Unable to Run Setup after Modifying the WRQMSI.ini File
Technical Note 1836
Last Reviewed 16-Dec-2004
Applies To
All Reflection Windows-Based Products version 12.0 only
Summary

If the values set in the [OPTIONS] section of the WRQMSI.ini file include spaces, such as USERNAME="Jane Johnson", users will get the following error when trying to install Reflection: "Incorrect command line parameter."

If you get this error when running setup with a custom edited WRQMSI.ini file, follow the steps below to resolve this problem.

  1. Download Setup_ver12_spaces.exe from the Attachmate Download Library.
  2. Navigate to the Reflection administrative installation point and save Setup_ver12_spaces.exe to this folder.
  3. In the same folder, locate the current Setup.exe file and rename it to Setup.old.
  4. Rename Setup_ver12_spaces.exe to Setup.exe.
  5. Re-run the installation.

For further information about configuring the WRQMSI.ini file, see the text of the WRQMSI.ini file.
