Silent install of ActiveX Core & NDAP….

[hhn]

Hi all,

Anyone knows how to make a silent install of the Novell Developer ActiveX components needed to use SmartFields?

Any switches to the exefile I could use?

Just guessing, may be you can try the “/s” switch. I will recommend you to post a messsage to the Novell forum (http://forums.novell.com/category/developer.tpt).

Generally it should be enough to copy the needed ocx files to the Windows System32 directory and register them with

C:WindowsSystem32Regsvr32 /s C:WindowsSystem32FileX.ocx

Thank you for your suggestion, Stephan.

It should not be necessary to copy the component files (DLL/OCX) to the System32 directory. The installer’s default location for these files is a sub-directory of C:Novellndk.

In addition to the ActiveX binaries and documentation files, two batch files are installed: for registering (Regocx.bat) and unregistering (Unregocx.bat) the components. As far as I know, registration must be done manually (the installer will not do it). If no more information is available on the Novell forum, you may wish to consider creating your own ‘silent’ batch file installer, based on the files from a test installation.
