RDM 2025 .net 9 Installer - Same issue from 2024 .net 8 installer

RDM 2025 .net 9 Installer - Same issue from 2024 .net 8 installer

avatar

Hello,

Can you please add the installer for .net 9 into the installer for RDM 2025 the same way you did with .net 8 and 2024? We reported this to you in 2024 as our users do not have local admin and no way to install .net 9 without IT intervention.

This should be the go forward for all future releases. It worked extremely well with 2024.

Thanks,
Jeff L

Hi Jeff

Yes - exactly the same - it will just take the appropriate runtime version for the RDM version you installing, if that makes sense.

I did test this on my side when I made the change for 2025.1 and found it to work well.

That being said, this is not a very widely used feature so I recommend you run through it as a test before deploying on a large scale. But as I wrote, nothing really has changed here except for updating some version numbers.

Thanks and kind regards,

Hi Jeff

This should already be available - using the same mechanism, if you're installing RDM 2025.1 it should install .NET 9.0.x.

Did you try it out? If you have an issue with that, please let me know.

Kind regards,

Ok, just to confirm, the installation switches are the same?

What we used for 2024 -
/quiet INSTALL_DOTNET_RUNTIME="1"

Is the .NET installer packaged in the msi, or does it make a call to download it? Asking as we limit the outbound connections our PAW workstations can connect to.

Thanks!

Hello

It's downloaded at runtime. I could provide the URLs it uses if that is helpful?

Thanks and kind regards,
