Good morning

What is the best to implement and utilize MSP files with AutoMox. I have tried both required software and creating a worklet with the simple PowerShell command that works when run locally on my machine. Has anyone gotten this to work?

​@JWillms Although i haven't tried it but worklet should do the trick!! can you put your code in here so members can have a look and provide feedback!!

Thanks ​@Maulik_Busa !

It’s a simple one liner; 

Start-Process -FilePath 'msiexec.exe' -ArgumentList '/qn', '/p', 'FoxitPDFEditorUpd1401.msp' -Wait -Passthru

 

I attach the MSP file in question to the worklet, throw in an exit 0 for evaluation and the above command in the remediation code.

Actually, when responding here, I found a typo and things appeared to work correctly. Seems I just need another set of eyes so to speak.

The Required Software policy requires the scope to be exact, even case sensitive for compliance.

I was able to get this updated using the script similar to yours:

powershell1 line
Start-Process -FilePath "foxit1401.msp" -ArgumentList "/norestart /qn" -Wait -PassThru -ErrorAction Stop
​​​​P​​​re-Deployment
Required Software Contents
Post-policy deployment

Hope this helps, more than happy to answer any follow up questions.
