[izpack-users] stage: uninstall - running bat-file witharguments

[miraodb]

Hi,

I might be wrong but don't you have a >> in your xml ???
If that's the case it's wrong. You should use the entities instead.

Here is what i think the solution:

<executable targetfile="uninstall.bat" stage="uninstall" os="windows">
   <arg>$catalinaServiceName</arg>
   <arg>$catalinaServiceName</arg>
   <arg>$postgreInstallFolder</arg>
   <arg>$TOMSScelDelFilename</arg>
   <arg>$postgreUser</arg>
   <arg>$postgreServiceName</arg>
   <arg>$postgreServiceName</arg>
   <arg>&gt;&gt;</arg>
   <arg>C:\T_INSTALL.log</arg>
</executable>

I might be wrong but worth to try.

Cheers,
Fabrice
