Deploying Salesforce.com Chatter Desktop with SCCM

I am trying to deploy the latest update of the Chatter Desktop using the following command line:

"Adobe AIR Installer.exe" -silent -desktopShortcut -programMenu desktop_mv_3.0.1.air

It returns a message "too many arguments" and does not install.

Does anyone have any ideas what "too many arguments" means?

Thanks for your help!

Jason, are you sure that you are using the Adobe AIR from the Adobe AIR Redistribution site? It differs from the private one!

Had the same issue

Download the ZIP File with the installer on the Adobe AIR Redistribution Site.

I finally got this to work and I'm using the regular downloaded version.  I don't think I did anything differently than when I first tried.  I did however sign up for the redistribution version but haven't heard back from Adobe with a download link.

Jason, did you already figured out how you Update SFDC Chatter if there is a Update available?

You can't just rollout the new version...

I forgot to mention that I've already read all of the documentation that Adobe has provided.  I'm actually using the command line that was suggested in one of the documents but I am encountering the error above when testing the command line from a command prompt which leads me to believe that it won't work from SCCM either.

I just gave this a try:

1. Opened a command prompt as administrator

2. navigated to the same folder as my .air file

3. typed: "c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR Application Installer.exe" -silent -desktopShortcut -programMenu test.air

The command line was accepted and the installer ran and installed silently.

Are you able to run your .air file manually?
