unattendant installation + error

Hi,

I am trying to do an unattendant installation of update manager, but for some reason i get the Windows Installer box, with the setup options.

here is are my test rules:

@echo OFF

set VCI_MEDIA=Z:\updateManager

@set SETUP=start /wait %VCI_MEDIA%\VMware-UpdateManager.exe /s /w

%SETUP% /v"/qr /L*v \"D:\vuminstall.log\" WARNING_LEVEL=0 INSTALLDIR=\"D:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\Infrastructure
" VMUM_DATA_DIR=\"E:\VUM\" VCI_DB_SERVER_TYPE=Custom DB_DSN="VUMDB" DB_USERNAME="s-sqlvum" DB_PASSWORD="password" VC_SERVER_IP=127.0.0.1 VC_SERVER_PORT=80 VC_SERVER_ADMIN_USER="administrator" VC_SERVER_ADMIN_PASSWORD="password" SOAP_PORT=8084 WEB_PORT=9084 SSL_PORT=9087 REBOOT=SUPPRESS"

Who sees the problem, i am looking at it for hours, but can't find it. In version 3 i never had probs installing VUM unattendant.

I see the forum removed some backslashes.

But i found the problem.

The parameter INSTALLDIR=\" is where you put the install directory cannot contain a backslash, also the parameter VMUM_DATA_DIR, cannot contain a backslash in it's path.

It looks like the installer is off.
