Hi there,
We been using MySQL community edition as database for our application.

We install MySQL community edition for Windows silently with msiexec /i /qn command and extract manifest file and run MySQLInstallerConsole application with required parameters to install and configure mysql server silently.
This has been working so far until MySQL community installation 5.6.22.
After picking MySQL 5.6.23 community installer and installing mysql 5.6.23 msi installer silently, mysqlinstallerconsole application is asking for oracle account and won't get installed until user provides oracle support details. Also, we have noticed that mysqlconsoleinstaller runs in commercial mode even though installed from community installation.

Please let us know how to install MySQL server 5.6.23 silently using mysql community installer without prompting for oracle account.

Attaching the details of the commands that we execute with 5.6.21 and 5.6.23 to highlight the prompting of oracle account in silent installation.
