Silent Installation

Travelport provides a Galileo Print Manager.net installation process that does not require user interaction, referred to as a "silent install". This topic explains this process. For the regular user-interactive process, see Installing Galileo Print Manager.net.

Galileo Print Manager.net Installation Package

The “GPM.NET.exe” file is the installation package for the Galileo Print Manager.net application. It is contained in a compressed (.zip) folder. Download the most current version of the compressed Galileo Print Manager.net installation package from the Travelport Support Website provided by your Travelport representative.

Microsoft .NET Framework

Galileo Print Manager.net is a 32/64-bit Windows application that requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 as a prerequisite. The GPM.NET installation process automatically installs Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 if it is not currently installed on the computer that hosts GPM.NET.

You can download .NET Framework 4.8 from the following locations:

Notes:

  • The computer might automatically reboot at the end of the silent installation process if Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 was automatically installed during the process.

  • If the GPM.NET installation process does not install the .NET Framework successfully, download and install Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8 from the support page provided by your Travelport representative.

Silent Installation Options

You can silently install Galileo Print Manager.net in the following ways:

  • Option 1 — Automatically uses the local system account to install Galileo Print Manager.net in the default installation directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Galileo Print Manager .NET).

Installation Steps

The installation steps for each silent installation option are the same except for step 6.
