I converted the SQL exe tool to intunewin format, but there are many additional files needed to fully set up the application in silent mode that i do not know how to include in the intune win32 application package option. Also, i wanted to use a batch script to uninstall the application to run some commands to remove any left over sql folders and i cant find a way to add a batch file. Any help or guidance, reference to a KB article or anything will be appreciated

I consult with SQL engineer and it seems that the SQL Server 2019 cannot be installed in silent mode as there is some prompt during the installation, such as typing account and password. See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/apps-win32-app-management
SQL Server 2019 cannot be installed in silent mode as there is some prompt during the installation
It can, but only with the standard installation media: Install SQL Server using a configuration file
There is a way to install this using silent mode. I have managed to do this but it seems it fails on the uninstall as the setup.exe is not in the same location as the installation. This is really frustrating as I need to install around 15 laptops with SQL server for Sales Consultants. The error that I get from intune is very generic though.
You have to use a mediapath as that is where the setup.exe will be placed which can allow you to uninstall this. I can complete this successfully using CMD

Hey MartinDon,
I am having the same issue as the OP and was hoping you could clarify a bit more on your post - How do you go about packaging into a Win32 app? Given SQL Server 2019 Enterprise is an ISO, what is the correct way to package it for Endpoint Manager? I have the ISO, I can see the Setup.exe and installation files and folders etc. Do I simply copy everything the entire folder structure to my 'Source' folder when creating the Win32 app, specify Setup.exe as the installer and then wrap the whole lot?

This piqued my interest and I am wondering if the uninstall fails via intune because it is looking for the intune app id rather than the location on disk.

I had the same requirement recently, after several test i managed to deploy SQL express via intune with these steps.
