Topic

When running the Nintex workflow installer there is the option to extract the files so that Nintex can be installed manually.
Scripts can be created to automate the deployment of solutions.

After deployment the License needs to be imported, databases created and paths configured, web application features activated, site collection features activated, site collection features activated etc.
All this is usually done manually but it can also be automated using the NWAdmin tool.

 

Instructions

Using the NWAdmin tool with the operation NWAdmin.exe -o ConfigureSettings -file pathToXMLFile a pre-configured XML file can be used to automate all the actions required after installation.
A sample of the what is required in the XML file can be found in the install directory when the installer is extracted and its called NintexWorkflowSetup.xsd.
Examples of how to configure the XML file can be found in the NWAdmin tool documentation under the ConfigureSettings operation.
