Installing Laserfiche Desktop Client Only With Laserfiche Deployment Toolkit

asked on May 6, 2022

I'm playing around with the Laserfiche Deployment Toolkit for the first time. I was hoping the use the GUI tool to push the Laserfiche Desktop Client to our end users but as I go through the setup it seems to be demanding that I set up a Laserfiche Directory Server and Laserfiche Server in the applications list.

 

If I hit 'Next' from this screen it just does nothing. Our LFDS and LFS are already set up. Is there anyway to just do the LF Client this way? Am I missing something? Or am I going to have to try to use the scripts to do it?

If the LFDS and LFS has already been setup, you still need to add them in the configuration for Deployment Toolkit with the existing settings(license site, repository, users ect.) for them. When run the Deployment Toolkit script, although it says installing Server/DirectoryServer, but the setup application of them has the mechanism to skip the installation when the product is already installed; the configuration for LFDS and LFS will always take place with the exist settings but Deployment Toolkit has handled them either by skipping the setting or configure the setting again, sample logs for run Deployment Toolkit with LFDS/LFS already setup are as following:
