RC3 is no longer supported with respect to such system specific version.

You might either use the non-installer version or try with version 1.0.1 (sikulix.com)

I need to install and configure sikuli on 50+ workstations. Since the MSI is no longer available, can someone one tell me how to install the jar file silently, via command line?

Any help would be much appreciated.

@blasac150
For version 1.0.1, there is no silent installation possible.

You might copy prepared jars (sikuli-ide.jar, sikuli-script.jar and sikuli-java.jar), but the you have to solve the problem with the system path setting your self.

Version 1.1.0 has a silent setup now (https://github.com/RaiMan/SikuliX-2014/issues/69) and you might as well simply copy prepared sikulix.jar and sikulixapi.jar to other systems, since no other setups (e.g. system path) are necessary any longer.

BTW: please post your own questions.

Can you help with this problem?
