RightFax Installation - Parameters field too short

Avatar
Shawn Doné

Hello, I'm trying to install a piece of software called Rightfax 16.2SR4 and after reviewing the vendors installation sheet, they provide some nice documentation on how to remotely deploy it and do it silently using a command similar to below, I would just insert my server name.

msiexec.exe /i "RightFax Product Suite - Clientx64.msi" /qn REBOOT=ReallySuppress RUNBYRIGHTFAXSETUP=2 CONFIGUREFAXCTRL=1 CONFIGUREFAXUTIL=1 ADDLOCAL="FaxUtil,FaxCtrl" dkdkdk NETID=2 INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\RightFax" RFSERVERNAME="PPG-MGT"

I'm finding when I point to my install file and then check the box to put in a "Custom" command line, when I go to paste it in, the field appears to only allow so much and gets cut off after "CONFIGUREFAXUTIL=1". I try to add other text behind that and it will not allow it. How does a guy push out longer command with many parameters like the vendor is suggesting I use to silently install their product?

Thanks, Shawn

    I recommend putting just the following in the Parameters field:

    REBOOT=ReallySuppress RUNBYRIGHTFAXSETUP=2 CONFIGUREFAXCTRL=1 CONFIGUREFAXUTIL=1 ADDLOCAL="FaxUtil,FaxCtrl" dkdkdk NETID=2 INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\RightFax" RFSERVERNAME="PPG-MGT"

    Yes, thanks. By not using the custom and then using the "Install File" path and "Parameters" fields separately I was able to fit it all in. Appreciate it.
