  • Hi Jagadeish,
    Thanks! the silent install works. but for some reason it doesn't get the deployment file. When the installation is finished, it asks for a serial, which is in the deployment file.

    Do you have any experience with that?

    thanks,

Make a .MSI file of the installation file (Set-up.exe) with this tool:
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/creativesuite/AAMEE/win32/ApplicationManagerEnterprise_1_all.exe

Then create a package in SCCM of that .msi file. Works great! In this .msi file you can enter your serial key. So no need for any command lines.

thanks,
Silvester

  • Tried the Enterprise application manager, but the generated MSI won't install, throwing error code 1708/1603 at me.
    Some more digging in %APPDATA%\Local\Temp shows a file "PDApp.LOG" stating

    From my understanding I don't need a provisioning tool, the Enterprise application manager should be sufficient.
