Silent Installation

Silent Installations require no user interaction; Cadcorp SIS WebMap 9.1 can be installed automatically in the background.

Ensure the Pre-Installation checks have been carried out.

Enter a command line as follows:

CadcorpWebMap-9.1.xxxx (x64).exe /s /v"/qn - for the 64-bit installation

or

CadcorpWebMap-9.1.xxxx (x86).exe /s /v"/qn - for the 32-bit installation

Note: There are spaces in the command line between .exe, /s and /v

Additional licensing parameters (shown below) must follow /qn in the above example.

The parameter list shows the available properties in capital letters, their descriptions plus value options where appropriate:

1. Licensing parameter:

LIC_FILE_PATH_CMD_LINE: Set the source location of the licence file for the Web Map Product.

Example: LIC_FILE_PATH_CMD_LINE="C:\Licences\cadcorp.lservrc.9.0"

2. Connection parameters (WebMap only, not required for Web Map Express)

GEOG_WEB_ADDR: Specifies the GeognoSIS instance address. Example:GEOG_WEB_ADDR=localhost.

Note: This can be "localhost" or the IP address of the GeognoSIS server, i.e. 10.0.2.100.

GEOG_PORT_NUM: Specifies the GeognoSIS instance port. Example: GEOG_PORT_NUM=4328

Note: Remember 4326 is the default port number. Your GeognoSIS instance may be using a different port.

  1. IIS_APPLICATION: Specifies the application name (IIS virtual directory) – Assumes the name “WebMapLayers8” or “WebMapExpress8” if ignored.
  2. WEBSITE: IIS web site to install to (If ignored, the installer will assume the value “Default Web Site”)
  3. CC_TICKBOX_GEOG_ON_DIFF_SERVER: Set to true if GeognoSIS is on a different server. The stored procedures and data will then be copied to the desktop. 

Note: This CC_TICKBOX_GEOG_ON_DIFF_SERVER parameter is not required for Web Map Express.

The following is a complete command line example:

“Cadcorp WebMap 9.1 (x64).exe" /s /v"/qn LIC_FILE_PATH_CMD_LINE="C:\Users\testuser\Desktop\Licences\cadcorp.lservrc" GEOG_WEB_ADDR=geognosis_server GEOG_PORT_NUM=4326 IIS_APPLICATION="TestWebMapLayers9”

WebMap installation will check and automatically turn on any necessary IIS features. These are the features used:

  • World Wide Web Services > Application Development Features > ASP .NET 4.5 (Windows 2012, 8.1 or later)
  • World Wide Web Services > Common HTTP Features > Static Content

The only user input required is enabling IIS.
