Hello Cygwin Support, I am trying to install Cygwin silently through a management tool like SCCM (called Bigfix). I went through the FAQ on your website to see what commands/switches existed. I would like to install silently without any user interaction and so I attempted to use setup-x86_64.exe --quiet-mode and I get into an infinite loop for the installation. Bigfix tells me that the installation is waiting for user response and will not continue. It gets stuck and can't start/finish the installation. Is there any suggestions on what I can try? I also want to install a bunch of packages during the installation but thought I would try to start at a completely silent installation firsts.
I have also checked forums as well online to see if anyone else had issues. I found a one forum where someone is having the same issue with no resolution found here: https://www.itninja.com/question/cygwin-realy-silent-installation-no-progress-window-with-option-to-counsel Thanks, Paul ___________________________________________________________________ For IT support, please E-mail: fsmh...@northwestern.edu | Phone: 847-491-HELP Paul Isaacson Senior Technical Support Specialist, Client Management Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Information Technology 710 N.
