Hi There,
Has anyone tried to install RSAP Design Spreadsheets / Spreadsheet Calculator silently via SMS or as a package??? I need some advice on how to do this if possible.

Duncan
Solved! Go to Solution.
Solved by Rafal.Gaweda. Go to Solution.
It is, by installshield script.
I will try to prepare procedure and post it here.
I have updated old document. Screen Shots (paths \ filenames) are outdated but the rest should work.
PS
Of course you can use batch file \ command to run installation:
SpreadsheetCalculator2013_Content.exe -s -f2c:\SC.log (log file SC.log will be created on each computer on c: root folder)
Many thanks for providing this, however, i'm stuggling to get this to work i think... Are you able to offer any further advice?
I have managed to create a setup.iss file located in the Windows folder by using the -r (switch) which i have copied into a folder on our shared network drive which uses dfs for replication along with the spreadsheetcalculator2013_content.exe
Then I created an ipf file with the following information...
item: Remark
Text=---Robot Structural Analysis Pro Design Spreadsheets for Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis 2013---
end
item: Execute Program
Pathname=Extensions\spreadsheetcalculator2013_content.exe
Command Line=/s
Default Directory=\\dfs\KITS\ADesk\Robot Structural Analysis Pro 2013 X64
Flags=00000010
end
Extensions is the folder with the exe and the iss in.
I then compiled the ipf too an exe file and ran the file which seems to do something, however if i check the Control Panel, it doesnt state that the Design Spreadsheets are installed...
I've tried the shortcut as suggested but it didnt do as expected... am i pathing to the wrong thing?
I did have success with the Log file as suggested but it gave me very little information...
[InstallShield Silent]
Version=v7.00
File=Log File
[ResponseResult]
ResultCode=-5
Regards,
1. Check if SC is working as it should - load any sheet from library.
2. Run installation (-r) manually \ by batch
3. Let me know the results. If failed I need to check this installation on my side.
When i load the Spreadsheet Calculator i just get a blank sheet with no options to select a template...
Installing manually, the Design Spreadsheet works fine and i get a pop up asking which template i want, i just need a way to install this working method silently via SMS.
Would you mind checking from your side and confirming the steps etc.

Duncan
Hi Rafal,
I was wondering if there is an update to this or can i presume that it is not possible to install this silently? i did receive an email from Autodesk asking if this had been resolved of which i said no, but that was the last i heard anything...
Thanks in advance
I am working on it. No final conlusion yet.
Sorry for delay.
It seems my fault, I have forgotten that instalation should be "unpacked installation".
use this package http://www.4shared.com/zip/TFRANA_3/SC2013_Content.html
unpack all files to one folder then use setup.exe to record then run installation
