How to manually install the EPiServer Scheduling Service

I'm trying to manually install the EPiServer scheduler service on a web server using installutil.

I run this at the command promp: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\installutil D:\EPiServerSchedulerService\EPiServer.SchedulerSvc.exe

And get an error: No public installers with the RunInstallerAttribute.Yes attribute could be found in the D:\EPiServerSchedulerService\EPiServer.SchedulerSvc.exe assembly.

Solution

  • It turns out it's not possible to do this with installutil, the service doesn't support it. I used the installer EPiServerShared.msi which is included with the EPiServer CMS downloads.

    I wrote a quick blog post about it.
