Autodesk Revit deployment

Autodesk Revit deployment

Hello

Thanks for reading this post and for any help or suggestions.

I'm struggling to install versions of Autodesk Revit 2016, 17, 18 and 19) via Desktop Central, software deployment or Configurations.

Has anyone consistently and successfully install this software?

 

Revit installers include a deployment tool which I’ve followed. This in turn provides the following SMS SCCM scripts as part of the deployment package.

.\Img\Setup.exe /W /q /I Img\RVT19.ini /language en-us

Or

.\Img\Setup.exe /W /Q /I .\Img\<deployment name>.ini /language en-us

 

I’m using the second script but it’s not deploying properly. Over the months of trying I’ve seen all sorts of errors ranging from ‘fatal failed’ ‘1604’ ‘Formt error’ etc.

In general my experience has been massively inconsistent and unreliable.

 

I’ve ended up resorted to either using the System Manager CMD (hit and miss for large installers) or deploying a .bat file locally.

The .bat is executed locally as Admin, contains the following:

 

ECHO RVT2019 Install

start /wait \\path\Software\AUTODESK\Revit\RVT19\Img\Setup.exe /W /Q /I .\Img\RVT19.ini /language en-US

ECHO RVT2019 Update

start /wait \\path\Software\AUTODESK\Revit\RVT19\Updates\Autodesk_Revit_2019_2.exe /q

 

I’ve attempted to deploy the .bat files as a configuration and while it seems to deploy successfully the applications are not installed.

 

Thanks for any help!
