Install Gantt Project on a network - easy one
burgemaster replied to 3s-gtech's topic in How do you do....it?
You may want to add these 2 lines if you are rolling it out bit by bit, otherwise it will keep trying to install every startup: REM --- install GanttProject silently if exist "C:\Program Files\GanttProject" goto :eof ELSE if exist "C:\Program Files (x86)\GanttProject" goto :eof ELSE @echo off \\servername\installfolder$\ganttproject-2.0.10.exe /S -
Redirected Startmenu - Missing random folders?? Cached copy??
burgemaster replied to burgemaster's topic in Windows 7
Just disabled the caching on the share, thanks for this, will let you know how we get on Just checked this logs, the error that that member got when she logged in was: "Folder redirection policy application has been delayed until the next logon because the group policy logon optimization is in effect." Googling this apparently this is by design and the user should log off and back on. This doesnt work and the problem also follows them around to all their windows 7 PCs... -
Hi, We have roaming profiles and a redirected startmenu, nice and simple. \\server\staffstartmenus\startmenu Works perfectly for XP. If you make a change to the start menu share it will automatically change the menu on the PC. With Windows 7 we seem to be having very strange problems? Firstly sometimes when I add a link to the share it doesnt appear on the windows 7 PCs? Or even worse, some staff report that they have startmneus with plenty of folders missing? This can be rectified by deleting their local and server profile. It seems to be saving a cached copy in their profile? Can anyone please help?

Hi Does anyone please have a list of all the samples in fruityloops that contain swearing? I have been sifting through and removed as many as I can, but teachers are still reporting that some samples contain swearing. Of course they then forget the name of that sample..... I wondered if im not alone on this and anyone had a complete list to remove ? Thanks in advance

We binned uniservity and coded a wordpress syle VLE.

I'm sure i saw a small program, it would encrypt the admin password and create an EXE that would load another EXE as admin. EDIT: this wasn't it, but looks similar

Thanks, But I ran the installer EXE and got a "Win NT 6.0 Service Pack 2" required popup??? Or are you saying that I can use the Sib 7 sound library with 6.2 ?
-
Thanks for that.... I have just tested in our music room and found out that Sib 7 is windows 7 minimum !! lol oh well, back to 6.2 Thanks
-
Yeah its a network key we purchased, but could possibly be a dual key? As when I open Sib, it asks for the key to be entered and then asks whether this is standalone or network install. Ive spent enough time on this now lol, I will enter the key manually, ive only got 17 machines in that room so its not too bad! Thanks for all the help. Cheers Tim

Just testing with the new installer on my machine... Using a batch script with: \\server\msi_installs\Sibelius_7\Installer\Sibelius702b8.exe /SERIAL=SCMM 123 456 789 101112 LSINFO=MUSICPC-01:7314 /SILENT or \\server\msi_installs\Sibelius_7\Installer\Sibelius702b8.exe /SERIAL=SCMM123456789101112 LSINFO=MUSICPC-01:7314 /SILENT doesn't seem to populate the reg key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Avid\Sibelius 7\SerialNumber] Could I please ask what format you entered your key please? Thanks in advance
-
I doubt you can but do you know if you can use the command switches with this one large EXE ?
-
I've noticed on the install disk there is a "InstallerData" folder containing various samples and patches. I might try and copy all the samples and patches from the "installerdir" on the 3 disks to this one folder and see if they get installed. Thanks
-
Thanks Gareth, Do you know whether this also installed the 3 x DVD9 Content disks also?? Just found this guide for setup switches How install Sibelius silently on Windows

We purchased and upgrade to v6 and then guess what v7 came out !!!!! Our music teacher said this also happened at her last school from V5->V6 Well, anyhow we purchased through Ramesys and after a long battle they managed to get Avid to upgrade our key. We had to pay an extra 3.40 per license and also purchase a media pack. Good luck!
-
Hi mate, Can I ask how you installed Sib 7 please? We have a pack of 4 x DVD9`s arrive! I really dont want to manually install on each PC. Thanks in advance

burgemaster commented on TheScarfedOne's blog entry in TheScarfedOne's Blog
Could an additional task be added previous to the shutdown to display a warning / cancel message? -

Thanks both, I have suggestions.google.co.uk and .com blocked and it doesnt help. we also dont have google as a homepage, its browsed to by choice. This appears in the smoothwall web logs when i start to type, but I cant block this as then searching doesnt work http://clients1.google.co.uk/complete/search?client=ser Any other suggestions please?
-
Hi, Does anyone please know if google can be retricted to not show the most common searches when a student starts to type.?? For example, if you open google and start to type: "is it normal", you will get the top google searches starting with that phrase. We use smoothwall and safesearch is already enabled.? Is there some other way any other school has found? Thanks in advance
