Can you try using the run_as_administrator function?
Code: Select all
from common import run_as_administrator
run_as_administrator('sample.exe','--args')
Good morning,
I had high hopes but it doesn't work with all packages that do not support installation under SYSTEM account.
For example, EBP, which includes SQL Express.
I tried both run_as_administrator and Start-Process, both with an MSI and an EXE file

I need to revisit this package sometime because I'm also deploying EPB PGI Education; I'll create a new post if I manage to do anything!

Good morning,
Sorry to reply to a resolved message, but I had the same problem with Archicad, so I install it by simply running the MSI file. It's worked that way for us for several years.
Code: Select all
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from setuphelpers import *
import time
uninstallkey = ['{6AA0BE64-99F3-4148-ACD4-CAB38B3C69C8}']
def install():
print('Installation de Archiwizard 2021 9.0.0')
softname = 'ArchiWIZARD'
check_installed = installed_softwares(softname)
if check_installed:
for uninstall in check_installed:
key=uninstall['key']
if installed_softwares(uninstallkey=key
print('Desinstallation des anciens ArchiWIZARD')
cmd = WAPT.uninstall_cmd(uninstall['key'])
run_notfatal(cmd)
time.sleep(5)
run('ArchiWIZARD-2021-x64.msi /qn /norestart')

Thank you.
Unfortunately, I had already tried all the classic methods without success: run(), install_msi_if_needed(), install_exe_if_needed()
