We are trying to do a silent install of Oracle 12c client using a package. When done outside of the package the installation works. Through the package the process fails. Any advice appreciated.

Thanks
Joe

This is the code used to run the install:

C:\ora12_client_x86\win32_ora12_client\client32\setup.exe -silent -ignoreSysPrereqs -ignorePrereq -debug -force FROM_LOCATION=C:\ora12_client_x86\win32_ora12_client\client32\stage\products.xml "oracle.install.client.validate.clientSupportedOSCheck=false" "oracle.install.client.installType=Administrator" ORACLE_HOME="C:\oracle12\product\12.1.0\client_1" ORACLE_HOME_NAME="OraClient12Home1_32bit" ORACLE_BASE="C:\oracle12" DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=true -responseFile C:\ora12_client_x86\ora12_client_install.rsp

The last few lines of the log:
