Hi Ajay,

         I am going through this same requirement in my company now.

         I could see that this is a very old post.

         But I would like to contribute my approach for silent installation of QVS.

         The version we will be running is 11 SR1.

         So this may work for version 10. It may not.

         I am using the below command.

         "%systemroot%\System32\msiexec.exe" /i "<FileLocation>\QlikViewServerx64.msi" /qn /norestart /log "<LogFileLocation>\QlikView_Server_Install.log" AddLocal="DirectoryServiceConnector,ManagementService,QVS,WebServer,DistributionService,SupportTools" REGION_LIST="<Your Country>" AgreeToLicense="Yes" USERNAME="<Your User Name>" COMPANYNAME="<Your Company Name>" LOCALSERVICE="True"

         This installs the QVS under the local system account.

         We can then modify the services manually to run under a service account.

         I did not automate this as I do not want the password to be available in plain text.

         Also it can change at a later date.

         We should also add the service account to the QlikView Administrators group.

         This can be performed manually or using a script.

         Kindly let me know if you have found a way to include login credentials as part of silent installation.

Regards,

Kums
