Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 229706

(Firefox :: Installer, defect)

Description

[Sanne]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910 Firefox/0.10
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040910 Firefox/0.10

When trying to execute an unattended installation, wich should just install
firefox with the selected options in config.ini, a dialog window is showed
asking for target directory. The button "next" dosn't work, "cancel" cancels the
installation attempt.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run firefox installer, without going trough the wizard.
2. Find and copy from your %temp% directory the setup files the installer has
extracted to a new empty folder, which I will be calling "firefox setup folder".
3. Close the installer by cancelling the install process.
4. Edit "config.ini" in your new "firefox setup folder".
4b. Change "Run Mode=Normal" to "Run Mode=Silent".
4c. Save the config.ini and quit editor.
5. Run the firefox installer.
Actual Results:  
A dialog window is shown asking the destination directory.

Expected Results:  
Should have installed the program without asking anything, even without
confirmations to install.
