Runtime_Installer_Silent

The DataFlex Reports Runtime installer can be used in a silent mode by using the following command line options.

  • /exenoui /qn switches: These two switches need to be added first in the exact sequence to ensure a silent installation will be executed.
  • APPDIR property: Set the default location for the Application Directory. If this property is not set, the default Program Files path will be chosen.
    Example: APPDIR="C:\Program Files\DataFlex Reports Runtime v26.0 64bit"
  • LANGUAGE property: Set the default DF_Collate.cfg language. If this property is not set, the default English DF_Collate.cfg will be installed.
    Example: LANGUAGE=NL or LANGUAGE=DE

The following languages can be chosen from:

Code Name
CZ Czech
DK Danish
DE German
EN English
ES Spanish
FR French
HU Hungarian
IT Italian
NL Dutch
NO Norwegian
PL Polish
PT Portuguese
RU Russian
SV Swedish
  • OVERWRITE property: Set to 1 to overwrite any existing files in the Application Directory. If this property is not set, any existing file will be renamed instead of overwritten.
    Example: OVERWRITE=1
  • DRDBPATH property: Set the path to your own version of dr.db to be copied to the Application Directory. If this property is not set, the default dr.db will be installed.
    Example: DRDBPATH="C:\ProgramData\Data Access Worldwide\DataFlex Reports\26.0\Data\dr.db"
