[wix-users] Running installer inside 2016 TP5 docker container - Help Please :)

Wed May 25 06:39:24 PDT 2016

Ok, so I did have /i /quiet /qn arguments when I ran the installer.  So
that's one thing answered.

For the error code, I take it that the following file is what it is barfing
on?
C:\Windows\Installer\inprogressinstallinfo.ipi

I do not believe RDP is enabled for the container.  For silent install
should this really be a requirement?  I would think that just having remote
powershell/WMI enabled would be sufficient to install a product silently.
