1) it is unusual to pass both /quiet and /passive -- the usual pattern is /quiet (no UI) XOR /passive (progress dialog only);
2) I don't know about CE as I no longer use it, but for LocalDB or SqlExpress there's a flag you have to set that takes the place of acknowledging the license in the UI -- you may need that here; -- John Merryweather Cooper Senior Software Engineer | Enterprise Service Applications | Continuing Development Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.® | Lenexa, KS 66214 | Ext: 431050 |jocoo...@jackhenry.com -----Original Message----- From: Rainer Queck [mailto:rainer.qu...@qutronic.de] Sent: Monday, November 3, 2014 8:17 AM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [WiX-users] How to silently install embedded SQL Hi I would like do do a unattended install of embedded sql server. Here is how I am doing it: <Fragment> <PackageGroup Id="EmbeddedSql"> <ExePackage InstallCommand="/quiet /passive" RepairCommand="/quiet /passive" UninstallCommand="/uninstall /quiet /passive" SourceFile="D:\Daten\Softwareentwicklung\Projekte\BfpNetR2\3_Entwicklung\Source\Main\3rdParty\Installs\SSCERuntime_x64-DEU.exe" InstallCondition="VersionNT64"/> <ExePackage InstallCommand="/quiet /passive" RepairCommand="/quiet /passive" UninstallCommand="/uninstall /quiet /passive" SourceFile="D:\Daten\Softwareentwicklung\Projekte\BfpNetR2\3_Entwicklung\Source\Main\3rdParty\Installs\SSCERuntime_x86-DEU.exe" InstallCondition="NOT VersionNT64"/> </PackageGroup> </Fragment> But the installation fails. The MSI Installer window pops up showing me the possible option, among which I see "/quiet" and "/passive"... which I am using. The Log contains: [073C:026C][2014-11-03T05:58:51]i301: Applying execute package: SSCERuntime_x86_DEU.exe, action: Install, path: C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\EC420A4D2962E89796B7E7382BC0DCC944625052\SSCERuntime_x86-DEU.exe, arguments: '"C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\EC420A4D2962E89796B7E7382BC0DCC944625052\SSCERuntime_x86-DEU.exe" /quiet /passive' [073C:026C][2014-11-03T06:11:36]e000: Error 0x80070667: Process returned error: 0x667 [073C:026C][2014-11-03T06:11:36]e000: Error 0x80070667: Failed to execute EXE package.
