[izpack-users] Passing arguments to executable

[Zycor.net Development Solutions]

But according to the DTD, it needs to be like this (Unless I'm missing 
something...)

Please help, I don't know what else to try....


<pack name="MSDE 2005" id="sqlExpress.package" required="no"
                installGroups="Stand Alone (Vista),Network Server (Vista)"
                loose="true">
            <description>The MS SQL Server Express</description>
                <file src="serverExpress" targetdir="$INSTALL_PATH"/>
                <executable
                    targetfile="$INSTALL_PATH/serverExpress/setup.exe"
                            stage="postinstall" keep="false" failure="warn">
                  <args>
                    <arg value="/qb" />
                    <arg value="INSTANCENAME=CORETALK" />
                    <arg value="ADDLOCAL=ALL" />
                    <arg value="SQLAUTOSTART=1" />
                    <arg value="AGTAUTOSTART=1" />
                    <arg value="SECURITYMODE=SQL" />
                    <arg value="SAPWD=root" />
                    <arg value="DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0" />
                  </args>
                </executable>
    </pack>
