To install LiteSpeed with Unattended Installation
Run the following command:
msiexec /i "" SILENTINSTALLXML="" SILENTPHASE=0 /qn
Note: More information about a silent command line install and how to generate the “LiteSpeedRemoteDeploy_Server.xml “ (which is created via remote deploy) can be found in the LiteSpeed Help files under the section called "Install LiteSpeed Silently".
Note: You CANNOT do an in place upgrade if the “major” versions of LiteSpeed being used are the same. For example, upgrading LiteSpeed 8.7.304 to 8.7.351 will fail.
It works if the "major” versions of LiteSpeed being used are different. For example, upgrading LiteSpeed 8.7.304 to 8.7.1.001 will work.

Get the LiteSpeed Product Code GUID by running the following command in Windows PowerShell:
