From WPKG | Open Source Software Deployment and Distribution
Jump to: navigation, search

The .msi options are taken from the "Installation Guide for Symantec(TM) Endpoint Protection and Symantec Network Access Control".

The %SOFTWARE%\symantec folder contains all files from the SEP folder.

<package id="symantec"
  name="Symantec Endpoint Protection client"
  revision="11"
  reboot="false"
  priority="1">
  <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Symantec Endpoint Protection" />
  <install cmd='msiexec.exe /i "%SOFTWARE%\symantec\Symantec Antivirus.msi" ADDLOCAL=Core,SAVMain,PTPMain,COHMain,ITPMain REBOOT=ReallySuppress /qn /l*v %TEMP%\symantec.log' />
  <remove cmd='msiexec.exe /I{2EFCC193-D915-4CCB-9201-31773A27BC06} /qn' />
</package>

I use this

<package id="symantec"
  name="Symantec Endpoint Protection client"
  revision="12"
  reboot="false"
  priority="1">
  <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Symantec Endpoint Protection" />
  <install cmd='msiexec.exe /i "%SOFTWARE%\AntivirusProgram\Symantec_Endpoint_Protection_12.1_Win32-bit_Client_EN\sep.msi" REBOOT=ReallySuppress /qn /l*v %TEMP%\symantec.log' architecture="x86"/>
