Lotus Notes silent install is not really ... silent

Hi,

We currently have a dual-language install of Lotus Notes 6 (dutch/french). This was accomplished by installing both the dutch and french edition of Lotus Notes client in a multi-user setup. (this was the only possible way in Notes 6.x).

Now, we want to upgrade to Lotus Notes 7. I perform a silent install of the dutch Lotus Notes 7 client, and then I install the french language pack. (this is how Lotus Notes 7 handles multi-language installations).

The problem: for some obscure reason, the Lotus Notes installer keeps informing me (with a popup) that multiple installations of Lotus Notes are detected, and both of them will be uninstalled.

Now that’s perfectly fine by me, but it also displays this popup when I specify the /s switch for a silent install!

Result: The installation can only continue when someone pushes the “ok”-button in the popup box.

This is the commandline I use :

702nl_unpacked\setup.exe /w /s /v"ALLUSERS=1 /qn

Is there any way to solve this ?

Hi Jeroen,I’m getting a very similar problem with our MUIs. Did you ever find a solution?

Thanks.
