Good morning,

WAPT version: 2.3
license: company
server: debian 11
test: Windows 2019

I'm creating a package to install an iVanti VPN client software (formerly Pulse)
It's an .msi file

I need to install the VPN client by reading the configuration file, which is located in the package directory

I need to send the complete directory or the configuration file as a parameter

example
msiexec /i PulseSecure.x64.msi CONFIGFILE="c:\temp\my configuration..pulsepreconfig "

How can I retrieve the full path of the VPN-TELETRAVAIL.pulsepreconfig file?

properties = {"CONFIGFILE":"?????VPN-TELETRAVAIL.pulsepreconfig"}

With this on pyscripter, it works.
properties = {"CONFIGFILE":"C:\waptdev\cd12-ivanti-secure-access-client_22.2.1295_x64_Windows_PROD\VPN-TELETRAVAIL.pulsepreconfig"}

Code: Select all

service_name = 'PulseSecureService'
bin_name = glob.glob("PulseSecure-*.msi")[0]
configuration_file = glob.glob("*.pulsepreconfig")[0]
properties = {"CONFIGFILE":"VPN-TELETRAVAIL.pulsepreconfig"}

def install():
    # Declaring local variables

    # Installing the software
    print("Installation de : PulseSecure-x64-%s avec le fichier de configuration %s pour les utilisateurs hors DSI " % (bin_name,configuration_file))
    install_msi_if_needed(bin_name,properties = properties)


def audit():

    if not service_installed(service_name):
        print("ERREUR : Le service %s n'est pas installé " % service_name)
        return "ERROR"
    if not service_is_running (service_name):
        print("ERREUR : Le service %s n'est pas lancé " % service_name)
        return "WARNING"
    if not service_get_start_mode(service_name) == 'Auto':
        print("ERREUR : le service %s n'est pas en demarrage automatique" % service_name)
        return "WARNING"
    else:
        print("Le service %s est lancé " % service_name)
        return "OK"

Good morning

You have an implicit variable that can be used: basedir

However, basedir is only available in the install function, so properties will need to be moved

Code: Select all

def install():
    properties = {"CONFIGFILE": makepath(basedir,'VPN-TELETRAVAIL.pulsepreconfig')}

Thank you
But I ultimately couldn't use install_msi_if_needed because the MSI key and the actual key in the registry are different

here is my modified package

Code: Select all
