To install StoreFront at a command prompt

Instructions

To install StoreFront at a command prompt

1. Log on to the StoreFront server using an account with local administrator permissions.
2. Ensure that all of the requirements for installation of StoreFront are met before installing StoreFront. Refer to Before installing and configuring for details.
3. Browse your installation media or download package, locate CitrixStoreFront-x64.exe, and copy the file to a temporary location on the server.
4. At a command prompt, navigate to the folder containing the installation file and type the following command.

   CitrixStoreFront-x64.exe [-silent] [-INSTALLDIR installationlocation] 
     [-WINDOWS_CLIENT filelocation\filename.exe] 
     [-MAC_CLIENT filelocation\filename.dmg]
   

   Use the -silent argument to perform a silent installation of StoreFront and all the prerequisites. By default, StoreFront is installed at C:\Program Files\Citrix\Receiver StoreFront\. However, you can specify a different installation location using the -INSTALLDIR argument, where installationlocation is the directory in which to install StoreFront.

   By default, if a Receiver for Web site cannot detect Citrix Receiver on a Windows or Mac OS X device, the user is prompted to download and install the appropriate Citrix Receiver for their platform from the Citrix website. You can modify this behavior so that users download the Citrix Receiver installation files from the StoreFront server instead. For more information, see Make Citrix Receiver installation files available on the server.

   If you plan to make this configuration change, specify the -WINDOWS_CLIENT and -MAC_CLIENTarguments to copy Receiver for Windows and Receiver for Mac installation files, respectively, to the appropriate location in your StoreFront deployment. Replace filelocation with the directory containing the installation file that you want to copy and filename with the name of the Citrix Receiver installation file. Receiver for Windows and Receiver for Mac installation files are included on your StoreFront installation media or download package.
