Put both cds into one folder on your server.

Using wpkg installed as a service seems not to work with this package! Use the task scheduler for this package!

One reason why it fails may be that the installer is broken - and doesn't work when it is run as a SYSTEM user (which means, the installer only works if it is run as an Administrator). Unfortunately, there is more badly packaged software like that.



excerpt from package.xml:

<package 
 id="ADS2004A" 
 name="Advanced Design System 2004A" 
 revision="1" 
 reboot="false" 
 priority="5">
 <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Advanced Design System  2004A" />
 <install cmd='\\server\wpkg\MSI\ADS\2004A\setup.exe /s /sms /f1"\\server\wpkg\MSI\ADS\2004A\silent\complete.iss" /v"/qn"'>
  <exit code="0" />
 </install>

 <remove cmd="" />

 <upgrade cmd="" />
</package>

You may exchange complete.iss with typical.iss.
To customize the response file, refer to Silent Installations.
