If the settings.xml file is not created until the user launches Toad Data Point for the first time, how can we update the settings XML file with some custom values?
Is it possible to send the sample XML file that we can push to the brand-new installed users?
The Toad Data Point installation guide includes an optional parameter to specify a template file with predefined options for an installation.
More details at: https://support.quest.com/technical-documents/toad-data-point/2026%20r2/installationguide/2#TOPIC-2362251
The option is OPTIONSTEMPLATE and is used as in the example below:
msiexec /i C:\Quest\ToadDataPoint.msi OPTIONSTEMPLATE=C:\Quest\template.zip /qn /l*V "install.log"
Is recommended that the template.zip file be in the same folder as the installer file. In the example above, ToadDataPoint.msi is the name of the actual installer file to use.
To generate the template file, you go to the menu: Tools / Options / General / Generate Options Template
This will generate a zip file named template.zip
