Hi,

I'm having problem with the Eclipse Platform installation in silent mode.

First, I want to say that I searched ALOT on the web, all kind of forums (including this one), the eclipse web site, and I did not found an answer.
It's normally a very simple task and I preformed this hundreds of times for other installation programs.

So here it is:

I need to change the default installation path for the Eclipse platform V3.0 from "C:\Program Files\IBM\Eclipse SDK30\" to "D:\IBM\Eclipse SDK30\".

I tried all sorts of things. Generating a response file, using the SAVEINI and USEINI properties, etc... Nothing works.

I generated a log file using the following command:
msiexec /i "IBM WebSphere Eclipse Platform V3.0.msi" /l*v d:\Inst.log

Now after the installation, I looked inside the log and found some properties: AMQPGMFOLDER and INSTALLDIR.

So I tried a silent install with this command line:
msiexec /i "IBM WebSphere Eclipse Platform V3.0.m
si" AMQPGMFOLDER="D:\IBM\Eclipse SDK30" INSTALLDIR="D:\IBM\Eclipse SDK30" /l*v d
:\TryInst.log /qn

The installation did go well, but in the default path "C:\Program Files\IBM\Eclipse SDK30\" NOT the new one I wanted "D:\IBM\Eclipse SDK30"

Can someone help me with that?

Regards,

Xvlouis
