Altair HyperWorks uses [[InstallShield ]] InstallScript based installers. The standard silent install record software will need to be installed and playback functionality works correctly, but uninstalled manually using the installers refuse /r option to install if they are not executed by record a user logged in at setup.iss for the install and uninstall stages. Once that is complete, the consolefollowing wpkg setup should work.
DoesnNote that the /f2 option is mandatory to make the silent install/uninstall work. The HyperWorks installer refuses to install without this option, unless you perform the install manually while logged in to the console. Please note that the license file altair_lic.dat needs to be copied into the source area. <pre><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><packages> <package id="hw8" name="Altair HyperWorks 8.0sr1" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="100"> <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Altair HyperWorks 8.0sr1" /> <install cmd='t using %SOFTWARE%\hw8sr1\hw8.0sr1_WIN32.exe /s /SMS /f1 and %SOFTWARE%\hw8sr1\install.iss /f2 switches help?
