msiexec /i tfs4jira-synchronizer-setup-4.2.3.msi WEBSITENAME="example" WEBSITEPORT=99
where WEBSITENAME is the name of your existing web site, under which you want to install the synchronizer, and WEBSITEPORT is its port - both of these options must be specified, otherwise the result is undefined. There is more information about this at
