Oops, I should have read the documentation more thoroughly, as always.
Thank you very much Kevin.
I shall Ctrl-C Ctrl-V RTFM a hundred times, I promise. :D

Cheers,

[Unattended] pausing between software instals

2008-07-11 Thread Oliver Henriot
Hi all,

During software setup at the end of machine installation I regularly get
messages saying that the batch file is not recognized as command file
and asking me whether I want to ignore, retry or abort. If I retry,
installation resumes fine.
I presume the error is due to my server not being responsive enough and
needing a little time to properly serve a new .bat command file after
the previous installation.
I suppose therefore that introducing a pause between the installation of
two software packages would solve my problem.
However, I don't know how to insert an equivalent to, say, "sleep 10" in
todo.pl between two installations.
Needless to say that :
todo.pl apackage.bat sleep 10 another.bat
in base.bat does not work.
Maybe it's just a question of syntax but, as you might have guessed, I'm
not what you might call a perl expert. :D
Can someone guide me on this point?
Thanks.

Cheers,

Oliver
