Answered deploy new client 11.2 via msi

[pivert]

Does anyone know how to put the oe11.2 client in a .msi so we can use System Center to deploy it to the clients? I've read different articles to do it via silent install but for some strange reason SCCM refuses to install it. I've put everything in a bat-file with the silent install params and this works fine if done interactively.

I've checked with Progress but they have no idea on how to do this too (and if I pay for a consultant, they will happily look at the problem). All suggestions are welcome!

Does it have to be 11.2? At least get the service pack bundled with it. But preferably look to go to 11.3 or later. 11.2 is a pretty bad release
As for your question, it seems to come up a bit in various guises on https://community.progress.com/?Redirected=true so you may be better off asking over there.

Thanks for the tips and I'll talk to our software provider to go to 11.3 or later. I've posted it on the deployment forum.
