Using the QNX Software Center command line, you can perform unattended installation of the QNX Software Center and the QNX Software Development Platform (SDP). You can also create an automated deployment script for installing these products across multiple machines. This capability is especially useful if you intend to install QNX SDP on one or more build servers.
If you have a single machine that supports a GUI and a web browser, you can ignore this chapter and use the standard installation procedures described in the QNX Software Center User's Guide.
To create an unattended installation, you must have:
To test your connection to www.qnx.com, check if your web browser can navigate to this URL: http://www.qnx.com/download/download/37277/helloworld.txt
curl -L http://www.qnx.com/download/download/37277/helloworld.txt
The command should print hello world. If it doesn't, your proxy needs to be reconfigured. Provide your IT team with the URL and ask them to configure the proxy or to whitelist the servers. You can also provide the IT team with our proxy troubleshooting note: http://www.qnx.com/developers/docs/qsc/technotes/topic/about.html#servers
You should also make sure that the license you intend to use for your installation appears in the Registered Products section of your myQNX account (https://www.qnx.com/account/login.html). If you're going to use a build server license, we recommend that you create a myQNX account dedicated solely to that license. (Note that build server licenses are supported on Linux and Microsoft Windows machines only.)
