InedoAgent Silent Install
-
I'm trying to follow the instructions - https://docs.inedo.com/docs/en/inedoagent-installation-silent-installation?highlight=agent silent install - to do a silent install of the Otter Agent but can't seem to get it working.
When I copy and paste the arguments in the list the Otter Agent installs briefly then disappears from the install location.
If I run with no arguments and just /S it installs silently without issue, but that doesn't solve the problem of using AES encryption and silently installing.
Things I've tried:
- Different install location.
- Different encryption type (None, AES)
- Different encryption keys
- Different temp location.
- Different order of arguments.
- Different service name.
Am I doing something silly?

OK I've got it silently installing without specifying the encryption key. I think I have found the error of my ways. The encryption key should be a 64 character length hexadecimal not 32. When I specify "3e56ce4ae8ad498e447944fa79c7b21571a2acd3723b75966beff78b70ff14c6" for instance, that works fine.

Hi @OtterFanboy,
Good catch. I'll get the documentation updated shortly to reflect this. The older version of the Inedo Agent was only a 32-bit requirement, but we changed it to a 64-bit requirement in the newer agents. Unfortunately, I don't remember which version it changed in though.
Thanks,
Rich
