fredbloggs Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 My applications don't seem to be installing in the order I have specified in the config.I have attached a screenshot of the order that my install seems to be going in, as you can see from the screenshot compared to the config.js file it doesn't seem correct.It should beProliant Support PackOfficeScanCitrix Management Consoles 1Citrix Management Consoles 2Citrix PS 4.5Finish InstallI am using WPI 5.6 and have tried placing ' ' around the ordr field, i.e. ordr[pn]=['1'] but this hasn't helped either.The strange thing is when I go to the Config section it shows the applications in the order that they install in, but if I then go to 'Options' and then 'Config' it shows the applications in the Installation order specified. Doesn't makre any difference to the install order though.I have seen another post that sort of references the same problem whereby the install order I have specified doesn't seem to take effect.http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=54965Any other ideas would be grwatly appreciatedThanksMarkMy config.js shows up as ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------// Your programs here ...//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------pn=1;prog[pn]=['ProLiant Support Pack'];ordr[pn]=[1];desc[pn]=['Installs HP support tools'];uid[pn]=['PROLIANTSUPPORTPACK'];dflt[pn]=['yes'];cat[pn]=['System'];forc[pn]=['yes'];cmd1[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Proliant_SupportPack\\setupc.exe" /use-latest'];cmd2[pn]=['%reboot% 30'];pn++;prog[pn]=['Office Scan'];ordr[pn]=[2];desc[pn]=['Trend OfficeScan AV software'];uid[pn]=['OFFICESCAN'];dflt[pn]=['yes'];cat[pn]=['System'];forc[pn]=['yes'];deps[pn]=['PROLIANTSUPPORTPACK'];cmd1[pn]=['\\\\msfs03\\ps4im$\\Packages\\Initial Build\\TrendOfficeScan\\officescan@090207.msi'];cmd2[pn]=['%reboot% 30'];pn++;prog[pn]=['Citrix Install Mode'];ordr[pn]=[3];desc[pn]=['Changes Citrix into Install Mode'];uid[pn]=['CITRIXINSTALLMODE'];dflt[pn]=['yes'];cat[pn]=['System'];forc[pn]=['no'];deps[pn]=['OFFICESCAN'];cmd1[pn]=['"%WINDIR%\\system32\\change.exe" user /install'];pn++;prog[pn]=['Citrix Management Consoles - 1'];ordr[pn]=[4];desc[pn]=['Access Suite Console Framework - Required for the management components of Citrix'];uid[pn]=['CITRIXMANAGEMENTCONSOLES-1'];dflt[pn]=['yes'];cat[pn]=['System'];forc[pn]=['no'];deps[pn]=['CITRIXINSTALLMODE'];cmd1[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_Framework.msi" /qb-!'];cmd2[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_HotfixManagement.msi" /qb-!'];cmd3[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_Diagnostics.msi" /qb-!'];cmd4[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_KnowledgeBase.msi" /qb-!'];cmd5[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_Legacy.msi" /qb-!'];cmd6[pn]=['"E:\\Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_ReportCenter.msi" /qb-!'];pn++;prog[pn]=['Citrix Management Consoles - 2'];ordr[pn]=[5];desc[pn]=['Access Suite Console Framework - Required for the management components of Citrix'];uid[pn]=['CITRIXMANAGEMENTCONSOLES-2'];dflt[pn]=['yes'];cat[pn]=['System'];forc[pn]=['no'];deps[pn]=['CITRIXINSTALLMODE'];cmd1[pn]=['"\\\\msfs03\\install$\\Win2003 TS Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_WebInterface.msi" /qb-!'];cmd2[pn]=['"\\\\msfs03\\install$\\Win2003 TS Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_Licensing.msi" /qb-!'];cmd3[pn]=['"\\\\msfs03\\install$\\Win2003 TS Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_PresentationServer.msi" /qb-!'];cmd4[pn]=['"\\\\msfs03\\install$\\Win2003 TS Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Access Management Console\\Setup\\ASC_PSReports.msi" /qb-!'];cmd5[pn]=['"\\\\msfs03\\install$\\Win2003 TS Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Administration\\Presentation Server Console\\CMC.msi" /qb-!'];cmd6[pn]=['"\\\\msfs03\\install$\\Win2003 TS Install\\Citrix\\CPS45_EN_W2K3\\Documentation\\docs.msi" /qb-!'];pn++;prog[pn]=['Install Citrix PS4.5'];ordr[pn]=[6];desc[pn]=['Install Citrix Server 4.5.

Kelsenellenelvian Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Wow a very clear and concise post!!! Thank you!Now this may be a very stupid question but here goes...Do you have this option enabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredbloggs Posted May 31, 2007 Author Share Posted May 31, 2007 (edited) You can tell I'm a noob.Options -> Installer -> Sort Within Categories I presume.Anyway, unchecking that seems to have reverted it to the order specified in config.js which is a partial success. However it still isn't taking account of the order value.Other option I can think of is renaming each application with a prefix, something like 0001 - Proliant.... 0002 - Office Scan etc.ThanksWhoops, missed your screenshot, I'll try that in a minute Edited May 31, 2007 by fredbloggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredbloggs Posted May 31, 2007 Author Share Posted May 31, 2007 Guess I needed to RTFM.Hadn't realised that 'Install By Category' was the option I wanted, manual says it all really.Still, even before this the applications weren't being installed in the order specified in my config.js but that's another story.ThanksMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
