Trying to do a silent install

C:\Temp\Adobe Captivate 5>Set-up.exe --mode=silent --deploymentFile=install.xml

C:\Temp\Adobe Captivate 5>Starting installer...
UI mode : Silent.
Some error occurred during installation. Installation cannot continue.
Exiting Installer with Code: 16

So, I want to find an option that will let me set a log file or something to get an idea of what "some error" might be.

For the archives... deploymentFile needed to be specified as the full path to the install.xml, enclosed in quotes.

It turns out that the option to record a response file in Captivate 4 ( --record=1 ) doesn't work with 5.

So... how do you record the install.xml file with Captivate 5?
