I run setup.exe -r -f1"c:\steve\uninst.iss" to record an uninstall of a program. The iss file gets created as expected. The contents are below:

[InstallShield Silent]
Version=v6.00.000
File=Response File
[File Transfer]
OverwrittenReadOnly=NoToAll
[{61B6D9BF-F2B7-4E3C-A1F8-C0EE10C27219}-DlgOrder]

Result=1
[Application]

[{61B6D9BF-F2B7-4E3C-A1F8-C0EE10C27219}-SdFinish-0]
Result=1
bOpt1=0
bOpt2=0

When I run setup -s -f1"c:\steve\uninst.iss" -f2"c:\steve\uninst.log" the app does not uninstall and my log contents are as follows:


[InstallShield Silent]
Version=v6.00.000
File=Log File
[ResponseResult]
ResultCode=-3

I am new at this stuff so I don't even know what the ResultCode=-3 even means let alone what is causing it. . .

Any Help would be appreciated. . . .

Hi Steve,

I'm not sure why exactly your response file is not doing its job. To help you debug, here is a list of for silent (un)installation error codes (http://helpnet.installshield.com/robo/projects/installshieldxhelplib/SetupLog.htm) along with some other potentially useful info.
