islander_810 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) Hi, i want to perform silent install of applications in WIHU. I've done it in RunOnceEx and WPI too and i know the required switches.However, with WIHU, i'm facing a prob which says file not found.For eg, to install Notepad++, i use these lines in 'install.ini'description.1 = Notepad++command.1 = "%WIHU%\Install\Utilities\nppinstaller4.5.exe\" /Sand i get an error saying file not found. Even changing it to command.1 = "\"%WIHU%\Install\Utilities\nppinstaller4.5.exe\" /S"doesn't work. However, upon removing /S it works.command.1 = "%WIHU%\Install\Utilities\nppinstaller4.5.exe"I can't perform silent installs. Can someone pls help me?

Camarade_Tux Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 If your example is real, you have a backware slash before the ending quote, right after the file extension.Also, you don't need the quotes. Here is an excerpt of my install.inidescription.1=UniExtractcommand.1=%WIHU%\AHK\AHK.exe %WIHU%\AHK\misc.txt 7z x %WIHU%\Apps\Compression\UniExtract.7z -o"%UniExtract%"selected.1=1The quotes around %UniExtract% are needed because it can contain spaces and 7zip would have a problem (I use an ahk script to hide 7zip's command window).

islander_810 Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 Works like a charm now, ThxI didn't think to remove the quotes after removing the spaces. I read your XP Mod post btw, good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tefole Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 btw: i discovered, that its not possible to use more than one quote for each command line.e.g.c:\program files\myprogram\myprogram.exex:\My Programs\my files.xyzcommand.0.1="%programfiles%\myprogram\Myprogram.exe" "x:\My Programs\my files.xyz"will not work, in the upper exampe you need quotes, because the path/filenames contains spaces.The solution i found, its to not user more than one quote pair.

Camarade_Tux Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 (edited) I think you can but have to escape some so that your example looks like : command.0.1="\"%programfiles%\myprogram\Myprogram.exe\" \"x:\My Programs\my files.xyz\"" Edited May 7, 2008 by Camarade_Tux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
