Deploying from a Downloaded Executable File
To call a silent installation directly from CreoView_64.exe, which is located under the download directory of the installation media, add the /v argument to the program call immediately followed by all the parameters for the underlying MSI package. The command is prefixed with start /w to force one process to finish before another one is started. This is useful for scripting installations.
The following examples illustrate three different scenarios:
Example 1
Includes the feature licvar in the metafeature “ALL”. Therefore, the property LICENSESERVER is sufficient.
start /w CreoView_64.exe /vADDLOCAL="ALL"
LICENSESERVER=”7788@licsrv.example.com” /qn
LICENSESERVER=”7788@licsrv.example.com” /qn
Example 2
Controls the installation of some features, the STEP ImportFilter is excluded, and the Russian language is forced:
start /w CreoView_64.exe /v
ADDLOCAL="main,dwg,plugin_acrobat,msvcrt8,en,ru,doc,docru,
pvimport,pvifiges,pvifstl,pvifgbf,pvifvrml,pvifdgn,
pviffbx,pvifinvdirect,pvifobj,pvifsedirect" /qb
ADDLOCAL="main,dwg,plugin_acrobat,msvcrt8,en,ru,doc,docru,
pvimport,pvifiges,pvifstl,pvifgbf,pvifvrml,pvifdgn,
pviffbx,pvifinvdirect,pvifobj,pvifsedirect" /qb
Example 3
Controls the installation of some features and uses “pvimportall” to deploy “all import filters” without a detailed list.
start /w CreoView_64.exe /v
ADDLOCAL="main,dwg,pvocxusr,plugin_acrobat,msvcrt8,
en,ru,doc,docru,demo,pvimportall"
ALLIMPORTFILTERS="1"/qb
ADDLOCAL="main,dwg,pvocxusr,plugin_acrobat,msvcrt8,
en,ru,doc,docru,demo,pvimportall"
ALLIMPORTFILTERS="1"/qb
 |
To uninstall or upgrade, if you used the ALLIMPORTFILTERS=1 property alongside the pvimportall feature to install the product, you must include ALLIMPORTFILTERS=1 as an argument in the msiexec.exe command line.
