Autodesk Simulation Moldflow Adviser

[#1]

I have been deploying MFC 2010 and 2011 in the past without problems, but MoldFlow Communicator 2012 SP1 fails.

I am using the following command line:

amcpc.exe /SP- /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOG /NORESTART

 The log file contains the following:

 I think this is due to checking for 3Dconnexion.

A manual installation just works fine, but I won't run arond in the company and install ~50 systems manually.

Thanks in advance for any pointers,

Stefan

Hello Stefan

I spoke with one of the developers and got the follwing information. Hopefully this will work, if not their is a new release of 2013 communicator  that shoudl be avalable for download soon.

comment:

Since 2012, we had have added Eula agreement, which is mandatory. So if the install command line is same as cited previously, but having for example

/eulalang=”enu” SP- /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOG /NORESTART
will make the jobJ

Hello Derek,

Adding the switch /eulalang="enu" solved the problem, thanks for the hint.

Where can I find information about the commandline switches for the installer, which are not standard Inno Setup switches?

Thanks for the fast solution.
