Hi,
I have seen here on the forum that I’m supposed to be able to use a setup.iss file to do a silent installation of Photoshop.

I start the installation by typing setup.exe -r and when the installation is done I have got the file setup.iss in C:\windows.

But then how do I use that file?

I have tried everything I could think of like putting the setup.iss file in the directory where I have copied the installation files to. I have also copied it into C:\windows and c:\windows\system32. Then I try to start the installation in different ways but they all fail – in fact the installation never starts. I have tried setup.exe /s, setup.exe -s, setup.exe -s c:\windows, setup.exe -s c:\windows\setup.iss and so on.

How am I supposed to do?

Move your, with Setp.exe -r generated Setup.iss file to a place in your LAN (\\YourServer\AbdobeSource). After this run the Setup.exe with Parameter -s

F.e. in a batch file:

everything in one line!!!!

\\YourServer\AbdobeSource\Setup.exe -s -f1\\YourServer\AbdobeSource\Setup.iss -f2C:\Temp\Adobe.log

In the adobe.log you get a responscode it shows you how installation has been.

Hi,
I tried
d:\photoshop\setup.exe -s -f1c:\temp\setup.iss -f2c:\temp\setup.log all in one line but setup return after just a few seconds and I only get the following response in the log-file:

[InstallShield Silent]
Version=v5.00.000
File=Log File
[ResponseResult]
ResultCode=-3

Any ideas?
