Hello

Thank you in advance

[caffrey]

You need to add it to your task sequence (assuming that you've already imported the app under applications) under State Restore - Add , General - Install Application

[Panos93x]

Yes already done it but my problem Is the the command . Because with other apps I don’t have any problem only with chrome so I believe is the command

[caffrey]

Parameters?

 

I have msiexec.exe /i googlechromestandaloneenterprise64.msi /qn

[Panos93x]

Already use it but nothing I got error return code 1639. Do you know more parameters to try ??

[caffrey]

Nope that's all I use

Can you post a screenshot of your install command similar to the one shown above?

[strawberry]

Can you access the unc path as a normal user? Can you run the file? Can you run the command line?

[Panos93x]

here is the file:

and here is the istall command from the app

[caffrey]

Did you add the application via > Application \ New application ?

[Panos93x]

i import 3 apps all of them working but not the chrome so the process is correct but not the install command

[Panos93x]

i used the ussf program to find the install commands for all apps but for chrome does not working so does anyone knows anothe app to find universal silent switch?

[themightymrp]

It looks like you haven't imported the application into MDT yet? The files still appear to be in your downloads folder looking at the first screenshot.

[themightymrp]

To make sure you have this right:

 

Put the chrome MSI file in a folder all of its own. In MDT workbench, go to the Applications folder, right click and choose to add a new application. Select to add an application with source files.

 

On the next screen fill out the name of the program and go Next. Browse for the folder containing the MSI, click Next and enter the folder name you want to give it (Google Chrome). On the last screen it asks for the command line, use the one posted above as this IS correct.

 

The application will be imported correctly into the database and you should be able to try the deployment again.

If you still have problems after following @themightymrp's instructions above try adding NOGOOGLEUPDATEPING=1 to the msiexec command line. i.e.

 

msiexec.exe /i GoogleChromeStandaloneEnterprise64.msi NOGOOGLEUPDATEPING=1 /qn

 

You could also get msiexec to log what happens during the installation process with this:

 

msiexec.exe /i GoogleChromeStandaloneEnterprise64.msi NOGOOGLEUPDATEPING=1 /l*v %TEMP%\GoogleChromeStandaloneEnterprise64.log /qn

so check please check the following pictures and tell what i am doing wrong:

thank you in advance for all your help

The msi file is inside the folder called Installers. When adding the application, point it at the folder called Installers rather than the folder above which is the one you have selected. Otherwise the command line is looking in the wrong place for the msi
