I’m trying to install the Octopus Tentacle using a powershell script and I’m having an issue passing the Install Directory value to the script. I have included the script and the output below, please help. Thanks!
##############SCRIPT##############
$TentacleInstaller = “D:\ITRM\Tools\Octopus\Octopus.Tentacle.3.13.7.x64.msi”
$InstallTarget = “D:\Program Files\Octopus Deploy\Tentacle”
$TentacleInstallLog = “D:\ITRM\Logs\Installs\TentacleInstall.log”
Write-Output “Installing Tentacle”
$msiExitCode = (Start-Process -FilePath “msiexec.exe” -ArgumentList TARGETDIR=’$InstallTarget’" /i $TentacleInstaller /L*V $TentacleInstallLog /quiet" -Wait -Passthru).ExitCode
if ($msiExitCode -ne 0) {
Write-Output "Tentacle MSI installer returned exit code $msiExitCode"
throw “Installation aborted”
}
