Title: Message Title Etienne Lacombe commented on PUP-3979 Re: Windows Package Should Switch between Execute and Install Mode loglevel = debug does get rid of the output but the run still gets recorded as if it had changed something on the node. unless - not sure how I would implement this. I would need to run the package first to know if it will need to install, if it does, then before installing it, then I need to run the exec but if it won't install anything (because it's already installed) then I don't need to run the exec. What I see more workable, but that means changing the windows package provider is that either through a parameter or on its own volition, it runs those commands to change the mode if it determine that it will install the package.

Title: Message Title Josh Cooper commented on PUP-3979 Re: Windows Package Should Switch between Execute and Install Mode I wonder if this should be implemented via pre post run commands instead, because other resources, e.g. `exec` or `powershell` resources may need to be in the proper context. Unfortunately, pre post run commands don't work on Windows, see PUP-1431.

Title: Message Title Kylo Ginsberg commented on PUP-3979 Re: Windows Package Should Switch between Execute and Install Mode I don't know much about the useful scenarios - would we want this to be optional even if RDP is enabled/installed?

The scenario is installing Windows applications with Puppet on a Windows RDP server. I have Puppet install the applications without problem, but per the best practice, you're supposed to be in install mode when doing so, and switching back to execute mode.
I can do the following and it works:

Title: Message Title Etienne Lacombe commented on PUP-3979 Re: Windows Package Should Switch between Execute and Install Mode Just a correction, this is not only when the administrator is running Puppet from an RDP session. According to MS documentation, that is the way to install applications on an RDP server - regardless of whether you are, as admin, accessing the server through RDP or local console. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc742815.aspx To ensure that an application is installed correctly to work in a multiuser environment, you must put the RD Session Host server into a special installation mode before you install the application on the RD Session Host server. This special installation mode ensures that the correct registry entries and .ini files that are needed to support running the application in a multiuser environment are created during the installation process. This applies only to a server with the RDP feature installed.
