[izpack-users] stage: uninstall - running bat-file with arguments

[J-Pro]

Good evening, miraodb.

Really, it could be a mistake. At least I know why bat-file was not 
outputted into the file. I just forgot to change > to >, really. But 
thanks for your help, I really didn't knew what to do.

I just tried to run corrected bat-file, it didn't help :(

I just changed this part as you've advised:

<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>


And after I run uninstall, It just asked me: "Do you want to continue?", I 
answered yes and it removed my webapp, after what I just pressed the Quit 
button on uninstall dialog window.


Where can there be a problem?


Thanks a lot in advance!
