Using Windows Installer on the command line

In addition to GUI tools such as InstallShield and Wise Solutions, you can use the Windows Installer service from the command line to create an installer from merge modules. You use it after you add a JRun merge module file to your application installer file with a merge tool.

To test the installation package:

Open a command prompt.
Enter the following command:
```
%> msiexec /I [package|product_code] [options]
```
package is the name of the Windows Installer package file.
product_code is the globally unique identifier (GUID) of the Windows Installer package.
options are msiexec options for log file configuration, interface levels, and other settings. Common options include /q which sets the level of user interface in the install and /L which defines the log file settings; for example:
%> msiexec /I MyApplication.msi /qn /L* logfile.txt
