InstallAnywhere Installer Exit Codes
Summary
This article provides a table of exit codes that may be returned during installation.
Synopsis
The following table describes the possible exit codes that may be returned during an installation. By default, an installation process returns zero (0) to the environment if it was successful and a nonzero value if it was not. To further debug an exit code, generate an installation log with verbose debug output. The steps on generating this log can be found here: Generating a Log for Install, Uninstall, and Build in InstallAnywhere
