Editing the Response File

After you have generated a response file, you can edit the response file to modify local parameters. These parameters include Administrator User ID, Administrator Password and Retype Password.

When editing the response file, follow these guidelines:

• Do not modify parameters except to edit their values.

• Do not remove a parameter even if the parameter does not have a value.

• Do not add a parameter.

• Do not change the order in which parameters appear.

• Notice original types and formats and maintain them as you type new values.

• Replace any value that you delete. If the parameter is required, installation or configuration could fail if the parameter has been deleted.

• To add a component, change both the SunJavaES-count= (total) and SunJavaES-(count number)=SunJavaES\.... For example,

  Original:

  SunJavaES-count=2
  SunJavaES-0=SunJavaES\MessageQueue
  SunJavaES-1=SunJavaES\DirectoryServer

  Modified:

  SunJavaES-count=3
  SunJavaES-0=SunJavaES\MessageQueue
  SunJavaES-1=SunJavaES\DirectoryServer
  SunJavaES-2=SunJavaES\WebServer

  For more information on response file, see Appendix C, Example Response File: Silent Installation

• To add a subcomponent, change both total count and count number. The subcomponent is added after the main component. For example:

  SunJavaES-3=SunJavaES\AccessManager\AMAdministrationConsole

• The response file contains sections corresponding to the SdWelcome dialog box. For example:

  [{311E6252-893E-4445-B865-94DAFF5C500C}-SdWelcome-0]
  Result=1

  The section header [{311E6252-893E-4445-B865-94DAFF5C500C}-SdWelcome-0] indicates that the data pertains to the SdWelcome dialog box for a component with ProductCode (and PRODUCT_GUID) value {311E6252-893E-4445-B865-94DAFF5C500C }.

  The -0 at the end of the header indicates that this is the first call to SdWelcome. If the installation displayed a second SdWelcome dialog box, its header would end with -1.

  The Result=1 indicates the return value from the SdWelcome function. The return value 1 indicates that you clicked the Next button.

• In the SdSetupType dialog box, the Quick_Configure specifies Configure Automatically During Installation and Configure_Later specifies Configure Manually After Installation.
