTALLDIR=\"C:\InstallationTest\""

Note:
- After you run the silent installer, wait for a minimum of 30 minutes until the installation is complete. Check the AVEVA Work Tasks installation folder to ensure that all the required files and folders are copied to the installation folder.
- Silent Installation of Work Tasks may exit after installing the .Net Framework 4.8 prerequisite. Machine restart is required for the .Net Framework to be considered as installed and only then can our installer proceed to the next pre- requisite.

You can also call the Installer from a batch file. For more information about sample batch file script for installing and configuring AVEVA Work Tasks in silent mode, see Sample Batch File Script for Installing and Configuring Workflow Management in Silent Mode.
