SMART Essentials For Educators - Deployment Nightmare

[RobFuller]

It's driving me mad this program and trying to get it to install all the content on the machine, let along get it to register a shared folder!

Can I please ask if anyone has any joy with this program and what they did to get it to install remotely, its driving me mad!!

I've got the content installed on a shared network folder and there's a registry key which tells it where to look:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SMART Technologies Inc.\Gallery\TeamContent\gallery.smarttech.com]
"ImsManifestXml"="\\\\server\\folder\\SMART 9.5 Gallery\\imsmanifest.xml"

You need that XML file in there, or it won't see anything. I think I might have installed it manually to the hard disk once, then copied the folder up to the server so that the XML file was correct. Can't remember for definite now though.

Thanks Nick i'll give that a try!!

Works, defiantly need to manual install it first then make the reg file.

Cheers Nick! 8)

Just saying thanks Nick!

Just logged on specifically to ask if there was a registry key for an MST file - havent tried it yet, but you're a star!
