I'm trying to automate LabVIEW 5 setup (don't ask

). It uses InstallShield version 3.0.107.0. When I try running it as setup.exe -R, it executes properly but doesn't leave an .iss file anywhere on the hard drive! Anyone have an idea as to how to make it do so?

have you tried

Setup.exe /r /sms /f1"c:\Setup.iss" /f2"c:\ISLog.txt"

along with your installer??

Hi there, my first post

Use /r rather than -r

The .iss file will be located in your C:\WINDOWS directory

Hope this helps

Of course there is always the possibility that the person who designed the software did a custom job on it and made it so that it doens't need setup.iss. There are lots of programs out there where this is the case.

If it is the case, I suggest you email the manufacturer and ask them.
