Yes this is true, the installer checks if the GEANTLink is installed in the proper version and does not start the installation unnecessarily. Therefore if you know how to install GEANTLink silently before starting the CAT installer you will get what you need, but then in principle I could do the same thing in CAT (only my previous tests all failed).

Tomasz,

silent installation works well in Windows 7 if previously the GEANTlink MSI is installed. It has to be the same version the CAT installation package uses. Then installing regular CAT installer with /S works like a charm, no popups.

Thank you very much for your help,

Josu.

Hi,
   the /S switch will also work with Windows 7 and PEAP (which does not require the installation of GEANTLink).
The reason why this does not work with TTLS is that we need to run a sequence - install GEANTLink MSI and only when this is done install other stuff. If we run the MSI installer in its silent mode then it is installed in a separate subprocess and there seems to be no way to wait until it gets installed.

People seem to be using "start /wait msiexec /i .... /qn" to do that, but my experiments fail.

Hello,

i have been testing the CAT installer with "/S" option in order to make massive deployments in our institution but it does not work as intended in Windows 7. There is a dialog that pops up before installing GEANTlink supplicant.

In Windows 8/8.1/10 it appears to be working ok as in those platforms there is no GEANTlink installation (if i am right)

Are you aware of it? There is any plan in order to get it fixed?

Thank you in advance,

Josu
