InstallShield Installer via SCCM Deployment Not Deploying Properly

I have an installShield installer (EXE that calls an MSI) that I am trying to deploy via SCCM and I am recieving very strange results during deployment to Windows 7 PC's.

For my deployment, I have created an answer file that i am calling through setup.exe.

If I right click the setup.exe and run as administrator, everything works properly (all files and services are installed).

If I run the setup.exe from a local batch file (right click, run as administrator) and reference the answer file, all files and services are installed.

If I call the setup.exe and reference the answer file through an SCCM package, the software deploys (reported success), but several of the services that it should install are missing.

If I manually run a repair after the deployment (via add/remove programs), the services are installed properly.

If I call a repair via the SCCM deployment, the services are not installed.

I am calling the setup with the following command:
setup.exe -s -f1"C:\temp\AnswerFile.iss" -f2"C:\temp\LogFile.log"

Another interesting thing to note is that all the log file says is that the install was successful in all cases (only 2 lines in log file).

Any advice to help me deploy this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
