Command Line Options for Silent Install

As of CMS 10.2+, the CMS site setup executable supports full installation/upgrade of a CMS via administrative command line or PowerShell.

Powershell examples include:

  • Example PowerShell to upgrade an existing CMS site virtual directory, which assumes you are in the directory where the wizard executable is located: 
    Start-Process ".\Ingeniux_CMS_Site_Wizard.exe" -ArgumentList "upgrade --iis-path ""Default Web Site/myCMS"" --name myCMS"
  • Example PowerShell for a new site setup via export, which assumes you are in the directory where the wizard executable is located: 
    Start-Process .\Ingeniux_CMS_Site_Wizard.exe -ArgumentList "setup -e C:\_tempStuff\CM
S_Export_xxxxxx_331_03_01_2018_18_36_56.zip -b 4096 -d c:\igxsites\cms102\xxxxxxxx -u xxxxx -p xxxxxxxx -n xxxxxx
2b8 --host-name xxxxxx"

Administrators can also install the product via command line by using a customized installation executable.

To install the product via a command-line interface (CLI) , view the expected parameters by running Setup.exe --help:

Setup.exe --help

  -c, --company Required. Company Name.

  -l, --license Required. License.

  -d, --directory Required. Install Directory.

  --help             Display this help screen.

  --version          Display version information.

Press ENTER to continue.

Example PowerShell for installing the product, which assumes you are in the directory where the CLI executable is located:

Start-Process .\Setup.exe -ArgumentList "-c Ingeniux -l XXXXXX-000000-XXXXXX-000000 -d C:\Ingeniux\CMS10.2"

After the product is installed, you can then run the CMS Site Wizard via command line as well. You can view the command line flags by running Ingeniux_CMS_Site_Wizard.exe --help.
