I had been checking for a Exit Code != 0 to detect errors returned by setup.exe but this does not appear to be foolproof. Several customers' deployments have returned non-zero exit codes, but SQL Express seems to be successfully installed.
I have not found a reference of possible codes returned and their meaning that I could use to fine tune our checking. Does one exist? Or am I going about this the wrong way and should just check for the existence of our instance after setup is complete?
thank you for any input.
I *think* the only other success error code you need to code around is error code 3010, which signifies success, but a reboot is necessary.
Here is a list of other possible Windows Installer error codes:
