Hi,

I'm trying to install Jenkins silently onto a Windows machine using msiexec 
and the .msi file. I want to install Jenkins into a specific directory and 
tried running:

c:\windows\system32\msiexec.exe /i c:\temp\jenkins-1.469.msi /qn /L*V 
jenkins.log JENKINSDIR="C:\jenkins"


Which installed  for me except that the destination folder ended up being 
c:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins

The log showed the following lines:

MSI (s) (50:CC) [19:45:10:376]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Adding JENKINSDIR 
property. Its value is 'C:\jenkins'.
...
...
MSI (s) (50:CC) [19:45:10:423]: PROPERTY CHANGE: Modifying JENKINSDIR 
property. Its current value is 'C:\jenkins'. Its new value: 'c:\Program 
Files (x86)\Jenkins'.


Does anybody know why this property is being changed back and how it can be 
avoided?
