Can you run the msiexec from a command prompt?
I'm not an msiexec giant, but as written (and ignoring 'smart' quotes using only the straight ones) - assuming it's running from C:\temp, the msiexec command line would expanded as (for the 32 bit one): msiexec /i "C:\temp\SSEP_12.1.4013.4013_32bit\Sep.msi" /qn /L*V log.txt SYMREBOOT=Suppress Is this correct? (the %~dp0 gets turned into the path where your script is; it includes a trailing back-slash) From: listsad...@lists.myitforum.com [mailto:listsad...@lists.myitforum.com] On Behalf Of David Landry Sent: Monday, October 20, 2014 12:15 pm To: scripting@lists.myitforum.com Subject: [scripting] MDT scripting / command line issue Hi All, I know almost nothing about scripting, so I just wanted to get that out there. I have an MDT server where I want to set up SEP in application Deployment. Below is the scripts I have tried: @echo off IF "%ProgramFiles(x86)%"=="C:\Program Files (x86)" goto x64 else goto x86 :x86 ECHO System is x86 msiexec /i "%~dp0SSEP_12.1.4013.4013_32bit\Sep.msi" /qn /L*V log.txt SYMREBOOT=Suppress goto exit :x64 ECHO System is x64 msiexec /i "%~dp0SSEP_12.1.4013.4013_64bit\Sep64.msi" /qn /L*V log.txt SYMREBOOT=Suppress goto exit :exit -------------and------------ @echo off IF "%ProgramFiles(x86)%"=="C:\Program Files (x86)" goto x64 else goto x86 :x86 ECHO System is x86 msiexec /i SEP_12.1.4013.4013_32bit\Sep.msi /qn /L*V log.txt SYMREBOOT=Suppress goto exit :x64 ECHO System is x64 msiexec /i SEP_12.1.4013.4013_64bit\Sep64.msi /qn /L*V log.txt SYMREBOOT=Suppress goto exit :exit The command lines have varied quite a bit. But I started with: Cmd.exe /c sep_install.bat The source/working directory in MDT on the software package is: .\Applications\Symantec_Endpoint_Protection The best I have been able to do is get the script to start (it opens a DOS window) then identifies the OS, but it dies right there. Sometimes with no error or return code, sometimes with a return code: 1. I am totally at my wits end here as no combination of commands is working. (Lack of knowledge is the problem) Any help would sure be appreciated.
