If you need MSI kits please follow the instructions below.
Instructions
Below are the instructions:
- Navigate to <Drive>:\Nintex\Support Tools\MSI Wrapper.
- Run pgplwiz.exe. An application window will open.
- Click the "Browse" button and select the respective Robot or Studio Executable.
- In the "Command Line Parameters," set the respective config parameters, that are valid for the customer's server like: Main Server Name, Http/NetTcp/HTTPS/Nginx ports, robot/assistant mode, etc.
- Example: LeoServer=myappServer.com /s ALLUSERS=TRUE NetComPort=8082.
- Note, for these parameters apply the same rules as for regular cmd parameters.
- More parameters can be found in additional information section below.
- For "Group Policy Display Name" set Nintex Robot/Studio.
- Once the parameters are set, click "Save As" and select the name and location of the Output MSI files.
- Click "OK" and wait for the file to be generated.
Another option, instead of using the Installer's MSI wrapper, is to download Orca and use to edit the MSI.
