I don't know how to install an open client in unattended mode! Is there any help available or is there someone with an example?

Have you looked on the Sybase-website for documentation?

Yes, i have done.

Then you could have ended up at "Support" >> "Product Manuals" >> "Adaptive Server Enterprise"(for example) >> "English" >> "ASE 15.0". In the prominently visible "search documentation"-box, yo could have entered "unattended" and found some topics that are called "Installing the Client in Unattended (Silent) Mode".

Thanks Martijnvs,

i found out that i can use "setup.exe -r fullpath". This creates a response file like:

# Replay feature output

USER_INSTALL_DIR=C:\\Sybase

#Choose Install Set

CHOSEN_FEATURE_LIST=fopen_client
CHOSEN_INSTALL_FEATURE_LIST=fopen_client
CHOSEN_INSTALL_SET=Typical

But there is nowhere to find how i can use this response file for an attended installation!!

Is there nobody who uses the response file for an unattended installation??

Do i want to do something unusual?
