Problem to deploy AutoCAD ADT 2009

Hi everybody,
I'm actually trying PDQ Deploy (Free mode) into my company.
I want to deploy AutoCAD Architectural Desktop 2009 in a computer. So, I configure my package with this success codes : 0,259,1641,3010.
When I deployed my package to a computer, the installation was finished with successful in my computer but PDQ Deploy stay in "Running" status. (I laught the software and it start succesfully without errors).

Can you gives me the good "Successful codes" to having a "Successful" status in PDQ Deploy?

Thanks.

Hi, if the deployment was a success (meaning the application was installed on the target) but the Deployment Status is Running this usually means that some type of a Completion window is trying to be displayed. Until that window is cleared no return code (successful or otherwise) will be returned to PDQ Deploy. The problem is any window is hidden and therefore cannot be acknowledged.

Try running the installation on a target machine but still use the full command that PDQ Deploy is running. Make sure to pass the silent parameters on this installation. Did any windows pop up at the end of the install? If so, this is what is holding up the completion of the deployment. There is probably a way to not display this message.

What parameters are you passing to setup.exe?

Hi,

I don't have a message or a popup during the installation in my computer (target) because I'm using a .exe created with AutoCAD installer (image software).

This is the parameters I use to deploy my software (same problems with AutoCAD MAP & ADT 2009, maybe because I use the same parameters) :

Success Code : 0,259
Parameters : \\myServerName\folders\AdminImage\
Command Line : "\\myServerName\folders\setup.exe" /I \\myServerName\folders\ZZ_IMAGE_ADT2009.ini

I remember in the past, I tried this deployment solution and the result with ADT was succesful without errors in my PDQ Deploy but I don't remember if this parameters are equals. (today, if I wait 1 hour, the software return "Time out". If I decreases the value, I've the same problem too).

Thanks you.

I wrote a mistake in my last comment about the parameter :

Success Code : 0,259
Parameters : \\myServerName\folders\ZZ_IMAGE_ADT2009.ini
Command line : \\myServerName\folders\setup.exe /I \\myServerName\Folders\ZZ_IMAGE_ADT2009.ini

I tried today to add two new success code : 0,1641,3010,259" and the status is successful but the installation is running in my computer target.. It's another problem ! But if I wait 10 minutes, the installation is terminated with succes on the target.

But the problem, I want to PDQ Deploy write "Sucessful" when the installation is terminated !

(Sorry for my spelling mistakes but I'm french and I didn't speak french two years ago) !
