Well,hasn't been on the forum yet
I know it uses a setup.iss but don't know what to change about it
I've put it in the same directory as the isntaller and when i try the -s switch it doesn't install
Here's what's in the iss file :

*Bump*
Almost to the second page,nobody that can help?

There was this other packages that installed with "-k" instead.

And then, the old method of "-s -f1"path to ISS"" exists too.

Also, installshield logs were used by some people - you need to redirect "-f2"path to log"".



I doubt the installer is anything unique. Pretty much the same InstallShield parameters are going to apply. I've given the ideas above, maybe someone else might be able to give more specific help if they knew your app.

try the above, good luck!

Hello prathapml! This one is new to me. What does this switch do? Is is similar to the /s switch? Which type of packages use this? Does it work on the regular InstallScript based and InstallScript MSI packages? Thanks!

Daimao, the switch is actually /s. Some packages accept the -s and -S, but some packages don't. Try prathapml's suggestion too, the /s /f1"path_of_iss_file". I'm pretty sure it will answer your problem. Placing the setup.iss file in the same directory as the setup.exe doesn't work all the time. Because some installers are compressed archives, that extract their files to the %temp% folder when you run it, so it will not be able to locate the setup.iss.

The setup uses a previous version of InstallShiled. Please let us know if the -k switch works for this.

[prathapml]

duh! Don't look at me like that, I don't know....


I saw somewhere that the latest ATi (or was it nVidia ) Control Panels uses that switch now.

[totoymola]

Hahahaha!! Ok, I will try to look for more information about this, and I will post is here.

/s : nothing happens
-k : not silent
Will try the other switches now

Update : -s -f1"pathtoiss" works
But after the install another window pops asking to install the wmp codecs
So you have to taskkill it if you already have them
If not,I don't know how to do this silent
Thx prathapml ( = weird nick lol)
