assuming you store the file at c:
run the following commands from an elevated PowerShell command line:
$file = “c:\WindowsServerAppFabricSetup_x64.exe”
& $file /i CacheClient”,”CachingService”,”CacheAdmin
/gac
Note the double quotations around the commas.
Thanks for this Doug. Very helpful.
ReplyDeleteIs it okay to install the the AppFabric SP1 after I install App fabric using these commands without changing any of the initial configurations.
ReplyDeleteBrian, I have not tried it, but all of the Microsoft documentation says to completely uninstall pre-existing versions of the App Fabric before installing version 1.1. I would recommend following these articles to uninstall an existing installation of AppFabric:

I have a questions, I seem to have an issue with the app fabric on a new farm build with 3 servers. I think the problem may be because I see when I click on configure, it shows "This Machine is not a member of an AppFabric Caching Cluster" And then is shows the A feature AppFabric requires Enterprise or higher.....well how can I do that with server 2012? It either standard or datacenter with no feature differences that I am aware of.
ReplyDeleteAnybody else have this problem?
Tom, I'm not sure exactly what steps you followed to install AppFabric, but you may want to take a look at this post: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointadmin/thread/c4e19d6b-8599-4048-a679-d7c7fed6bc07
