Prereq install says it fails, but it is installed.
I am using Installshield 2010 with Windows 3.01 for an Installscript Project. I can install jre-1_5_0_15-windows-i586-p.exe from inside the script with the command line options '/s /v "/qn REBOOT=Suppress JAVAUPDATE=0 WEBSTARTICON=0 NETSCAPE=0 MOZILLA=0 IEXPLORER=0"'. When I try to use the same command line (without the single quotes) to install the jre as a prerequisite, I get a message saying the jre install appears to have failed. Nonetheless, the jre was installed with the correct files and reg entries.
Yes, I know that Windows 3.01 is a bit behind the times. My instructions were to make minimal changes in the old installer.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Make sure the conditions that the prerequisite checks are being updated by the installation. If the checked conditions do not change, it is assumed that the installation failed. (A prerequisite with no conditions is special cased to always run, and never detect a failure.)
