OPI 2.2.0 mass deployment: Best practice

Hi all

Got Sugar 7.7.1.0 Ent and running Outlook 2016 (Office 365):

Installed the OPI 2.2.0 already using the setup.exe and all working fine. Uninstall it.

Try to install the OPI 2.2.0 using the MSI but get an error:

So I read the Guide and it says:

The setup.exe file will install two of the necessary libraries if needed. Please note that running data.package.msi will not install the Outlook plug-in.

We usually use SCCM or LANDesk to deploy software to workstations. So my question is: How are you guys mass deploying the OPI 2.2.0?

What is the best practice here?

As always - thanks,

KGM

  • In case there are others wondering the same, I´m posting the info I managed to obtain    I´m still missing info about un-install quietly with the option to keep current settings (since OPI 2.2.0 requires an uninstall before installation). I´ll post that here as well if I find. Would be great if someone else knows that part and is willing to share...

    Silent install OPI Instructions

    Command to run silent install of OPI:

    x64 platform"msiexec /i data.package.msi /quiet OFFICE_BITNESS=x64 ALLUSERS=1"

    x86 platform"msiexec /i data.package.msi /quiet OFFICE_BITNESS=x86 ALLUSERS=1"

    It's also possible to extract all files from vstor40_x64.exe (vstor40_x86.exe for x86 platform) and use extracted vstor40_x64.msi to mass deploy latest version of VSTO runtime.

    Command line for VSTO install: "msiexec /i vstor40_x64.msi /quiet"
