I want to install a simple single server farm SP2013 Enterprise with your script, and after following all the instructions, Unfortunately at the " - Installing SharePoint 2013 binaries......." step the Product key dialog shows up as shown on the screenshot. Why this is happening ?
Shouldn't the installation proceeds by itself and picks the PIDKey value from the XML file? Why it doesn't?
One-Single farm info:
OS: Windows 2012 R2
SQL Server 2012 SP2
SP2013 media: SP1 Slipstream (Meaning the downloading ISO from MSDN contains SharePoint with SP1 together)
<Configuration Environment="SP2013Farm" Version="3.99.51">
<Install SPVersion="2013">
<ConfigFile>SP2013Farm.xml</ConfigFile>
<InstallDir>C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers</InstallDir>
<DataDir>C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers\SharePoint2013\Data</DataDir>
<PIDKey>MY-100%-CORRECT-KEY-VALUE</PIDKey>
<SKU>Enterprise</SKU>
<OfflineInstall>false</OfflineInstall>
<PauseAfterInstall>false</PauseAfterInstall>
<RemoteInstall Enable="false">
<ParallelInstall>false</ParallelInstall>
</RemoteInstall>
<AutoAdminLogon Enable="true">
<Password>Password</Password>
</AutoAdminLogon>
Could you please help out? Am I doing anything wrong?
Thank you !

See Brian,
Hopefully here are a better/organized details:
1) We used (https://autospinstaller.com/) > Filled all the details properly > Review & Download > Copied all the entire XML > Stored in notepade as: SP2013Farm.xml
2) All files, binaries, scripts and everything is on the C:\Temp, Meaning:
SharePoint ISO is in C:\Temp\SP\2013\SharePoint\
SP2013Farm.xml is in C:\Temp\SP\AutoSPInstaller
3) The posted XML above previously as copy/paste from the (SP2013Farm.xml).
4) I followed all instructions accurately as they are on: (https://autospinstaller.com/Guide), and when we drag the (SP2013Farm.xml) into the AutoSPInstaller.bat, It works and it has installed the prerequisites.
5) The failure/stuck is only when it reaches: " - Installing SharePoint 2013 binaries......." step where the Product key dialog will prompt and stuck....
Brain, It is a single-server installation => Should the very first step in (https://autospinstaller.com/) "Servers List:" left empty? Or, Do I need to fill the server's name ?
