Response Files

Introduction

A response file is an installer properties file used to provide properties for an installer running in silent mode. The files contain text in a simple VARIABLE=VALUE format.

Response files

The properties in the response files are captured by executing the installer and the captured variables are then used as default values for future silent installs. The installer automatically checks the same directory as the installer for a file called installer.properties to use as input to the installer.

An example of a response file containing properties: 
#Accept License Agreement
#---------------------
ACCEPT_EULA=YES
#Choose Install Folder
#---------------------
USER_INSTALL_DIR=/home/<username>/2026/altair
#Change Shortcut Folder (Local)
#------------------------------
SET_START_MENU_FOLDER=Altair 2026
INSTALL_DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS=0
#Enter License Path Location
#-----------------------------
FLUX_ALTAIR_LICENSE_PATH=6200@server.domain
Note: Spaces should not be used between VARIABLE=VALUE statements in the response file.
