Ran into something that we haven’t seen before when creating packages. We are trying to install Kofax Capture 11 in our enviroment. Per the vendor, setup.exe has to be run from the server and the files can’ be downloaded to the pc and ran from there. Is it possible to use Bigfix to install an application from a UNC path?
It isn’t recommended, but possible if the share permissions are null.
What do you run the BigFix agent under? If it is with specific account, it should work but generally speaking if it is “SYSTEM” by default it does not have ability to access network resources. I would look into the the override of action script parameter and runas an account that has rights to the network share. https://developer.bigfix.com/action-script/reference/execution/override.html
Were you successful? Care to share your actionscript?
Oh, sorry. We were not and decided to go another route. We had issues with the network permissions.
