Hi Ofer,



Here is the JScript version of the code:



var objService = GetObject("winmgmts:");

var objSoftware = objService.Get("Win32_Product");

var errReturn = objSoftware.Install("<InstallerPackage.msi>", "", true);

if (errReturn == 0)

  Log.Message("Installation completed");

else 

  Log.Message("Installation failed"); 





Also, you can use the code below to run your msi file via the command line in your script:



var WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");  //Creates the WScript.Shell object

WshShell.Run("msiexec.exe /i" + "<InstallerPackage.msi>");  //Installs the msi package via the command line
