Revit 2019 *says* it fails, but installs normally

I'm starting to get familiar with PDQ but ran into an issue with Revit 2019 (Revit 2016 2017 and 2018 work fine). Whenever I deploy the package to a machine, it fails with "error code 1". In the meantime, I just have it continue even when it 'fails'.

    You need to install it silently. /qb is usually used with MSI files. You probably need to use /S.

    thank you for your reply. qb is for EXE according to Autodesk's site.

    Is there an option to get a log file on the install?

    If everything is OK, I guess you should add 1 to the list of success codes. You already have 0, 1641 and 3010. From the manual:

    Executable and batch installs typically report success with a return code of 0 (zero) but some also return success with other return codes. Usually these are warnings or other informational return codes that you can safely ignore. When creating an install, you can provide a comma-separated list of return codes that are considered a success. Any install that does not return one of these codes is flagged as an error and the return code displays.

    For example, the default codes of 1641 and 3010 are MSI codes indicating that the installation was successful but a reboot was started (1641) or a reboot is required (3010).
