Silent install using Flexnet Admin studio 7.5

Hi,
I'm trying to create a software package that uses silent install. I can't seem to get it to work. I used the Repackaging Wizard and in the command line arguments I put -s and -silent and nothing worked. Am I doing something wrong? :confused:

First, simply built a .msi package. Later from the command line, simply add /qn at the end of the package.

e.g:msiexec /i "packagename.msi" /qn
This will install your .msi in NO User Interface Mode.

msiexec /i "packagename.msi" /qb
This will install your .msi in Basic User Interface Mode (unattended install).

To know what further options are available to execute a msi package, simply do "/?" at the end of the package when you run it through command line.
e.g. Start >> Run >> "YourPackageLocation\packagename.msi" /?
You will get a box with your Windows Installer Version including a list of available options.
