Creating and Installing Packages and Packets

This section explains how to create and install the Packages and Packets installer.

1. The following files are needed to create the PKGPKTDevelopment.Installer.msi installation package. Copy all files from the PackagesAndPackets\InstallTransformKit folder to a server to produce the installation package which will need to be executed on each application server.
   • Run.bat
   • Transform.xml
   • MsiTransform.exe
   • WoltersKluwerFS.PKGPKT.Installer.msi
2. Locate and run the Run.bat file. This will create an installation executable named PKGPKTDevelopment.Installer.msi using the default installer package (WoltersKluwerFS.PKGPKT.Installer.msi) and properties specified in the Transform.xml file.
   Note: If property values are set to null in the transform.xml, you will see Failed Transformations message indicating those properties will not have a value in the installation.
3. Copy the PKGPKTDevelopment.Installer.msi installer to the application server. From the Packages and Packets application server, run the PKGPKTDevelopment.Installer.msi from a command prompt as an administrator.
