rshadd Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 Is it possible to have WPI configured to install my apps from a UNC path? It seems that when I add the double backslash it is getting converted to a single backslash by the time it gets added to the registry.e.g. "\\dmmsupport1\install\_SETUP\sqlcli\standard\x86\setup\setupsql.exe" -s -m -SMS -f1 "\\dmmsupport1\install\_SETUP\sqlcli\standard\sqlcli.iss"turn into..."\dmmsupport1\install\_SETUP\sqlcli\standard\x86\setup\setupsql.exe" -s -m -SMS -f1 "\dmmsupport1\install\_SETUP\sqlcli\standard\sqlcli.iss" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritishBulldog Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 yes you can and it is simply adding 6 backslashes! yes \\\\\\ before the server name.your code would becmd1[pn]=['\\\\\\dmmsupport1\\install\\_SETUP\\sqlcli\\standard\\x86\\setup\\setupsql.exe -s -m -SMS -f1"\\\\\\dmmsupport1\\install\\_SETUP\\sqlcli\\standard\\sqlcli.iss"'] This is code entered directly into the config.js, not sure what would happen if you use the config option.just tested it in config.jsWith this you should not use the config option at all, as it parses the 6 backslashes with every click of the save button so that you are eventually left with only two.Best if you have a plain Server install to use an older version.
