In complex environments with multiple servers, it can be convenient to have the DocuBuilder Template Manager installation run automatically from the command line, without having to click Next or Finish.

The version of Office (32- or 64-bit) determines which msi file you need. This does not have to match the Windows version! A 64-bit version of Windows may have a 32-bit version of Office installed.

Step by Step

  1. The DocuBuilder Template Manager is delivered through the Documizers download portal as a so-called self-extracting executable. This means that it is an exe file, but you can extract it via a program such as Winrar. The .exe file of the Template Manager contains an msi file (Windows Installer) and a settings.xml file.

  2. Make sure the .msi file and settings.xml file are in a local folder, for example C:\Temp\DBTemplate Manager\

  3. Run the .msi file from the command line with the switch options /i and /passive.

Examples

DocuBuilder Template Manager for 32-bits Office versions

msiexec /i "C:\Temp\DBTemplate Manager\TemplateManagerSetup32.msi" /passive

DocuBuilder Template Manager for 64-bits Office versions

msiexec /i "C:\Temp\DBTemplate Manager\TemplateManagerSetup64.msi" /passive
