2. flash player installation
Hi Bill,
As per your last suggestion i visit the appdeploy site and gone through all the solutions but i am not able get success.
I tried with the install command "??SOURCE??" /S but what i am facing islog showing deploy job is successful and i checked the target server and found that flash is not installed .
one of my friend deployed the flash with the same command and he is successful.
My question to you is if log showing deploy is successfull then how can this happen that software is not installed. Could you please guide me ?

1 of 1 people found this helpfulIt just means that the bldeploy job exited with a 0 exit code. Have you, personally, verified that you can install the application with that command? Also, are you uploading just the installer? Or the folder containing the installer. If you are uploading the folder, and not only the installer, then your command would be something like:
??SOURCE??/install_flash_player_10_active_x.exe /silent
Where ??SOURCE?? is the folder you uploaded that contains the installer.

Hi Adam,
I have only the setup file in the depot not the folder containing the setup file.
install command: "??SOURCE??" /S
above command is working fine for the deployment but uninstalling is the issue i am facing now.

Are you able to successfully manually uninstall it via command line? (without BSA)

c:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash>FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.exe /s /x

So, you are saying that if you do:
cd c:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash
FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.exe /s /x
Manually via the command line, that works?
If so, then do the same thing in your uninstall command in BSA.

after executing this command it is not silently uninstalling the flash player rather it is asking to click on uninstall button

Is this the same behavior you see when you do it from the command line?

you need to figure out how to get the flash player (or any other appliation) to install and uninstall silently, outside of bladelogic. when you run it you should get no gui and no prompts or anything that would require user interaction.
then you should add it to bladelogic. as mentioned before there are various websites that provide the proper install and uninstall switches for applications - you should research there. if there are forums on those sites it may be helpful to post there as the people there probably have more experience w/ the particular application than here.

Thanks to all. I got success in deploying the flash.
I take a diiferent setup for flash and used the below command. probably the pervious setup is corrupted or need some different switches for the installation.
"??SOURCE??" /S

Here you will find some interesting and important information.
But I am also of the opinion that your problems have actually nothing to do with BladeLogic

Thanks Dinoel.
I got success in silently installing and uninstalling by trying various switches given in this site.
i know there is no problem in the bladelogic. As different application has various switches for their installation and uninstallation procedure, i need to figure it out in the command line and then i need to add it to bladelogic, "as Bill mentioned above"

Dear Bill,
Thanks a lot. I got success by tring it in command line first and then added it to the Bladelogic as per your suggestion.
Thanks for your guidelines.
