I searched high and low for specific information on installing AutoCAD Object Enablers (OE) from an.msi, which would permit IT to push installation silently, without user intervention. Sadly, bits of information were scattered all over the Internet, so hopefully this thread will bring it together for AUGI members. This is a step-by-step guide, with the caution that the silent install will need to be performed with admin privileges.
I presume this due to some registry keys being written to HKLM. Alcatel One Touch Driver Windows 7. If you find otherwise, please let us know.
The first step is to extract the.msi file from the downloaded.exe file. It is crucial to get the correct.msi file for the application to which you will add the OE. Here is how you accomplish the task: • Start the.exe application for the OE. • Proceed thru the dialogs, selecting the correct target application in the setup dialog. • Start the install, but do NOT close the setup dialog when the install is complete. Bbc Sound Effect Library there.
• Use Windows Explorer to browse to%Temp% (you may type that in Explorer's address bar). Bricxcc Sample Programs on this page. • Copy the.msi file that you find there to a network location.
The filename will start with a temporary filename but end with a full description. For example, a setup of AutoCAD Architectural 2009 OE for DWG TrueView 2009 created this.msi file: 6a.tmp_DWG_TrueView_2009_-_English_(United_States).msi. • Do NOT rename the file. The.msi file created during the initial install stores its original filename.
Now you have a valid.msi file to use for the silent install. Below is a sample that presumes the.msi file is located in H: Test, where the /i command switch finds the file and does the install. Code: msiexec /norestart /passive /l*v '%temp% OE Install.log' /i 'H: Test 6a.tmp_DWG_TrueView_2009_-_English_(United_States).msi'Other command switches are: /norestart, make sure a reboot isn't forced (not an issue with this OE, but it is habit).
/passive, display a progress bar. You could use /qb! Instead to not display a progress bar. /l*v, write a verbose log to the location specified. Note that I use the%temp% parameter to make sure the log file goes to the Temp folder, wherever it may be located. Robert, thank you for posting this info.
I have recently tried this for the first time, and the installs appeared to go OK, however I have been noticing now in AutoCAD that when a file that needs an OE is opened, I get a line similar to the following for pretty much every object it's trying to enable, and when the file is fully loaded, it appears that the objects are all proxies: c: enabler aeccland.dbx cannot find a dll or other file that it needs. I am using AutoCAD 2011 32-bit, and I noticed 64-bit installs are ending up the same way. I tried to run the reinstall through the Add/Remove programs in the control panel for the object enabler(s), but it has made no difference. Any suggestions? Robert, thank you for posting this info.

Thank you.I'm having the exactly same issue here now 12 months later.
Did you come up with a solution to this issue? Hi Patrick, I do not remember what this issue was exactly, but there seemed to have been something wrong with the way the OEs were installed. I wrote up a batch file to remove the OEs, then reinstall, and this fixed things for me.
- OK after looking through the script again, it looks like when they were installed with the MSI, something went wrong, so I removed all the installs and reinstalled with the EXE to get things working. I'm not a proffessional programer by any means, so please review this and adjust as necessary if you want to try it, I'm not taking any responsibility for this. When I installed the OEs the first time I had a.txt fiel written in the C root to indicate things were done, these.txt files are what this batch uses to see if the enablers previously existed, you may have to find some other kind of reference that the OE is installed.
