silent install of soap toolkit...

[Guest]

I need to silently install the 3.0 soap toolkit (soapsdk.exe)...

The /Q option does not make it a qwiet install (so why is it named quiet?)...

Anyone have an idea on how to silently install this toolkit?

I've also tried the following to no avail:
soapsdk.exe /Q:A /C:"install.exe /Q"

Thanks for your attention to this matter

I figured this one out...

Its a two stop process...
(1) extract the msi from the exe using the command line options...
(2) use the MS standard installer package to silently install the package...

Given the soapsdk.exe in the current directory, here's what I did...
(1) extract the msi from the exe:
prompt> soapsdk.exe /T:"C:\extractMsiToThisFolder" /C

(2) use the MS standard installer package to silently install the package...
prompt> cd C:\extractMsiToThisFolder
prompt> msiexec /package soapsdk.msi /quiet

FYI, you can also silently uninstall the package using the MS installer...
prompt> msiexec /uninstall soapsdk.msi /quiet
