Hi,
I am trying to install SQLServerExpress 2008 using command line arguments.

The command is

E:\UnInstall\SQLServer\SQLServerExpress2008\SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe / SQ/SAPWD="testpwd123"/security=SQL/BROWSERSVCSTARTUPTYPE="Enabled"/TCPENABLED="1"/NPENABLED="0"/INDICATEPROGRESS="True"/INSTANCENAME="CBEInstance"/IACCEPTSQLSERVERLICENSETERMS="True"


But after extracting files, when installation begins, it returns following error:

SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:

The syntax of argument "//" is incorrect. Please use /? to check usage.

Error code 0x84B40001
