Problem with msiexec thru command line

Hi,
I have a .msi file and I need to install it thru command line using a batch file. The problem is that I do not know what all parameters does this particular .msi file take. I tried using the associated 'setup.exe \r' command, but I didnt see an 'Setup.iss' file getting generated in my Windows folder(which is what some of the technical sites have mentioned).
Though a 'my.ini' did get created in 'Windows' folder but this ini file does not contain any of the parameters which I entered thru dialog box while manually installing the .msi.

Depending on your packaing tool your using some of them a tool for generating a transform, Wise as its InstallTailor.
If you don't have that; use setup.exe to install the application. Then look in the log file and search for "Command Line:".

You could also use DebugView to Monitor MSI installation actions in real time.
Rating comments in this legacy AppDeploy message board thread won't reorder them,
so that the conversation will remain readable.
