Silent Shibboleth Windows Install

I'm using the latest x64 msi file(3.2.1.1) to install Shibboleth on a clean Windows server.  I'd like to silently install Shibboleth as part of a deployment script and since the msi installs Jetty and the Shibboleth Daemon Windows Service, I figured it was the easiest way to go.  When it's run with /qn, it hangs and never finishes, so I'm sure I'm just missing at least one, if not more initialization variables, but I'm not sure what those might be.  My end goal is an install at C:\Program Files (x86)\Shibboleth\IDP\ with an install of Jetty, not configured for AD, specifying DNS and IDP Scope(which is all set during GUI run of the msi).  I'm attempting to use the following command line:

msiexec /qn /i C:\Temp\shibboleth-identity-provider-3.2.1.1-x64.msi INSTALL_JETTY=TRUE CONFIGURE_AD=FALSE AD_USE_GC=FALSE DNSNAME=shibboleth-dev.csustan.edu IDP_SCOPE=csustan.edu

I've also tried setting the following just to see if I could get something to work:

TARGETDIR
AD_DOMAIN
AD_USER
AD_PASS

Logging doesn't seem to tell me much, but I may just not know what I'm looking for.  I know based on the logs that the /qn install isn't doing as much as not using /qn, but again, I'm just not sure of what to look for.  I've looked into the msi with Orca and I'm not sure what may be relevant.

Thanks!
