Create an INF file
(This file will store all the wizard settings that you configure when running the manual setup for a Client Machine)
- Download the GLOBODOX setup on the Client machine, please don't run the setup yet. The name of GLOBODOX setup should be gdxsetup.exe (We save the setup to C:\Temp folder).
- Open Command Prompt in windows and in the Command Line window, type the command..."C:\Temp\gdxsetup.exe" /saveinf="C:\Temp\install.inf" and press enter. The setup wizard will be launched.
- Please make sure to select the client installation option and to specify the Server URL during the Client installation. After the installation completes, please uncheck the option 'Launch Globodox Application' before clicking on the finish button. (This ensures that all the steps will be remembered in the 'INF' file)
NOTE: To find your server URL, login into GLOBODOX on the server machine>>Click the GLOBODOX icon on the top left and click on 'About Globodox' button.
- Done. The INF file has been created.
Step 2:
GLOBODOX silent/very silent installation on Client machine
- Download the recently created 'INF' file on the client machine and save it in the 'C:\Temp' folder.(Please note, the GLOBODOX setup should also be in the same folder and the name of GLOBODOX setup should be gdxsetup.exe)
- Open Command Prompt in windows and in the Command Line window, type and run the below command...
"C:\Temp\gdxsetup.exe" /loadinf="C:\Temp\install.inf" /silent (In this case the setup will automatically run with the progress being shown)
OR
"C:\Temp\gdxsetup.exe" /loadinf="C:\Temp\install.inf" /verysilent (In this case the progress in the setup wizard will not be shown)
- GLOBODOX Silent/Very Silent installation should start on the Client machine.
NOTE: In case you want to change the location of the installation directory, all you need to do is open the INF file in Notepad and edit the parameter Dir to the desired location.
