did you create an administrative install? - SMal.tmcc 10 years ago
no...how to create it? and whats the purpose of creating admin install? - swap20june 10 years ago
i used this command line to install setup.exe /w /t /qb /c ACADLT: INSTALLDIR="%APPDIR%" InstallLevel=5 ALLUSERS=1 ADSK_DESKTOPSHORTCUT_1=0 and
to uninstall
setup.exe /P {5783F2D7-9009-0409-0002-0060B0CE6BBA} /M ACADLT /language en-US
but install takes 2-3 hrs and uninstall never ends. in sccm 2007 the message says "performing integrity check on download content" - swap20june 10 years ago
created admin image but when i double click it does not run....or do anything - swap20june 10 years ago
Thanks All. Finally this command line worked..huushh....
msiexec /q /x {Guid} for silent uninstallation.
thanks again for comments. - swap20june 10 years ago
it seems sccm 2007 does not support for interactive uninstallations. so what could be solution for it? because i have some of the applications which gives prompts like yes/no and user has to click on it. so if sccm 2007 does not support it,then how it could be unstalled either interactive way or silent way?
thanks - swap20june 10 years ago
Actually I am wrong. it doesnot work through sccm still. i dont know whats happening. - swap20june 10 years ago

Because SCCM runs as a service and runs in a different session to the user. Messages generated in a system session cannot be viewed in a user session as interaction with desktop is no longer supported by default in Windows 7, as it was in earlier operating systems, when system and user ran in the same session.

Therefore any install or uninstall processes run via SCCM ***must be*** entirely silent as they cannot interact with the user.

Looks as if you may have to call the individual uninstall commands for the AutoCAD components - http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/Installation-Licensing/Silent-Uninstall-of-AutoCAD-2011-via-SCCM/td-p/2685667

Or use a script similar to this one http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/2011-How-to-perform-an-automated-uninstallation-of-AutoCAD.html

Here is the Autodesk link detailing how to configure the deployment of AutoCAD 2011 for SCCM - which won't be too dissimilar to to 2011 LT.

http://docs.autodesk.com/ACD/2011/ENU/filesInstall/WS1a9193826455f5ff-75c1f7c3124f51ccbd1-6009.htm

Follow the steps on the left hand menu.

Hope that helps,

hi i still have a question why to create ADMIN IMAGE? if i can install auto cad with command line
setup.exe /w /t /qb /c ACADLT: INSTALLDIR="%APPDIR%" InstallLevel=5 ALLUSERS=1 ADSK_DESKTOPSHORTCUT_1=0
problem is only with uninstallation which never finishes with sccm 2007. - swap20june 10 years ago
- Because they tell you to - that is their supported method and your method isn't working for you.
  
  Note the Directx 9.0c comment about having to install manually?! - dunnpy 10 years ago
so is there a problem with sccm or package it self? i dont think so package has it because i am able to install and uninstall fine manually with the script.... - swap20june 10 years ago
- Neither - both work within their limitations. However, to make both work together, you need to follow the vendor instructions. - EdT 10 years ago
  - hi i am using setup.exe /P {5783F2D7-9009-0409-0002-0060B0CE6BBA} /M ACADLT /language en-US command line to uninstall. manually when i run it gives an option to uninstall and then user has to click next,next etc. but thr sccm 2007 this promt never comes. any body knows why its like that?
    
    thanks again. appreciate responses. - swap20june 10 years ago
