Be aware:

Ensure that:

•all URL paths use forward slashes //
Example: http://myserver/mypath/mgsconfig.ini

•all UNC paths use backward slashes \\
Example: \\my server\mypath\mgsconfig.ini

 

Preferences set in the config file cannot be:

•Set as project variables because they are processed when the installation agent is first initialized, before any package files are read.

•Set on the command-line as they are intended to be under administrative, not user, control.
