Hello,

i`m trying to install Teamviewer host via post-setup.

therefore i`ve added the Teamviewer.msi, but i`m not sure for the parameters.

Teamviewer manual states the follwing arguments:
msiexec.exe /i "path\of\TeamViewer_Host.msi>" /qn CUSTOMCONFIGID=<IHRE_KONFIGURATIONSID>

what do i need to enter for "path of teamviewer-host.msi"? where ist the install-file saved after its added to the image?

many thanks in advance!
 
Hello, i think this is a not only to teamviewer related question. Where are the install files stored, which are added in post-setup? what`s the path?
many thanks in advance!
 
Peda86 they will be inside the $OEM$ folder, there are usually 2 folders in there, files(your post install exe's) and scripts(the setupcomplete.cmd file).
 
Peda86 what about teamviewer portable? unzip the zip and it runs, im running it now. if the portable fits the bill place it inside the $OEM£ structure - here. protable is 32bit so it needs to go inside Program Files (x86)

$OEM$\$1\Program Files (x86)\teamviewer

the joy of portables. Kasual has a post here somewhere(i couldnt find it) about the $OEM$ folder structure.

So is it correct, that if i add the installer.msi in post-setup. it will be added to $OEM$ automatically by NTLite. I do not need to copy it manual to that folder?
 
Peda86 correct, ntlite will copy the file for you when you add it to the Post Ssetup page, you just need to add the correct silent switches.

Hello,

I`ve now managed to place the files correctly and start the post setup. but it doesn`t start the installer correctly.
I use this command, which works fine when i use it in windows using "run as admin":
Code:
msiexec /i "%WINDIR%\Setup\Files\TeamViewer_Host.msi" /qn SETTINGSFILE="%WINDIR%\Setup\Files\Teamviewer Host Einstellungen.tvopt" CUSTOMCONFIGID=xxxxx

But when Post setup starts only the cmd.exe and a window of msiexec.exe with its parameters is shown.

Where is my mistake?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi,

let's see how the post-setup page was used.
Meaning, don't add it as a command, but the MSI file directly, then Teamviewer Host Einstellungen.tvopt file, and under parameters of the MSI file set:
/qn SETTINGSFILE="%WINDIR%\Setup\Files\Teamviewer Host Einstellungen.tvopt" CUSTOMCONFIGID=xxxxx

If it was used already like that, please confirm under the %WINDIR%\Setup\Scritpts\setupcomplete.cmd what was entered by the tool.
Or send the content of that file to my private message, plus the preset used to my private message for debugging.

Thanks.
