Silent Installation on Apple Macintosh

To perform silent mode installation on Apple Macintosh:

1. Extract the contents of the OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-package.zip file to a temporary location.
2. Start the Terminal application.
3. Navigate to the location where you have unzipped the OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-package.zip file.
4. Untar the OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-osx-installer.tar file.
5. Ensure that you have the permissions that are required to run the installer file, OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-osx-installer.app. If not, you must run the following command:

   chmod -R a=rx OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-osx-installer.app
   

6. If you want to run the installation as an administrator, enter the following command:

   sudo OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-osx-installer.app/Contents/MacOS/installbuilder.sh --mode unattended --installdir <install_location>
   

   If you want to run the installation as a user (not an administrator), enter the following command:

   OTPDesktop-Web-2.1-osx-installer.app/Contents/MacOS/installbuilder.sh --mode unattended --installdir <install_location>
   

   The preceding command installs the ArcotID OTP Desktop Client in the specified location. See the table in Performing the Silent Mode Installation for information on additional options.
