An unattended (silent) install requires that you first run an installation or updater in the installer wizard to capture the selected options, and then use the captured response file on other targets to 'playback' the responses into the installer without any user interaction.

To perform silent installations of Corticon Studio:

  1. Run the Studio installer with your preferred locations and options to capture a response file, using the syntax installer.exe -r file where installer is the preferred Studio installer, and file is the response file you will reuse. For example, PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x_STUDIO_WIN_64.exe -r C:\CorticonStudio64_7x.responses
  2. On other target machines, access the Studio 7.x installer executable and the response file.
  3. On those machines, run the installer using the syntax installer.exe -i silent -f file where installer is the Studio installer, and file is your response file. For example, PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x_STUDIO_WIN_64.exe -i silent -f C:\CorticonStudio64_7x.responses.

An unattended (silent) install requires that you first run an installation in the installer wizard (Windows or Linux) to capture the selected components and options, and then use the captured response file on targets on the same platform to 'playback' the responses into the installer without any user interaction.

Silent installations or updates for runtime components on Windows:

  1. Run the runtime component installer with your preferred locations and options to capture a response file, using the syntax installer.exe -r file where installer is the preferred installer, and file is the response file you will reuse. For example:

    PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x_SERVER_WIN_64.exe -r C:\CorticonServer_7x_WIN.responses

  2. Then, on other target Windows machines, access the Server 7.x installer executable and the response file.
  3. Run the installer using the syntax installer.exe -i silent -f file where installer is the Server installer, and file is your response file. For example:

    PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x_SERVER_WIN_64.exe -i silent -f C:\CorticonServer_7x_WIN.responses

Silent installations or updates for runtime components on Linux:

  1. Run the runtime component's Linux installer with your preferred locations and options to capture a response file, using the syntax installer.bin -r file where installer is the preferred Server installer, and file is the response file you will reuse. For example:

    PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x_SERVER_LNX_64.bin -r /usr/corticon/CorticonServer_7x_LNX.responses

  2. Then, on other target Linux machines, access the Server 7.x installer binary and the response file.
  3. Run the installer using the syntax installer.bin -i silent -f file where installer is the Server installer, and file is your response file. For example:

    PROGRESS_CORTICON_7.x_SERVER_LNX_64.bin -i silent -f /usr/corticon/CorticonServer_7x_LNX.responses
