[chef] Re: Silent installer for windows chef client

[Madhurranjan Mohaan < >]

Apologies : the following works :

msiexec /qb /i chef-client-0.10.4-6.msi

Problem though is that there is an issue with the Path environment variable. The environment variable "PATH" is appended with the c:\opscode\bin and c:\opscode\embedded\bin but for it to reflect on a new command prompt, I have to go to My computer, -> Environment variables -> open the path Variable -> click OK and then close which is weird and then running "knife" just works fine. WIthout doing that , it doesn't seem to work .

thanks

Hi,

I am using the .msi chef client across a few nodes right now .We will potentially be using this across 70 odd boxes . I am currently looking at trying out the resources specified here ->  https://github.com/chef-cookbooks/windows

Wanted to know what others are currently using for the same.

thanks
