SUMMARY
=======

When you attempt to install Active Server Components (Outlook Web Access
Components) using unattended setup (setup /q [batchfile]), you may receive the
following error message :

   There is something wrong with the INI file. Make sure the command line
   specifies a full path to a valid INI file.

The option to install only Active Server Components on a Microsoft Internet
Information Server (IIS) computer without installing the core Exchange Server
services is not supported. Although you can specify "Existing Server Name" in
the Setup.ini file, this parameter is only used by Setup when joining an
existing site. It does not indicate the name of an Exchange Server computer to
be used by Outlook Web Access.
