Advanced Installation
Silent Install
The EXE install includes the following command line arguments:
Silent "<setup.exe> /s"
Log "<setup.exe> /l=<logfile.ext>"
Administrative Install
Global Mapper is also available as an MSI File. This file is for administrative installation of Global Mapper for deployment across systems. This installer uses MSIExec, and the available options can be found here. Not all of these options are included. It does not support administrative installs. An example of a quiet install with no user interface would be:
"msiexec -i GlobalMapper.msi /qn"
Network License Connection
Once a machine has been connected to a network license, the path to the license server is stored in a *.lic file in C:\ProgramData\GlobalMapper\ . Make sure a borrow is not specified in the file (it can be read with a plain text editor like Notepad).
This file can be copied to the same path on all end user machines to automatically connect to the network license.
