Sgt_Strider Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 I double click on the setup file and a popup appears with the following text:"Command line parameters:/L Language ID/S Hide initalization dialog. For silent mode use: /S/v/qn./V paramters to MsiExec.exe/UA/UW/UM"What do I need to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigeratiPrime Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 are you using the installer from Microsoft here?Microsoft ActiveSync 4.1 - Worldwide EnglishActivesync command line paramater errorhttp://thinkabdul.com/2006/02/21/activesyn...aramater-error/When you launch the Activesync 4.1 setup you may get the following error:Command line parameters:/L language ID/S Hide initialization dialog. For silent mode use: /S/v/qn./V parameters to MsiExec.exe/UA/UW/UMThis happens due to missing or incorrect TEMP or TMP environment variables. When you download setup.msi from Microsoft, the setup will first extract all the files to your Windows XP Profile’s Temporary folder (%temp% , not c:\windows\temp)To resolve this error:Go to your System Properties—->Advanced—->Environment VariablesMake sure you have the following user variables:1) TEMP- %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp2) TMP- %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\TempIf you don’t, manually add these variables. After adding these variables, restart the computer and try to launch the setup and it should run normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clavicle Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I have been using Active Sync 4.2 using "/qb-! /norestart" switches. Since 4.1 was also msi package, this option will workd for it too.Try it!After uninstalling my activesync 4.2, I have installed Activesync 4.1 using Microsoft_ActiveSync_4.1.msi /qb-! /norestartIt works!
