Hi Splunkers,

I cannot install UF to Windows Server 2008 by command line.

C:\>dir

2013/10/09  19:19        40,817,152 splunkforwarder-6.0-182611-x64-release.msi


C:\>msiexec.exe /i splunkforwarder-6.0-182611-x64-release.msi DEPLOYMENT_SERVER="my_deployment_server:8089" AGREETOLICENSE=Yes /quiet

Why ? Thank you for your help.

I'm sorry, but I solved this problem by myself in splunk V 6.0.1 on Windows 2008 R2 64 bit system.
Actually we need time lag (about 20 min) between the command execution and the completion of installation.

following command:
msiexec.exe /i splunkforwarder-6.0-(build_version)-x64-release.msi DEPLOYMENT_SERVER="(depoyment server:port)" AGREETOLICENSE=Yes /quiet
