Problem while installing in Silent mode
Hi all,

I have one installer/un-installer which installs the application successfully in Non-Silent mode. My installer has Language selection page, welcome page, InstallDir page and Install page integrated. I am trying to execute the installer by giving the /S option with the executable... but its not installing the application in silent mode. Can any one tell me what all modification I have to do in my code to make it install the application in Silent mode.

What eg. can I look in NSIS.
I looked into bigtest.nsi. It did not help.
Pls anyone reply.

Thanks in advance.

Most probably you didn't set a default install directory using InstallDir. In that case, the user must sepecify the installation directory using the /D= command line switch.

Thanks for your reply.
But I have set my InstallDir to valid path. Sorry I don't have install-page except the welcome, installation and finish page.
Also it does not create the uninstaller. What else could be wrong?

Attach a minimal failing example and I'll have a look.
