Final solution for installing Illustrator CS2 with AutoIt. Verified to work on both virtual and real format.

1. Edit the registration and userinformation fields in Abcpy.ini. (Leave the other options as default).

SERIALNUMBER=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
USERNAME=XXXXX
COMPANYNAME=XXXXXXXX

2. Run the following AutoIt script (compiled to .exe) with no switches from WPI/RunOnceExe or whatever you use to install applications.

; AutoIt Options.
AutoItSetOption("TrayIconHide", 1)
AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)

Run('msiexec /i "' & @ScriptDir & '\Adobe Illustrator CS2.msi"')

; Welcome dialog.
If WinWait("Adobe Illustrator CS2 - Setup", "The InstallShield(R) Wizard will install Adobe Illustrator CS2") Then
ControlClick("Adobe Illustrator CS2 - Setup", "The InstallShield(R) Wizard will install Adobe Illustrator CS2", "Button1")

I have messed my Abcpy.ini and now everytime i install illustrator using the script above, illustrator prompt me to enter the serial number, (I am using the autoit script mentioned above), what is weird for me is that if i try to install it by double clicking the Illustrator.exe which is the autoit file it installs perfectly without interruption but if i am doing it from an unattended xp it hungs on this windows "The following information must be entered before installation" when i enter my serial number, the autoit script continue normally

below is my Abcpy.ini

;***************************************************************

;Adobe Installer External Configuration File: Abcpy.ini

do i need to put the serial number in this format?

SERIALNUMBER="XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"

or maybe the sequence has to be the same as illustrator asks which is:

[OEM Install]

USERNAME=Nakkoush

COMPANYNAME=Home

SERIALNUMBER=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have the same probleme,

The Autoit script work but it still ask me the serial. My serial work and is in the Abcpy.ini.

When i launch the msi file without autoit it dont find my serial in Abcpy.ini ! I don't understand.

My Abcpy.ini look like :

[OEM Install]

USERNAME=Bluberry

COMPANYNAME=Home

SERIALNUMBER=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX

Is this possible to enter the serial with autoit ? and how ?

Thanks, You're great
