Hi,

Currently I'm installing the CommunicationGateway from a dmupgrade package, be defining the following on the UpdateContext.txt file:

Execute 60 DataMiner_CommunicationGateway_3.2.0.31332.msi

Is there a way to execute this silently, without prompting the wizard UI?

Hi Tiago,

A possible option is to create a batch file that executes msiexec. This tool allows you to execute installations from MSI files silently.

msiexec.exe /i "C:\Path\file.msi" /q

Hope it helps.

Our team is doing something similar in an E2E test and we are using msiexec to do so. There is the /quiet flag that specifies quiet mode which should result in no UI during the installation process.
