XMap 7 Network and Silent Installs
**Notice** If you create a transform using InstallShield AdminStudio or any of the InstallShield
development products, you must access the property manager table and delete the
ISSETUPFILESCOMPLETED property. Internal testing has shown that leaving this property in place can
delete core operating system files (boot.ini, etc) when the setup is executed from a batch file.
Failure to do this will result in a machine that will not reboot. InstallShield has confirmed this as an issue
and recommended the above work around.
**Notice** When running command line installations on Windows Vista or newer, it is important to run
the command as an Administrator. This can be done in one of two ways.
Click Start on the task bar and type CMD in the search box. Right-click CMD.exe and click Run as
Administrator. Enter the installation command similar to the ones below and execute the command.
Create a batch file with the installation command line. Right-click the batch file in the file explorer and
click Run as Administrator.
How to Use Properties
Properties provide a way to pass information to the installation and to control some aspects of the
installation. A list of properties can be found in the Property List For XMap 7
Properties can be set by two different methods:
The property name on the command line followed by =<value>;
for example, LICENSE_NUMBER=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX.
In the property table of a transform; you can then apply the transform to the installation. See the example
for applying a transform.
