<div><div class="section"> <p>Silent installations use a response file (file.iss) for the responses
|
||
|
|
to prompts during the installation process. This eliminates the need for any
|
||
|
|
user interaction during the installation process, and allows you to quickly
|
||
|
|
and easily copy duplicate installations across your network. Information about
|
||
|
|
the status of the silent installation can be recorded in a log file (file.log).</p>

<ul><li class="liexpand"><samp class="codeph">-f1</samp> is an optional parameter where you can specify the

response file (<strong>file.iss</strong>) to use. If you do not use this parameter,
|
||
|
|
then the installation attempts to use a default response file named setup.iss.
|
||
|
|
It looks for this file in the directory containing setup.exe. <p><samp class="codeph">d:\dir</samp> is
|
||
|
|
the drive and directory that contains the response file that you want to use.
|
||
|
|
If you use the <var class="varname">-f1</var> parameter, then you must specify the

drive and directory along with the response file name.</p>
|

|

</li>
|
||
|
|
<li class="liexpand"><samp class="codeph">-f2</samp> is an optional parameter where you can specify the
|

|
location and name for the log file that the silent installation creates. If
|
||
|
|
you do not use this parameter, the installation creates a log file named setup.log
|

and places it in the directory containing setup.exe. <p><samp class="codeph">d:\dir</samp> is
|
||
|
|
the drive and directory that contains the log file. If you use the <samp class="codeph">-f2</samp> parameter,

then you must specify the drive and directory along with the log file name. <strong>file.log</strong> is
|

the name of the log file that you want to create.</p>
