Frequently Asked Questions
Silent Installation
For silent machine-wide installation use the command below.
Debugging Installation Issues
If you get an error during the installation see the installation log file in the %TEMP% folder or your computer. Look for a file that is named installbuilder_installer_{number}.log. You may see several log files in the folder if you have used the installer several times. You should select the file that was created last.
License Population
You do not need to populate the licenses after the installation. As long as the users have been added to the license pool they will be able to check out a license from inside the CAD plugins.
Each plugin includes a license manager that allows you to activate your trial after answering a few questions. To use the license manager in Rhino, use the command PO_LicenseManager. In Revit, navigate to the Pollination tab and click the License Manager button. For more information, visit this page.
