APUP unattended

Guest_Daz_* 27 Dec 2008

Hi All,

Firstly let me say Hello to you all as this is my first post on this forum after finding and testing this fantastic tool for use on my small networks.

I have searched the forums and the net generally, however have not found the answer to my need.

I would like an option to be able to run apup in an unattended mode - (i am planning on running a scheduled event to launch apup) so that my files are always up to date.

I would appreciate any feedback/opinions on do this.

Cheers,
Daz

If you are running windows xp or newer(maybe 2k, dont recall) they all have task schedulers built in. Just have it run APUP then if you need, set clients to run autopatcher once a week or however often(update your client PC's on Wednesdays :) )

Right at this moment you can't run APUP unattended, because it will always stop and wait for you to select which releases you wish to update.

There are no command-line options to automatically select particular releases. Also, there is no command-line option to click the OK button for you.

But we'll certainly think about adding this to a future version of Apup.

So did you add a command line?

in fact, the current version of apup has an unattended mode. just run apup and choose options. check "remember selections" and run apup with the scripts that you wish to update always. then, next time that you wish to run apup, just run it like this: apup /auto
