Kerio Personal Firewall woes

[Mekrel]

Hey all.

Ive had kerio working for ages, and then it seemed to stop installing when I integrated the codec pack.

During the RunOnceEx, it just highlights Kerio but takes like a milli second to go onto the next programe, as if its being skipped.

and I have kerio-pf-4.1.2-en-win.exe in this folder:

Like I said.... it was working before =(

[MCT]

dammit man, use the search function, i bet ive posted this switch 30 times lol

kerio-pf-4.1.2-en-win.exe /s /v"/qn REBOOT=Suppress

use that dont modify it ... it works

[bonedaddy]

looks like your using the correct code, something else must have

changed, check all...........

EDIT

if there is a space in kp f then that is your problem......................

This is what I use..............and works all the time...what is it MCT? The v is a

cap? Or is it the quote " mark?

%cdrom%\software\kerio\kpf412.exe /s /v"/qn REBOOT=Suppress"

ahh....you know I came right out of a batch file into WPI. And WPI is not as demanding

as RunOnceEx on it's code....that's why I don't need \" .

@bonedaddy

I don't see him leaving a space between kpf. I don't think that is his issue.

@MCT

I'm sorry but I'm sure you're forgetting a closing quotation mark. If you look at his code, its very similiar to yours - mismatched quotation marks. Comon, it's the holiday season, lighten up.

@Mekrel

Just a suggestion, rename kerio-pf-4.1.2-en-win.exe to something shorter like kpf412.exe and then use this code and it should run fine.

REG ADD %KEY%\008 /VE /D "Kerio Personal Firewall 4.1.2" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\008 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\kpf\kpf412.exe /S /V\"/qn REBOOT=Suppress\"" /f

@vcBlackBox

that code is 100% correct, his isnt , it installs fine on my pc with above code

ps: i meant the "dammit" as a joke..

[Mekrel]

Well I didnt search because I didnt honestly think the switch was wrong.

I had it installing fine on my last 5 test installs.(so it wouldnt just stop working) Seemed not to install when I added the media codecs.

This was 4.11, so I downloaded 4.12 and tried the same syntax and was also a no go.

I know what the code is, I pasted it from you from another thread MCT about 2 weeks ago

But I will rename it (obvious thing to do ;/ ) and try. Thanks lads

EDIT: Is a no go ,

@ vcBlackbox:

Your code:

REG ADD %KEY%\008 /VE /D "Kerio Personal Firewall 4.1.2" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\008 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\kpf\kpf412.exe /S /V[b]\[/b]"/qn REBOOT=Suppress\[b]"[/b]" /f

What does this extra backslash do and whats the extra " for?

I havent tried your switch yet, but im also going to change my RunonceEX commands to sets of 5's - instead of going up in ones.

Edit#2: vcBlackBox - your capplication switch works , thanks.

Weird, weird - the fact is was working and then stoped

[vcBlackBox]

What does this extra backslash do and whats the extra " for?

the \ is needed whenever you use quotes within a quote (nested quotes).

for example:

"outer \"inner\" outer"

gets translated to:

"outer "inner" outer"

I'm glad it worked out for you. I told you it would.

[Mekrel]

aha haa I see, like the \'s within the IE 5.0 CSS box model hack.

But how do i install kerio in advanced learning mode ?
