silent install fails

Hi,

I have been trying with silent installation of my product using the following steps.
1.created response file using install.exe -r c:\myresponse.txt
2.Edited myresponse.txt and added INSTALLER_UI=silent and CHOSEN_INSTALL_SET=AppServer,FileMgr as these are the two variables I have used in my project to install the Application Server and File Manager components of our product.
3.Finally tried silent installation using install.exe -f myresponse.txt.

I see nothing gets installed.Could some one help me out with this please.

FYI:The response file myresponse.txt was placed at the same location where the install.exe is located and I enabled silent mode in InstallerUI->Look&Feel section of my project.

Thanks,
kveera
