That’s not how MDT would run. To simulate MDT, change to the network directory 
and run the script from there.

But not if I connect to the server from the target machine.

Yes, I can run the sep_install.bat from the local desktop and they work 
perfectly.

Do the scripts work when you run them manually?

Hi All,

 

I have an MDT server where I want to set up SEP in application Deployment. 
Below is the scripts I have tried:

 

>From Daniel:

 

@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.

 

Any help sure would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Guys,

 

Thanks for the assistance. The DOS window comes up when the script starts but 
then it dies, windows close, and I get the white MDT completion window with no 
errors.

 

I am not sure at this point if the problem is in the .bat file or the command 
line?

 

Thanks again in advance,

 

Dave Landry

Be aware of smart quotes…

 

Additionally, be aware that if you had one bad software package that was 
installed to c:\program files (x86) on a x86 system it would fail.

 

If you want to get cute…


@if not defined debug echo off

 

if /i "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%%PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432%"=="x86" (

       msiexec /i "%~dps0SEP_12.1.4013.4013_32bit\Sep.msi" /qn /L*V log.txt 
SYMREBOOT=Suppress

) else (

       msiexec /i "%~dps0SEP_12.1.4013.4013_64bit\Sep64.msi" /qn /L*V log.txt 
SYMREBOOT=Suppress

)

Always use %~dp0 when calling files from a .bat file, especially when running 
from the network. 

 

@echo off

IF "%ProgramFiles(x86)%"=="C:\Program Files (x86)" goto x64 else goto x86

:x86

ECHO System is x86

msiexec /i “%~dp0SEP_12.1.4013.4013_32bit\Sep.msi” /qn /L*V log.txt 
SYMREBOOT=Suppress

goto exit

:x64

ECHO System is x64

msiexec /i “%~dp0SEP_12.1.4013.4013_64bit\Sep64.msi” /qn /L*V log.txt 
SYMREBOOT=Suppress

goto exit

:exit

Hi All,

 

I have been having a heck of a time trying to get SEP to install. I have 
imported the installation files for both 32bit and 64bit (in separate folders) 
along with a .bat file to run them from MDT. The bat file is:

 

@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

 

I have tried many different command lines which have all resulted in either a 
white completion window with no errors or a yellow completion window with a 
return code: 1. The command I have in there right now is: 

 

cmd.exe /c 
\\”servername”\mdt\applications\Symantec_Endpoint_Protection\sep_install.bat 
<file:///\\”servername”\mdt\applications\Symantec_Endpoint_Protection\sep_install.bat>
 

 

I have also copied the install folder to the desktop of a test machine and it 
ran fine.

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Dave
