Hello,

 

If I do a silent (command-line) installation of FME would it be possible to set the shared resource folder as well? I don't see a flag for it in the documentation. https://krogerfeedback.nl https://talktosonic.onl https://talktowendys.vip https://whataburgersurvey.onl

Same question applies to some of the other FME options (database connections file, network proxy settings). If those could be set during a silent install it would make it easier for IT staff to run them more frequently.

 

thanks

have a post install script that updates these two registry keys:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Safe Software Inc.\Feature Manipulation Engine]
"Shared Resource Directory"="\\\\server\\folder\\folder\\Shared_Resources"
 
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Safe Software Inc.\Feature Manipulation Engine\Settings]
"Named Connection Directory"="\\\\server\\folder\\folder\\Shared_Resources\\Connections"

There is also some additional information on command line options for the msi installer here: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_Desktop_Admin_Guide/FMEInstallation/Install_FME_Windows_Command_Prompt.htm
