Show-InstallationRestartPrompt Cancelling itself

Hi all,

Trying to update our Imprivata Agent software across our enterprise, it needs a forced restart, but I need to be able to show this to the user and give them 15 minutes or so to action it.

The exit code from the install seems to cancel out the Show-InstallationRestartPrompt - I dont know why. I get the same problem in version 3.8.3 and 3.8.4 - code snippet from below is 3.83 - can anyone spot what I’m doing wrong please??

Have read up on some previous suggestions, nothing seems to have worked for me so far. it should be simple, right? :smiley:

Can I ignore exitcode on execute msi - The Toolkit / General Discussion - PSAppDeployToolkit Community

.SYNOPSIS
This script performs the installation or uninstallation of an application(s).
# LICENSE #
PowerShell App Deployment Toolkit - Provides a set of functions to perform common application deployment tasks on Windows.

.DESCRIPTION
The script is provided as a template to perform an install or uninstall of an application(s).
The script either performs an “Install” deployment type or an “Uninstall” deployment type.
The install deployment type is broken down into 3 main sections/phases: Pre-Install, Install, and Post-Install.
The script dot-sources the AppDeployToolkitMain.ps1 script which contains the logic and functions required to install or uninstall an application.
.PARAMETER DeploymentType
The type of deployment to perform. Default is: Install.
.PARAMETER DeployMode
Specifies whether the installation should be run in Interactive, Silent, or NonInteractive mode. Default is: Interactive. Options: Interactive = Shows dialogs, Silent = No dialogs, NonInteractive = Very silent, i.e. no blocking apps. NonInteractive mode is automatically set if it is detected that the process is not user interactive.
.PARAMETER AllowRebootPassThru
Allows the 3010 return code (requires restart) to be passed back to the parent process (e.g. SCCM) if detected from an installation. If 3010 is passed back to SCCM, a reboot prompt will be triggered.
.PARAMETER TerminalServerMode
Changes to “user install mode” and back to “user execute mode” for installing/uninstalling applications for Remote Destkop Session Hosts/Citrix servers.
.PARAMETER DisableLogging
Disables logging to file for the script. Default is: $false.
.EXAMPLE
powershell.exe -Command “& { & ‘.\Deploy-Application.ps1’ -DeployMode ‘Silent’; Exit $LastExitCode }”
.EXAMPLE
powershell.exe -Command “& { & ‘.\Deploy-Application.ps1’ -AllowRebootPassThru; Exit $LastExitCode }”
.EXAMPLE
powershell.exe -Command “& { & ‘.\Deploy-Application.ps1’ -DeploymentType ‘Uninstall’; Exit $LastExitCode }”
.EXAMPLE
Deploy-Application.exe -DeploymentType “Install” -DeployMode “Silent”
.NOTES
Toolkit Exit Code Ranges:
60000 - 68999: Reserved for built-in exit codes in Deploy-Application.ps1, Deploy-Application.exe, and AppDeployToolkitMain.ps1
69000 - 69999: Recommended for user customized exit codes in Deploy-Application.ps1
70000 - 79999: Recommended for user customized exit codes in AppDeployToolkitExtensions.ps1

wow, this is an interesting one. I wish you would have formatted with </> but I think I figured out your code anyhow.

I looked in the Show-InstallationRestartPrompt function and this is the code causing that weird message:

		## Check if we are already displaying a restart prompt
		If (Get-Process | Where-Object { $_.MainWindowTitle -match $configRestartPromptTitle }) {
			Write-Log -Message "${CmdletName} was invoked, but an existing restart prompt was detected. Cancelling restart prompt." -Severity 2 -Source ${CmdletName}
			Return
		}

Given that PSADT relaunches itself to display popups that last beyond the install such as Show-InstallationRestartPrompt, it makes sense to have this in as a fail safe.

Since $configRestartPromptTitle = ‘Restart Required’ in the XML, it would seem that another instance of PSADT is running to show a reboot prompt. Maybe it’s hidden or half-crashed.

Yeah sorry it was very much a copypasta fail when I tried to upload the code…

Another instance of PSADT with the same window being displayed? huh. I checked and its the only occurrence of Show-InstallationRestartPrompt in the toolkit. Perhaps its something specific to the Imprivata application which causes it. I will try the same code with a different application, see if thats the case.

thanks for looking :slight_smile:

Plug this just before you call Show-InstallationRestartPrompt:

$allProcesses = Get-Process
$allWindowTitles=$allProcesses | Select id,name,MainWindowTitle | where { $_.MainWindowTitle -ne '' }
Write-log $allWindowTitles|out-string

It might show which process causing your problem.

Hey Not-So-Annoying-Guy,
This isn’t germane to just this post but I thought I’d take this opportunity…

I always read these posts, even when the particular question refers to features of PSADT that I don’t use (never have and probably never will use Show-InstallationPrompt), because I’m always on the lookout for interesting tips/tricks.

You’re always here, chiming in with good info even when it appears to take a fair bit of effort to parse the question. I just wanted to say, “Thanks! Your efforts are much appreciated.”

So… Thanks! Your efforts are much appreciated. As is the awesome PSADT!

Cheers.

Thank you for your support. I try to help as much as possible because I still remember the frustrations of getting stuff to almost work but can’t because PSADT/PS/.Net is so damn big. I’ve learned a lot by just reading the code in the main ps1. I really appreciate being noticed for my efforts.

Amazing Mr Guy. You led me to the answer, and its totally true what the other poster said about you, you are an asset to this community.

so the answer was literally staring us in the face. I put the text “Restart Required” in the [string]$installTitle = ‘Imprivata SSO Upgrade - RESTART REQUIRED’ of the code because I wanted the prompt to be prominent to the end user that a restart would occur. As soon as I removed this bit of text and updated it everything works as expected.

thanks again Internet Stranger, really good to know I have that fixed.

Thank you very much.

BTW: you might still be able to put “RESTART REQUIRED” back in via pig latin:
RESTART_REQUIRED
RESTART-REQUIRED
RESTART~REQUIRED
REBOOT REQUIRED

you get the idea.
