Custom Silent Install - MST File?
Hello all,
This is related to a case I have open but I wanted to post in the community as well for the sake of time and also because I currently don't have a free server to test this theory out. Not a lot of documentation on this one.
We want to do a silent installs for QlikView on aws servers. However we need to make sure to be able to apply specific settings (C vs D Drive, IIS vs Webserver, etc).
There is an .msi file that executes the silent installation, but there is also a .mst file that is generated. So my question is, is the .mst file where the custom configurations are set? So if we have a successful installation on a server, will we be able to use the .msi and .mst files to do the exact same silent install with the same configs on other servers?
edit:
Also found another post about generating the .mst file below:
https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView-App-Development/Msi-installation/m-p/231414
This post references a program called InstallTailor to generate the .mst file. Is this necessary? What is the .mst file that was generated upon the installation?
