It appears the properties have been changed inside of the dialogs.

Comment 3 Timothy St. Clair 2011-09-13 16:44:52 UTC
W/modifications the installer will now use the following condor variables on the command line. 

msiexec /passive /Lv install.log /package
condor-X-Y-Z.msi CONDOR_HOST="my.condor.host.com" QMF_BROKER_HOST="my.qmf.broker.com"
CONDOR_ADMIN="foo" SMTP_SERVER="mail.corp.place.com" INSTALLDIR="C:\condor\test"
