In complex environments with multiple servers, it can be convenient to have the DocuBuilder Client 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 Client is delivered as an exe file. This zip file, once unpacked, contains an msi file and a bat file. The contents of the bat file contain the appropriate command-line instruction.

  2. Make sure the msi file is in a local folder, e.g. C:\Temp\DocuBuilder\

  3. Run the msi file from the commandline with the switch options /i and /qb and the variable DCURLCENTRAL="DocuBuilder URL"
    The DocuBuilder URL can be found in the bat file.
