Good morning,

I'm creating this thread because I have several setups I'd like to install, but I don't know how at all. I'm trying to generate a package based on an .exe file. The software I'm trying to install is: AutoCAD 2016; AutoCAD LT 2022; AutoCAD LT 2024; SEE ELECTRICAL; Elcom; Canneco BT; ZWCAD; DWG TrueView. I was only able to install DWG TrueView because it was in the WAPT store, but the others I mentioned earlier aren't in the store. So I tried the method I described, but I keep getting timeout errors. For example:

Code: Select all

TimeoutExpired: Command '"AutoCAD_LT_2022_French_Win_64bit_dlm.sfx.exe" ' timed out after 300 seconds with output ''''
or for ZWCAD:

Code: Select all

 TimeoutExpired: Command \'"ZWCAD_2023_SP2_Fra_Win_64bit.exe" \' timed out after 300 seconds with output \'\'\'\'\n']]
It's always the same thing, I don't know what to do, thank you for your help, I also saw this forum:

viewtopic.php?p=11342&hilit=autocad#p11342

But I didn't quite understand... And besides, it's a version I don't use, and I don't think it will help me with "see electrical, zwcad, canneco bt, etc...", and I absolutely need it for my business...

WAPT version: WAPT 2.3 Enterprise.
Server OS: Debian Bullseye.
OS of the administration workstation: Windows 10 Pro.

What installation arguments did you use for ZWCAD_2023_SP2_Fra_Win_64bit.exe in your setup.py file?

Have you tested the package in PyScripter?

There was no basic argument, there was "/VERYSILENT", I thought it came from the argument but not at all, and to tell you the truth I don't really know how the "setup.py" file works, there's only with AutoCAD, I was inspired by the setup.py file of DWG TrueView, but the others not coming from Autodesk I wouldn't know how to do it again.

And what do you mean by "pyscripter", is it an IDE? If so, I already use VSCode as my IDE.
