Failed to register Batch Site Manager

Installing Admin Toolkit on only one server shows up different unexpected behavior like clicking on workflow link from Site Settings page, results in an error - Failed to find XML file at location '12\Template\Features\BatchSiteManagerLinks\feature.xml'.

 

One workaround is to install the Admin Toolkit on the rest of the servers in the farm. While installing this toolkit on the other servers through the GUI, even though the toolkit installs successfully, it throws an error "Failed to register Batch Site Manager".

 

Try installing the Admin Toolkit in passive mode through the command prompt and it works.

 

Put the following commands in a batch file, put the MicrosoftSharepointAdministrationToolkit exe and this batch file in the same location and run the batch file.

 

@echo off

echo Installing Admin Toolkit

MicrosoftSharepointAdministrationToolkit /passive

echo Operation Complete

pause
