Hopefully none of the Epicor people take offense to this, but the client install process in my environment is terrible. I’m constantly hit with permissions errors, missing .bat file errors, file already exists errors. Maybe my deployment shares are setup wrong, or maybe my admins don’t have the ri…

It is as easy as installing the client in one workstation, zipping up that bad boy and deploying it around with your favorite deployment package. Make sure the folder you end up putting it in has Read / Write for all so that when the next update is release the autoupdate works fine. Obviously all …

Now all I need to do is get it to install cleanly on one so I feel comfortable duplicating it :smiley:

Work was also done in 10.1.600 and improved in 10.2.100 to install the client without requiring that the user has Admin Rights on the machine. There are a few caveats to this new functionality - for example, you have to be on a new version before you get the full newer behavior (the old Epicor.exe i…

We use a vbs file deployed via GPO on login. It can be run ad hoc as well. It essentially copies the zips from the server, creates the local dir if it doesn’t exist, and unpacks them and places icons on their desktop. It’s been pretty painless.

Sure. Mi code es su code. (Or somethin’…) You’ll have to modify server names and locations to your needs. ***Edit: The ‘Purpose’ section is a bit dated. There’s no CheckUpdateVsn block. That used to be when we ran it as a batch file. ' ==========================================================…

Similar to Hannah’s we use a .vbs which uses robocopy.exe that Setup.vbs can be invoked manually or used as a package via SCCM or GPO. I like Hannah’s script, his actually has the client in a .zip - where mine is literally 900mb unzipped, it was a quick config. Example: [2018-12-19_1020] [2018-12…

We used to have the files unzipped on the server and a batch file would copy them all over to the local client. This killed our network on upgrade days. It went SO much faster to copy the zip locally and extract. Plus, you got the benefit of having the unzip progress bars, so the user could see wha…

Only thing I can contribute to Hannah’s is a .NET Check gist only: on error resume next FrameWork = "" FrameWork = WS.RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full\Version") FrameWorkStripped = Left(Replace(FrameWork, ".", ""), 3) 'Convert 4.7.2 to 472 so we can …

@hmwillett Im definitely going to have to use the .zip version… Imagine every update 1000 PCs x 900mb lol thats like what 1TB in Bandwith. Probably even use 7z We have Maintenance Windows and we use SCCM to deploy the Updates. So when the users come in the next day, we don’t want Epicor Auto-Updat…
