I used to use Fusion Inventory for deploying packages, I think I may have written some of that guide. However, ever since 0.85 it's gotten so broken that I ended up moving my software deployment to puppet + chocolatey for Windows. I think in the latest versions they do support ad hoc tests, but really, I get the feeling it's not designed to focus on software deployments, but rather tasks that I never could work out how to get them to work reliably. I'd be interested to know if you get it worked out, but I'm pretty happy using a "real package manager" and puppet for this now.

Do you get any errors reported? Is the agent checking in regularly (I always set back to 1hr instead of every 24hr)? Have you forced an agent run on the Windows side?

Hello,

I'm using FusionInventory 9.1 + 1.1 plugin with GLPI 9.1.5 and would like to 
deploy software. I've tried to follow instructions as described on the 
documentation but information from this document is outdated 
(http://fusioninventory.org/documentation/tasks/deploy/) and do not represent 
latest FusionInventory version. So I've started to do it from what I can 
imagine without success.

1 - Go to Deploy | Package management and added/created a new package 
(Firefox.exe to test).

2 - Then, go to Tasks | Task management and created a new task 'Task 
management' with following entries:
       Name : Deployment test
       Active : Checked
       Re-prepare a target-actor if previous run is successful : Checked
       Timeslot : 24x7
       Agent wakeup interval : 7
      Number of agents to wake up : 10
      The rest of the fields are empty.

3 - After that, I created a new 'Jobs configuration' with following entries:
      Name: Firefox deploy
      Module method: Package deploy
      Targets : My package I've created at step 1
      Actors : One of my Windows computer

4 - I've restarted the fusion inventory init script but since now, no firefox 
package installed on my Windows machine.

I don't know if I've forgetter something in my steps, thanks.

Regards,
