Installing ArcIMS silently
ArcIMS can be installed without a user interface by running the setup using Windows Installer command line parameters.
Requirements
Windows Installer version 3.1 must be installed and running on your machine prior to running the ArcIMS setup silently. The Windows installer version 3.1 can be installed from <ArcIMS Installation media>\instmsiw3.exe.
A silent installation does not check for system requirements; you must verify that you meet system requirements for the features you are installing. See Step 1: Verify system requirements for more information.
If you run setup.msi, you will need to install the Microsoft SQL Server Native Client separately from \support\SQlNative. The Microsoft SQL Server Native Client setup (sqlncli.msi) can be run silently using msiexec /i <location of Microsoft SQL Server Native Client setup>\sqlncli.msi /qb.
How to perform a typical installation of ArcIMS silently
Run this command from the command line:
msiexec /i <setup location>\setup.msi /qb
Additional command line parameters are available.
You can use InstallDir=<installation directory if you do not want to use the default of C:\Program Files\ArcGIS>
/qn can be used instead of /qb if you do not want any installation progress dialog boxes to be displayed.
For example:
msiexec /i \\machinename\arcims\setup.msi /qn InstallDir=C:\ArcIMS
How to perform a complete installation of ArcIMS silently
Run this command from the command line:
msiexec /i <setup location>\setup.msi /qb ADDLOCAL=ALL
Additional command line parameters are available.
Use InstallDir=<installation directory if you do not want to use the default of C:\Program Files\ArcGIS>
/qn can be used instead of /qb if you do not want any installation progress dialog boxes to be displayed.
For example:
msiexec /i \\machinename\arcims\setup.msi /qb ADDLOCAL=ALL InstallDir=C:\ArcIMS
How to perform a custom installation of ArcIMS silently
Run this command from the command line:
msiexec /i <setup location>\setup.msi /qb ADDLOCAL=<feature1>,<feature2>,....
