How to read the setup.log file and ResultCode descriptions after a silent installation of MicroStrategy

Setup.log is the default name for the silent install log file. By default, the setup.log file is created in the directory containing the response file.
 
The setup.log contains three sections:
 

  • : denotes the version used in the silent install, and also denotes the file itself as a log file.
  • : this section will denote the application's name, version and company name.
  • : this last section contains the ResultCode indicating whether or not the silent install succeeded, and if not, what the error was.

The following documentation from IntallShield provides a listing of various ResultCode values:

The ResultCodes are as follows:
