Hi, I tried it too, got the same result. I looked into the setup.iss file that setup -r created, and found these lines that looked different from the others:
[SetupType-0] Result=301 szDir= The SdAskDestPath dialogs has: [SdAskDestPath-0] szDir=C:\mysql Result=1 So I thought I'd give it a try and change the SetupType section like this: [SetupType-0] Result=1 szDir=C:\mysql And now it works! Seems that "Result=1" and/or "szDir=C:\mysql" is the right thing :-) Jan R Andersson > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: den 4 mars 2002 21:08 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: Slient install - Win32 Mysql > > > I have the same problem (silent install).
