Background info
I have configured my WPI install files so that they are copied to a directory called POSSIE\. (IE $OEM$\C\POSSIE)
I then call c:\POSSIE\WPI.CMD from my GUIRUNONCE

Problem:
I have the Force box checked for the programs that I wish to force, and if I click the exit icon I get a message that the forced progs will be installed, but then they are not installed. If I click install, all defaults install but if I deselect all then nothing installs. What am I missing?


BTW Thanks to all who are involved in this site, I only recently found it but I am absolutely amazed!
Jim

There is a setting in the options wizard page you must set to force install on exit.

I have the check box checked for the apps in the Config section and I have the box checked yes for the force on exit on the options page? I get the message that it is going to force but it does not.

we just tried updating to 3.51 (from 3.50) and the force install option still does not work. We have tried this on several machines.

We replaced the 3.5 config file with with 3.51 config file. Does this have any effect on what we're trying to accomplish?

any ideas/fixes?

Thank you.
